The past few days have been quite momentous for fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s resident wall-crawler. It’s been confirmed that the upcoming Spider-Man: Brand New Day is now in production and, all the while, fans have been treated to a BTS video featuring Tom Holland. (With that, fans have all the thoughts on Holland’s new suit.) Some big news also dropped, as it was confirmed that Michael Mando would reprise his role as Mac Gargan a.k.a. Scorpion. Now, Mando is really getting me excited due to his confirmation post.
Although news of Scorpion’s return came from legitimate news outlets, Michael Mando’s role was not officially confirmed by Marvel Studios or Sony. With that, I really appreciate that the actor himself had no problem lending credence to this exciting turn of events. The actor took to Instagram to share a teasy selfie. The black-and-white pic shows Mando facing a mirror, with only half of his face being visible. What can be seen, however, is the scorpion tattoo that Gargan famously has on his neck. Check out the photo, complete with Mando’s A+ caption:
