Me neither. I'd imagine w/ Marvel it has to be on purpose. Don't really understand the connection, but that could very well be the point.
Or they make Peter the new, inexperienced hero, being mentored by an established Miles;). (Doubt it highly)
Yeah, no. lol. I'm all for taking liberties with source material, especially when it furthers representation, but there should be some thought put into these decisions. For example, an adult Miles takes away the idea of him working through being a young POC hero in school, which has defined his entire history so far. Considering that The Prowler could fill the exact same role mentor role suggested here, it'd be a waste of resources to just toss a reinvented Miles there. Eh, I want Miles ASAP, but if he and Peter are in high school together, he won't be seen as Spider-Man as much as "black Spider-Man," worse than usual. Plus, he'd be relegated to a War Machine "black friend" status when he deserves to shine.
I think they start filming this or next week, so all the casting news makes sense. Read Marshall Green might not be a bad guy but......Uncle Ben in flashbacks
I hope Martin Starr is just playing the same character he played in The Incredible Hulk and is in desperate need of another pizza.
maybe he's playing his role from the veronica mars movie. And I agree with, if they're gonna use Miles, just jump right into it. I'd rather that than a stupid, "Hey Miles, how's it going?! *winks at camera*"
