SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING Deleted Scene Confirms That Miles Morales Exists In The Marvel Cinematic Universe
Though his existence was already alluded to during Peter's encounter with Aaron Davis in Spider-Man: Homecoming, this deleted scene makes it explicitly clear that Miles Morales is a part of The MCU...
Spider-Man: Homecoming features a scene in which Spidey attempts to intimidate small-time criminal Aaron Davis (Donald Glover) to get information about The Vulture and his operation. In it, Davis mentions that he has a nephew living in the city and comic book fans recognised this as a nod to Miles Morales, A.K.A the second Ultimate Spider-Man.
Now, a deleted scene - which looks like it might actually be an alternate post-credits sequence - has found its way online, and just in case there was any doubt about the identity of this nephew, Davis mentions Miles by name when he calls him.
Morales will feature in the upcoming animated Spider-Man movie from Sony, but it remains to be seen of we ever get a live-action incarnation of the character on the big screen. Still, this is a nice little Easter Egg and does open the door for a potential MCU appearance down the line.
