Spider-Man: Homecoming Trailer Breakdown - 27 Things You Need To See

8. Donald Glover And The Tinkerer

Spider Man Homecoming 30

Donald Glover's casting in Homecoming made a lot of people very happy, not least Glover himself. There was a campaign to have him play the web-slinger a few years back, and he's since gone on to voice Miles Morales in animated form.

His character is still being kept under wraps, but it does appear that he's a villain in the movie. He appears here with the Tinkerer (Michael Chernus), a tech specialist who supplies a number of Spidey villains - including Vulture - with weapons and various other gadgets. It may be he's the one responsible for Keaton's criminal getting a serious upgrade.
