Do we have our Vulture for Spider-Man: Homecoming?

It’s being reported that Michael Keaton is in talks to play the villain in the 2017 Spider-Man reboot starring Tom Holland.

Variety reported the news, but the specific character Michael Keaton is in talks for is presently unknown.

A previous rumor mentioned Vulture might be a villain in Spider-Man: Homecoming.

Vulture would be a rather interesting choice for Keaton as he recently played another feathered character with Birdman. Of course, Michael Keaton is also known for playing Batman in the 1989 Tim Burton DC movie.

Spider-Man: Homecoming has a July 7, 2017 release directed by Jon Watts starring Marisa Tomei as Aunt May and Zendaya as Michelle.
