Don't mind Karen Page coming back. But I'd much rather see Rosario's character come back, felt like she was more interesting.

Donald-Glover-and-Spiderman-Split-Publicity-H-2022.jpg

Donald Glover is set to join Sony Pictures’ universe of Marvel characters, as the star and producer of a movie based on the Spider-Man villain the Hypno-Hustler. The project is in its earliest stages, with no script or director, but Myles Murphy (the son of Eddie Murphy) is attached to write the screenplay.

The Hypno-Hustler, who first appeared in Marvel comics in 1978, is one of Spider-Man’s more obscure villains, with the ability to hypnotize his victims with his guitar. By day, he’s known as Antoine Desloin, lead singer of a band called the Mercy Killers — they use their music to rob their audiences.

As is the case with all of Sony’s live-action Marvel movies, Spider-Man himself almost certainly won’t be a part of the project. But Glover’s involvement is noteworthy for Spidey fans, as the actor-musician has been a fan-favorite to play the web-slinger ever since a 2010 article by writer Marc Bernardin that pointed out there is no reason why Spider-Man has to be white. Glover eventually appeared in 2017’s “Spider-Man: Homecoming” as Aaron Davis, the uncle of Miles Morales — the Black teenager introduced in Marvel comics in 2011 who eventually becomes Spider-Man. Glover also voiced Miles in the 2015 Disney XD series “Ultimate Spider-Man.”

The Hypno-Hustler is the latest personality from Sony’s trove of Spider-Man characters to get a feature film treatment, following 2018’s “Venom,” 2022’s “Morbius,” 2023’s “Kraven the Hunter” and 2024’s “Madame Web.”

Glover will next appear opposite Maya Erskine (“Pen15”) in the Amazon Prime Video series “Mr. and Mrs. Smith,” which he co-created and executive produces.

The Hollywood Reporter first reported the news.

I dunno about you guys but I'm all in for that project. I think Donald Glover is perfect for that part too.

I really like Glover but after Morbius and the two Venom movies, it's hard to get excited for whatever Sony is trying to do

Bro who the fuck wants to see this lmao. They already fucked up Venom and Morbius and now I’m supposed to get excited for some random ass character that no one’s ever heard of. Spare me.

I think it sounds awesome personally but I get the Sony movies haven't got the best track record. I quite like when they give the more obscure characters some spotlight.

if he's producing, it will likely be very good. Unless you don't like his other work, then I guess those people will def hate it.

I would say Glover with his skills and even a Character like Hypno-Hustler which is an Character who hasn't been used in the Comics can really open up some things I must say. He's not gonna look like that he's going to have all that charisma while adding some new things to the Character no doubt. I get it people haven't been liking the Venom Movies or Mobius(haven't seen as of yet), but theirs enough positive things that are going to happen I feel. You've got Kraven The Hunter played by Aaron Taylor Johnson, and the Madame Web Movie which people are saying could be not origins Story, but rather a Movie of Time Travel saving Peter's future. If not for that rumor on the Plot I have enough faith with the Cast involved that Film will do good to great.

So this character isn't "mainstream enough"?

Neither were the Guardians of The Galaxy.......as long as Donald Glover is given carte blanche with it, I'd be fine with this.
