Even ignoring Spider-Man baddies we’ve already seen on the big screen, like Green Goblin and Doctor Octopus, there are plenty of enemies from the Wall-Crawler’s rogues gallery who could fit as candidates, from Kraven the Hunter to Mysterio to Chameleon.
Aside from behind-the-scenes updates like Jon Watts likely returning to the director’s chair, nothing has been officially revealed about Spider-Man: Homecoming 2.
Unofficially, the sequel will reportedly feature a “femme fatale” as an important character, but that still doesn’t shed light on the villain Matt Damon was being looked at to play.
Regardless, whoever this baddie is, Damon won’t be the one playing him, but with production on Spider-Man: Homecoming 2 beginning later this year, hopefully we’ll find out who is hired for the role in the coming months or even weeks.
