Iron Man in Homecoming! (#182)

It has been confirmed that Robert Downey Jr's Iron Man will be making an appearance in Spider-Man: Homecoming, releasing in 2017. This will most likely be a follow up to the events in Captain America: Civil War (releasing in less than a week by way! ...At least in the UK whereas in America there are still like two weeks left. Sorry, US citizens...), where Spider-Man will be siding with Tony Stark's team (at least initially). In the comic books, Tony designs an 'Iron Spider' suit for Peter Parker/Spidey, so perhaps something like that could come into play in Homecoming. I'm sure there'll at least be a nod to it though. In similar news, Michael Keaton, who was rumoured to be playing a villain in Homecoming, will apparently not be in the film. We'll just have to see who the villain will be, though personally I'm hoping for somebody we haven't seen before. The Green Goblin's been done in both the original Spider-Man and The Amazing Spider-Man 2, so I'd love to see somebody like the Vulture, the Hobgoblin, or even a more obscure one like the Shocker, I like that guy. I would be fine with seeing a villain we've had before in a Spider-Man movie though, like Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus or Electro, as I'm sure Marvel Studios would nail the performance as usual.


Speaking of which though, aren't Sony still making a Venom spin-off movie even though The Amazing Spider-Man series kinda flopped? And I even heard that they're making a separate animated film of Spidey that will be in cinema, but that sounds really weird. Speaking of which though, there are supposed to be plans for a live action Sonic movie in two or three years, I hear! Honestly, it'll probably be a bit sucky, but who knows, it could be great. I'll definitely be watching it either way :)
