Michael Keaton Comments On SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING Role; More Cool Set Photos Surface

It's not much, but Michael Keaton has commented for the first time on starring in Spider-Man: Homecoming. If that doesn't take your fancy though, we also have a spectacular new batch of set photos!

Yesterday, Sony Pictures boss Tom Rothman revealed that Michael Keaton has yet to start shooting his role in Spider-Man: Homecoming. Rumours point to him playing The Vulture, but like every other cast member in the movie, that has not been confirmed. During a recent chat with Haute Living, the Oscar nominated actor neither confirmed nor denied that, but did at least comment on the movie.

I warned you that this isn't much, as all he told them in the otherwise very in-depth and interesting piece is that Spider-Man: Homecoming is a, "big budget movie that will be an awful lot of fun." So, that's pretty vague, but at least we know Keaton is looking forward to starring in the reboot!

On the plus side, we have some cool new set photos from the movie showing more of Tom Holland's wall-crawler swinging into action and stealing a bicycle from one of the crooks he takes down. The images are copyrighted, so you'll have to follow the link in the Tweet below to check out the gallery.

And I still see people saying that it hasn't been "comfirmed" that Keaton is in the movie. SMH.

But hey those comments are....interesting. I'm hoping this isn't another robocop remake or erbie fully loaded for him. We want a great movie here Keaton, Don't phone it in.

@Mrcool210 - true. Hopefully he delivers like he did for Birdman and Spotlight

I think Keaton would make an excellent Norman Osborne but I'm sure he'll do great as The Vulture.

He's going to kick Spider-Man's ass!
