Following the talks about the official title of Jon Watts' upcoming Spider-Man film reboot, "Spider-Man: Homecoming," it is revealed that "Birdman" and "Spotlight" actor Michael Keaton might join the the project and the film is rumored to feature the villain Vulture.

Sources told Variety that Keaton is in early talks to be part of Watts' "Spider-Man: Homecoming, " which stars Tom Holland as Peter Parker, known more as Spider-Man. As per the publication, the "Birdman" and "Spotlight" actor might play a villain in Marvel's coming-of-age film.

Keaton has shifted roles in the comic book realm, as he formerly played the role of the Dark Knight in Tim Burton's 1989 "Batman." Aside from his roles as the Caped Crusder, Keaton is also known for his roles in Alejandro Inarritu's comedy drama "Birdman" and Tom McCarthy's historical drama "Spotlight." The actor is also set to appear in Burton's fantasy film sequel "Beetlejuice 2," Michael Cuesta's action thriller "American Assassin," and John Lee Hancock's historical drama "The Founder."

If Keaton's villain role is minor, the actor could play the role of the Spider-Man villain named Vulture, as the character is rumored to appear in Watts' "Spider-Man: Homecoming." According to Birth Movies Death, the flying villain is set to join Spider-Man's world in Marvel, but he is not going to be the main villain. Another possibility is that Keaton would play the film's big bad and not the likes of Vulture.

Meanwhile, Spider-Man is set to debut himself in Marvel's Cinematic Universe in Joe Russo and Anthony Russo's upcoming Marvel Comics film "Captain America: Civil War."

As per previous trailers, fans can expect the iconic web-slinger to be part of Iron Man's team, along with Black Widow, Vision, War Machine, and Black Panther. They are set to a fight against Captain America's team, which includes Hawkeye, Bucky the Winter Soldier, Falcon, Scarlet Witch, Ant-Man, and reportedly, Doctor Strange.

Watts' "Spider-Man: Homecoming" is set to premiere in theaters in the United States on July 7, 2017 while the Russos' "Captain America: Civil War" hits theaters on May 6.
