Donald Glover's character in Spider-Man: Homecoming was successfully kept quiet almost all the way up to release, but it was eventually revealed that he was playing Aaron Davis, a low level criminal otherwise known as Prowler in the comics.

Most interestingly, he mentions his nephew, who is of course Miles Morales in the comics. You know, the other Spider-Man.

Even if he doesn't appear as Spider-Man, it seems pretty likely we'll see him in some form in a future Spider-Man movie. Let's just hope it's also in the MCU.
