This actor who appeared in “Spider-Man: Homecoming” will lead a Spider-Man Villain spin-off film
Sony has announced that a Spider-Man spin-off movie is under production. Here’s who playing the main character.
The main character of the upcoming Spider-Man spin-off movie is a familiar character to fans as he already appeared in the movie “Spider-Man: Homecoming”.
It’s Donald Glover, 39, who played Aaron Davis. World-renowned singer and actor Donald Glover, also known by the name Childish Gambino, had a minor appearance in the 2017 movie “Spider-Man: Homecoming” as Aaron Davis, a criminal who tried to buy weapons for the Vulture gang, a group of villains.
Aaron Davis is also the uncle of Miles Morales, who becomes the second generation Spider-Man after Peter Parker’s death in the comics.
In the film at the time, Aaron Davis tried to buy a handgun, but when he was offered a powerful railgun, he panicked and refused, so he was in danger of getting shot. At this time, the deal was broken when Spider-Man Peter Parker appeared.
After that, Aaron Davis told Spider-Man that his nephew lived in town and informed Spider-Man of the Vulture’s next deal.
Glover had a small role in the film, but he made an impression on the audience with his important role.
On December 16th (local time), according to a report by the Hollywood Reporter, Donald Glover will lead and produce the next spin-off film of Sony’s Spider-Man universe.
Donald Glover will play Antoine Delsoin, aka Hypno-Hustler. While most villains in Spider-Man are scientists, Hypno-Hustler is a musician turned villain.
Hypno-Hustler, lead singer of the band Mercy Killers, first appeared in Marvel Comics Amazing Spider-Man #24, published in November 1978.
He is a villain who uses a hypnotic guitar to rob the audience of their valuables while performing. He’s not a famous villain, but in the comics, Hypno-Hustler has earned a reputation as a humorous villain.
Donald Glover (Childish Gambino) is actually a famous rapper and singer, so fans’ expectations are rising with the news that he will transform into Hypno-Hustler.
