I personally can't wait to see more of Michael Keaton in full on Vulture mode in Marvel's Spider-Man: Homecoming. I really liked from what I saw of him in the trailer, and I'm curious to see how his story arc plays out.
Variety recently had the opportunity to interview Keaton and he opened up a little bit on his portrayal of the classic Spider-Man villain and how he's a different kind of villain than what you might expect. When asked about playing the villainous role, he explained:
"But not to give too much away, but interestingly, he is and he isn’t [a villain], that character. He’s a really interesting — and more interesting than I thought — villain because there’s parts of him that you go, 'You know what? I might see his point.' Really, really. It makes it interesting to play."
He comes off as a pretty evil classic villain type dude in the trailer. Only an evil grown man would choose to go to war with a high school teenager! But there's obviously more to him than that, and we'll learn about that other side of him when the movie is released.
He goes on to say that he didn't hesitate in taking the role. I'm sure some people may have thought that since he played Batman and Birdman that maybe he thought it would be silly to take on another comic book type role, but nope.
Spider-Man: Homecoming will hit theaters on July 7, 2017.
