Spider-Man: Homecoming is an upcoming American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man, produced by Columbia Pictures and Marvel Studios, and distributed by Sony Pictures Releasing. It will be the second reboot of the Spider-Man film franchise and the sixteenth film of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). The film is directed by Jon Watts, with a screenplay by Jonathan M. Goldstein & John Francis Daley and Watts & Christopher Ford and Chris McKenna & Erik Sommers, and stars Tom Holland, Michael Keaton, Zendaya, Donald Glover, Jacob Batalon, Laura Harrier, Tony Revolori, Tyne Daly, Bokeem Woodbine, Marisa Tomei, and Robert Downey Jr. In Spider-Man: Homecoming, Peter Parker tries to balance being the hero Spider-Man with his high school life as he deals with the threat of the Vulture.
Zendaya as Michelle:
One of Parker's classmates. Zendaya described the character as "very smart, very intellectual, [and] always in her books." Zendaya added that Michelle was not intended to be a love interest for Parker, saying, the character "very dry, awkward, intellectual and because she's so smart, she just feels like she doesn't need to talk to people... So she comes off very weird. But to me, she is very cool because she's deep. She's always thinking about something, always reading."
Donald Glover
Jacob Batalon as Ned Leeds: Parker's best friend and classmate. Holland described the character as a "complete gamer".
Tony Revolori as Flash Thompson:
Parker's rival and classmate. Revolori spoke about portraying Thompson, who is generally depicted as white in the comics, saying "I know how important the character is to the comic-book fans, so I’m trying to do him justice." Rather than being a physically imposing jock, Thompson was reimagined as "a rich, smug kid" to reflect modern views of bullying; this depiction was largely informed by Holland's visit to The Bronx High School of Science. Revolori's character was originally known as Manuel.
Tyne Daly
Bokeem Woodbine as Shocker: A criminal and an accomplice of Toomes, with powerful shock wave gauntlets.
Marisa Tomei as May Parker:
Peter's aunt. First reports of Tomei's casting caused backlash on social media, with comic book fans opining that the actress was "too young and attractive to portray the character", especially after the character had previously been depicted by older actresses than Tomei. Regarding this, Captain America: Civil War co-writer Stephen McFeely said that, for the MCU, they were trying to make Peter "as naturalistic as possible...That's partly why his aunt isn't 80 years old; if she's the sister of his dead mother, why does she have to be two generations ahead?"
Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark / Iron Man:
A self-described genius, billionaire, playboy, and philanthropist with electromechanical suits of armor of his own invention and is Parker's mentor. Sony Pictures chairman Thomas Rothman noted that, beyond the commercial advantage of featuring Downey in the film, the inclusion of Stark was important due to the relationship established between him and Parker in Captain America: Civil War, and felt that the development of that relationship would be a rewarding aspect of the film.Watts added, "You have to think about the implications of what he did in Civil War, which is pluck this 15-year-old kid our of obscurity and bring him to Germany to embark on this insane adventure. And then he just drops him off at the end of it while he continues his part of the story. There’s a lot of repercussions to that. Is it a first step towards Tony as some sort of mentor figure? Is he comfortable with that? Has he ever seen himself as that? Or is he the one who’s needed the mentoring along the way? I think it’s a really interesting facet of Tony Stark’s personality that we get to explore in his relationship with Peter."

Cast
Tom Holland as Peter Parker / Spider-Man:
A 15-year old who received spider-like abilities after being bitten by a genetically-modified spider. Producers Kevin Feige and Amy Pascal were impressed by Holland's performances in The Impossible, Wolf Hall, and In the Heart of the Sea, as well as his numerous screen tests for the role. Holland stated he would take inspiration from Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, the previous Spider-Man actors, but that he hoped to deliver something "new and exciting" with his take on the character. Holland elaborated, "This is a very different side to Spider-Man because you're going to see a kid dealing with everyday problems that a 15-year-old deals with as well as trying to save the city. He's conflicted because of what it is he's trying to do and what it is that's going on with the... Avengers in the universe. Obviously after [Captain America: Civil War] we still don't really know what's happening and he's in the middle of that world. So that's very exciting to explore that and also just to see a kid in high school figure out what to do with his super powers is really fun." Holland attended The Bronx High School of Science in The Bronx for a few days to prepare for the role.While there, he told a few of the students he would be portraying Spider-Man, who did not believe him, which Holland felt would "bode well for his performance... since it confirmed Parker as the web-slinger would be a hard sell." It took Holland between 25 and 45 minutes to get into costume, depending on if he had to wear a harness for stunts underneath the suit. He is signed for three films, not including his Captain America: Civil War appearance. Holland later expanded, saying he was signed for "three Spider-Man movies and three solo movies".
Michael Keaton as Adrian Toomes / Vulture:
A man with criminal tendencies who runs a New York salvaging company and has a suit consisting of mechanical wings. Director Jon Watts stated that Toomes would be different from other MCU villains like Thanos and Ultron, saying, "It's fun to think that if Spider-Man is a regular kid who becomes a superhero, there's got to be a bunch of regular guys who become supervillains, too." Keaton stated that Toomes was "interesting to play" and would not be completely villainous, saying "there’s parts of him that you go, 'You know what? I might see his point.'" Co-producer Eric Hauserman Carroll likened Toomes to becoming "the dark Tony Stark," noting "He thinks once he has this money and power, he'll have more control of his life." Keaton added, "There’s a B-story to this guy that’s kind of really interesting and really relevant. I would be lying if I said that’s why I took it, but as we talked about it and did, I went, 'Whoa, there’s some layers to this guy.' … This director’s [Jon Watts] is a very bright guy, and he wanted to bring this issue out. A lot of people are going to like him more than they probably want to, would be my guess." Keaton was not hesitant to portray another comic book character, despite initially declining the role because of scheduling conflicts, after previously portraying Batman in Tim Burton's 1989 film and its sequel Batman Returns (1992). Watts was inspired by John C. Reilly's Nova Corpsman Rhomann Dey from Guardians of the Galaxy for Toomes' "ground-level perspective" in the film.
