Donald Glover is finding his way into the Spider-Verse once again — but not in a way that anyone was probably expecting. On Friday, The Hollywood Reporter revealed that Glover will be starring in and producing a feature film centered around Hypno-Hustler, a relatively-obscure Spider-Man villain from the 1970s. The script for the film will be written by Myles Murphy, the son of legendary comedian Eddie Murphy.
Who is Marvel's Hypno-Hustler?Created by Bill Mantlo and Frank Springer, Antoine Delsoin / Hypno-Hustler first debuted in 1978's Peter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-Man #24. The leader of a band dubbed the Mercy Killers, Hypno-Hustler uses his instruments to hypnotize his audience, and then rob them. The character has only had fifteen appearances in the decades that have followed, but is seen as a somewhat-infamous and bizarre part of Spider-Man's rogues gallery.
What are Sony's Spider-Man movies?This Hypno-Hustler movie will join an ever-growing and increasingly-eclectic crop of Sony's live-action Spider-Man movies, including several Venom films, this year's Morbius, and the upcoming Kraven the Hunter, Madame Web, and El Muerto movies. There are also plans for a Silk: Spider Society series to air on Prime Video, which is expected to launch several Spider-Man-related television shows.
So Hypno-Hustler makes Prowler into a thief right? Right?
