Tom Holland Wants Unused Villains Throughout His 'Spider-Man' Journey
In just under two weeks, Spider-Man's first solo venture into the Marvel Cinematic Universe will be seen by MCU fans across the globe, as the web-slinging superhero (played by Tom Holland) swoops onto the big screen in 'Spider-Man: Homecoming'.
"I think Spider-Man is a character that has so many rich villains," the actor said in a chat with CinemaBlend. "We should be exploring people that we haven't seen before, rather than people we have seen in the past."
Now, if Holland has any say in who he'll be facing in the 'Homecoming' sequel that's set for 2019, his comments count out the likes of fan-favourite Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus and Sandman. Venom, Electro and Lizard wouldn't be considered either having already been seen in movie theatres over the years, but that still leaves a varied and exciting selection of villains from Spidey's rogues gallery to choose from.
One of those is the Jackal; somebody that those working on 'Homecoming' may already have been teasing through a tie-in mobile app for the new film. Allowing those who download it to take a look through Peter Parker's phone, they'll find a text that mentions "Ms. Warren"; the surname of Miles Warren - the man who goes on to become the Jackal.
Of course, there's always the chance that this could simply be a little Easter Egg for major comic book fans to find and enjoy. Whatever the case may be, there are plenty of directions the 'Homecoming' sequel could go in. We can't wait to see what the big wigs have planned.
