Tinkerer was first rumored to be participating in Spider-Man: Homecoming back in May, shortly after The Vulture was first reported as the main villain.
The Tinkerer, one of the Marvel universe’s top scientific geniuses, debuted in 1962’s The Amazing Spider-Man #2, the same issue where Vulture first appeared.
Directed by Jon Watts, Spider-Man: Homecoming swings into theaters on July 7, 2017.
While he’s never been an A-list Spider-Man villain, he has made a name for himself as a weapons supplier to other super villains.
