on MCU actor Kenneth Choi joins 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' in a new role

If Spider-Man: Homecoming is heading back to high school, you have to have a principal. That’s exactly the role that The People vs. O.J. Simpson star Kenneth Choi just landed, according to Deadline.

What’s interesting is Choi already had a role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He played soldier Jim Morita in 2011’s Captain America: The First Avenger and on TV in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.. I guess Marvel is hoping that people don’t notice, or maybe they just don’t care.

Spider-Man: Homecoming starts shooting in Atlanta, Georgia later this month, and is scheduled to hit theaters on July 7, 2017.

    I ain’t even Asain, but this is racist asf! They expect us not to notice cuz they think we can’t tell the difference between Asians… I at least hope they say he’s related to the character he played in The First Avenger , I could be content with that

      Yeah! And DC and Marvel expect us not to notice that J.K Simmons is both J. Jonah Jameson AND Commissioner Gordon? Ha! That facial hair and those muscles can’t fool me. They’re obviously Simmonsist.

      OR, they just like this guy’s performances and want to give him a new role.

        Yeah but J.K. Simmons roles are in separate universes. This is supposed to take place in the same universe. Why don’t they give Clark Gregg a new role as the high school principal?
