Michael Keaton Talks Potential Spider-Man 4 Return as the Vulture

As a seasoned cinephile with decades of movie-watching under my belt, I can confidently say that Michael Keaton‘s return as The Vulture in Spider-Man 4 would be an absolute delight. His portrayal of Adrian Toomes was one of the most intriguing and well-executed villain performances in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.


Speculation about Spider-Man 4 abounds online, particularly concerning its potential antagonist. Michael Keaton has fueled these rumors by hinting at a possible comeback to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Previously, Keaton portrayed Adrian Toomes, also known as The Vulture, in Tom Holland’s debut film as Spider-Man, Spider-Man: Homecoming. Toomes is one of the MCU’s most compelling villains, and fans eagerly anticipate seeing his character again – perhaps as part of the Sinister Six.

During an interview with Screen Rant to discuss his latest film, “Goodrich,” Michael Keaton hinted at a possible reunion with the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Given that both “Goodrich” and “Spider-Man: Homecoming” were produced by Amy Pascal, the interviewer probed if there had been any discussions about “Spider-Man 4.” With Destin Daniel Cretton now confirmed as the director for the upcoming film, Keaton’s enthusiastic response suggested he enjoyed playing the character, stating, “Wow, that’s an intriguing character, that guy.

The actor has clarified that he hasn’t had any conversations with Marvel Studios or Sony about appearing in Spider-Man 4, and neither has anyone from the film’s production team approached him. However, Keaton hinted at the possibility of the Sinister Six appearing together in future projects by making a cameo in Morbius. Characters belonging to this villainous group have been gradually introduced across the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Sony’s separate Spider-Man universe. Nevertheless, based on the actor’s statement, it seems that Spider-Man 4 might not be the film where the Sinister Six finally unite.

It was an enjoyable experience indeed, yet I must confess, I haven’t shared it with anyone.” [In a light-hearted manner] You know, I tend to avoid conversations. Truth be told, I’m not particularly fond of chit-chat or people in general.

Due to the massive achievement of “The Penguin” and all the buzz about Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) ventures such as “Avengers: Doomsday”, “Secret Wars”, and now “Spider-Man 4”, there’s a sense that superhero productions are experiencing a bit of a comeback. Lately, the internet has been buzzing with discussions about Tom Holland’s fourth solo Spider-Man movie.

Two widely circulating speculations center on the antagonist of the movie. One persistent theory posits that Tom Hardy’s character Eddie Brock/Venom might transition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, accompanied by a few other Symbiotes. However, recent statements from Hardy indicate that Venom: The Last Dance will mark his final portrayal of Eddie Brock, leaving room for Symbiotes to potentially feature in some capacity within the film.

A different theory circulating hints at Robert Downey Jr.’s character Dr. Doom potentially serving as the primary villain in the upcoming Spider-Man 4. Some fans find this idea intriguing given Peter Parker’s close bond with Tony Stark and the profound impact of Stark’s sacrifice on Parker, as depicted in Spider-Man: Far From Home.
