Another Z-list Spider-Man character being developed into a feature

Donald Glover is attached to star in and produce a movie based on Spider-Man villain Hypno-Hustler, based on Sony’s Universe of Marvel Characters.

Michael Murphy, the son of actor and comedian Eddie Murphy, is attached to write the script. The untitled project is in very early development.

Hypno-Hustler is a rather villain who first appeared in 1978’s “Peter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-Man” #24, and was created by Bill Mantlo and artist Frank Springer. The character’s unmasked name is Antoine Desloin, and he is the lead singer of the Mercy Killers. Hypno-Hustler uses hypnosis equipment in his instruments to rob the audience. In the comics, Spider-Man was able to defeat Hypno-Hustler by removing his headphones, causing him to become a victim of his own hypnosis.

So is he reprising his character from Homecoming?No he played Aaron Davis in that who becomes Prowler, who honestly seems like a much more marketable character.
