Spider-Man: Homecoming actress teases important, secret role in film

Spider-Man: Homecoming director Jon Watts explains the origins of Peter Parker’s cameo in Iron Man 2. But it turns out Peter’s been looking up to Tony a lot longer than that. Near the end of the 2010 flick, a young boy in an Iron Man mask at the Stark Expo (in Queens) defiantly stands up to Hammer drone, only to be saved by Tony Stark himself seconds later.

Tom was thoroughly impressed with the finished product, but no one was more proud of his onscreen work than his dad Dominic, who has never been a fan of superhero films.

With Tomei having such an active part in the casting, that might mean Xiao has a deeper involvement with Peter’s Tom Holland. It is also used to refute everything we thought about Donald Glover’s character in Homecoming, as he will actually play Aaron Davis, who is in the comics uncle of Miles Morales, a thief known as Prowler. “Also scheduled to make appearances are Jon Watts (director), Kevin Feige (producer), Amy Pascal (producer), and so many more”. “I can confirm that is Peter Parker”, Holland stated boldly, before clarifying, “I can confirm that, as of today”. Basically, he’s just watching the old movies as a fan. “They have rights to other characters, and I think they’re being very smart in saying ‘We have to make a great Venom movie.’ They’re off to a good start hiring Tom Hardy”. “That was the world he grew up in and that was one of the key ideas of creating this character, so that he could have something that he wanted to be that he wasn’t a part of”. “It’s the ideal way for me to dive into the Marvel universe, to focus on these two women who I really respect and can’t wait to bring to life”. While the fan theory might be true retroactively, it couldn’t have been completely true at the time.

Pascal said, “Know what I think?” Watts continued, “I was watching all these other movies and being like, ‘What if that little kid at the Stark Expo was Peter Parker?” Interestingly, but another reveal from Kevin Feige teed up a similar origin story.
