Spider-Man: Far From Home - Everything We Know So Far
4. Along With Some C-List Villains...
Marvel
Although Hydro-Man was busy terrifying children in the nineties Spider-Man animated series, in the comics, his reputation doesn't precede him nearly as much. He's always been considered something of an ersatz Sandman but, if rumours are to be believed, he could be making his way to the MCU next year - at least according to rumours.
MCU Cosmic also report that none other than Molten Man could appear in Far From Home too. In the comics, he was actually associated with Spencer Smythe, who's also rumoured to have a role in the sequel.
Either way, while these two elemental-based supervillains won't be getting fans massively excited, their presence shouldn't be cause for concern. Homecoming also juggled a collection of Spidey villains without saturating the story, so we can expect the sequel to hopefully do the same.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
