According toTHR,Jake Gyllenhaalis in talks to play the villainous Mysterio in the upcoming sequel.
However, he came to see his career in special effects as a dead-end job.
The character is one of Spider-Mans oldest antagonists, first appearing inThe Amazing Spider-Man#13 in June 1964.
I dont think there will be any complaints over a talented actor like Gyllenhaal landing the role.
The bigger question is whether or not theyll keep the characters fishbowl-head costume for his big screen debut.
