What We Know

Unlike the other entries on this list, we do know one key piece of identifying information about Numan Acar's character: his name, which will be Dimitri.

But other than that, we're completely in the dark. One important thing to note is that shooting on the film began around the exact same time Acar was cast, indicating that his role isn't a major one. If it was, it's more likely he would've been brought onboard much further out from the shoot start date.

Who He Might Be Playing

That very specific character name suggests that Acar is playing Dmitri Smerdyakov - aka the Chameleon - a popular Spidey villain from the comics. Crucially, he hasn't been depicted on the big-screen before, which does increase his chances of being in a new Spider-Man movie somewhat.

Far From Home is expected to feature a handful of different bad guys, so it wouldn't be totally surprising to see Chameleon pop-up for a quick sequence near the start of the film, showing Spidey going about his crime-fighting activities.
