UPDATE: FARGO Season 2 Star Bokeem Woodbine Has Joined The Cast Of SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING As A Villain
The cast of Spider-Man: Homecoming is growing bigger each day, and the latest impressive addition to the adult side of the reboot is Fargo breakout Bokeem Woodbine. Hit the jump for details...
Spider-Man: Homecoming is now shooting, but with every day that passes, the cast continues to grow. The latest addition hasn't been revealed by one of the Hollywood trades, but by a fan who bumped into Fargo star Bokeem Woodbine. He played gangster Mike Milligan there, but is also known for appearing in Riddick, Southland, and Total Recall along with almost countless other TV shows.
Who is he playing? Like pretty much every other actor who has been added to the cast lately, we have no idea, though Daily Bugle editor Robbie Robertson feels like a good fit! Of course, there's every chance he could have a very minor role here, possibly playing just a teacher in Peter's high school or something along those lines. Fingers crossed we get an official cast/character list in the near future!
Tom Holland, Marisa Tomei, Michael Keaton, and Robert Downey Jr. lead Spider-Man: Homecoming's massive ensemble, and the Jon Watts helmed reboot is currently set to be released on July 7th, 2017.
UPDATE: According to The Hollywood Reporter, Woodbine has indeed joined the cast of the movie, but he'll join Michael Keaton and Logan Marshall-Green as a bad guy. Who will he be playing? We don't know, but that now gives Spider-Man: Homecoming a total of three villains, a number which didn't work out too well for Spider-Man 3 and The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Stay tuned for updates.
