Now that the spider is returning to marvel, who do you want behind the mask of the most popular comic book hero on the planet?

I'm largely unfamiliar with his work- can someone enlighten me why Donald Glover comes up so much? Would like to know a bit more about him.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Donald Glover needs to be the new Peter Parker:

latest


The guy can do both serious roles and comedy roles very well, he has a very natural sense of comedy, he has expressed an interest in the role in the past and Marvel apparently made a few nods towards him in the comics after the previous fan campaign to get him the role. He would fit in great with the other guys in the MCU, and casting a black actor in the part would get rid of the white guy syndrome of the MCU. Apart from Panther all the black characters are purely sidekicks so far. It would also set the new Spiderman apart from the previous attempts nicely.

The actor doesn't matter that much to me, how they characterize Peter will matter much more. I know some people don't like the original trilogies deliberate throwbacks to cartoonishly nerdy and inept Parker, but that's the character that's iconic for me.

Someone who can do quick wit and isn't white. Glover can not compete on screen with the other people he'd be up with in a cross over film he doesn't have the presence he's a TV actor. Honestly I'd love to see a Hispanic spider man.
 
If it's actually adult Spidey as rumoured, Jake Gyllenhaal or Joseph Gordon-Lewitt. Grant Gustin would also be one of my top choices but he might be off-limits due to his involvement in The Flash.
