PIC: First look at the new villain in Spiderman: Homecoming

Paul Moore

Shocker.

Things that we wan’t to see in the new Spiderman film. 1) No emo fringes, tantrums or dancing struts down the street. 2) No painful backstory where we see poor Uncle Ben biting the big one, but not before he gets to tell Peter that “with great power comes great responsibility” of course. 3) Some kick-ass action and deadpan one-liners.

Tom Holland’s stellar cameo in Captain America: Civil War has got our spidey senses tingling because it seems like he really understands what makes the character tick, but as we all know, a hero is only as good as the villain he faces.

Good news then because it’s looking like the web crawler will be squaring off against two adversaries in  Jon Watts’ new film.

It has been widely rumoured that Michael Keaton will be taking on the role of Vulture while Bokeem Woodbine, the chilling Mike Milligan in Fargo Season 2, will be playing Shocker.

The first images of Shocker has been released online and they’ve only increased our excitement. July 7th can’t come quickly enough.
