There wasn’t any casting information, but recent rumors point to Keanu Reeves wanting to play the role – and another suggesting that former Spider-Man actor Andrew Garfield is the top choice by Marvel Studios.
Feige has spoken about the character in the past, confirming in 2018 that the character was a part of their plans:
“Yes. Does that mean five years from now, 10 years from now, 15 years from now? There are stacks of character cards that we have in our, in our development offices, which we look at. Which we pull for him, which we discussed.”
It turns out that show was the plan all along. Here’s hoping it delivers for fans of the character who have been waiting all of this time.
More on this as it develops.
