SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING Adds CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER Actor Kenneth Choi

According to Deadline, Kenneth Choi (Sons of Anarchy, The People Vs. O.J. Simpson, The Wolf of Wall Street) has joined the cast of Jon Watts' upcoming solo Spidey flick, Spider-Man: Homecoming.

Fans will no doubt recognize Choi from Captain America: The First Avenger, but obviously he won't be reprising the role of Jim Morita for this movie. Apparently he'll actually be playing the principal of the school Peter Parker attends.

Spider-Man: Homecoming will also star Tom Holland in the title role, as well as Marisa Tomei as Aunt May, and Michael Keaton as the still unnamed villain. The movie is set to hit theaters on July 17, 2017.

I don't mind them recycling actors if they have small parts, but this guy actually had a solid amount of dialogue. I disapprove.

Futher proof that using actors from the Tv shows in different roles in the movies should not alarming considering they done the same with the movie actors.

"Hey guys, we found the perfect guy for this role! Kenneth Choi... he nailed all of the auditions, and he's exactly what we're looking for!"

"Sorry, he had about 4 mins of screentime in another Marvel movie... can't use him, the fans won't like it."

"Ah well, back to the drawing board..."

Eh, no.
