In what will surely spawn of millions of fan theories, Kenneth Choi, who played Jim Morita in Captain America: The First Avenger, has joined the cast of Spider-Man: Homecoming as the principal at Peter Parker’s high school. Is he the first character’s grandson? Is time travel involved? Is Hydra? Tom Holland will play Parker (who is also Spider-Man *gasp*), while Marisa Tomei will play Aunt May. Robert Downey Jr. will also be mucking around as Iron Man. Choi most recently appeared as Judge Ito in The People v. O.J. Simpson, though sadly he was not a dancing Ito. Maybe he can make up for that in Spider-Man?
