Via The Hollywood Reporter, relative newcomers Isabella Amara (Melissa McCarthy's The Boss), Jorge Lendeborg Jr. (The Land) and JJ Totah (Glee, Other People) have joined the cast of Jon Watts' Spider-Man: Homecoming. Of course, as with all the recent cast additions, the identity of their characters has not been disclosed. However, given their relatively young ages, it looks as if these characters will be more of Peter's Midtown High contemporaries.
To date, the full cast for the film includes Tom Holland, Robert Downey Jr., Michael Keaton, Marisa Tomei, Zandaya, Donald Glover, Logan Marshall-Green, Kenneth Choi, Tony Revolori, Michael Barbieri and Laura Harrier.
Shooting is expected to commence before the end of June at Atlanta's Pinewood Studios.

UPDATE #1: According to Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 director James Gunn, Spider-Man: Homecoming has actually started filming today. Said Gunn [via Facebook], "Many blessings today to the star of Spider-Man: Homecoming, Tom Holland, and the film's director, Jon Watts (standing in here for Jon is some dude that was passing by), as they begin their shoot in Atlanta just as we are ending ours. I don't think we could pass the Marvel baton to two nicer, better guys who care more about what they're doing. Kill it!"
UPDATE #2 Tom Holland has also confirmed via Instagram that filming kicks off today.
