She was a love interest of both Peter and Flash Thompson.įlash Thompson: No matter the universe, Flash is always Peter Parker’s high school bully.īetty Brant: In the comics, she works for the Daily Bugle (ditto to the Sam Raimi films where she was played by Elizabeth Banks), but in “Homecoming,” she’s another one of Peter’s classmates. Liz Allan: Peter’s love interest in the film actually debuted the same time Spider-Man himself did in “Amazing Fantasy” #15. It doesn’t seem likely that the film’s version of the character will head down that path. Ned Leeds: In the film, Ned (played by Jacob Batalon) is Peter’s best friend and “the man in the chair.” In the comics, however, Leeds actually becomes the Hobgoblin.

Among them are a lot of familiar names from Spidey’s history. Years later, at their high school reunion, he clearly had not changed.Peter’s school life is a much bigger part of this film than it was in the previous ones, and as such, he spends more time with his classmates. He was the type of guy who would always goad Flash on in his fights with Peter. Seymour was a wisecracking suck-up who actually also appeared in Amazing Fantasy #15. Totah plays Seymour, who is likely Seymour O'Reilly, another one Flash's gang of kids. However, he got a name in Amazing Spider-Man #17, which is more than most could say! He hasn't been seen since high school graduation. Clearly, Lee and Ditko were not putting a lot of thought into the background students, so Charlie rarely showed up. Michael Barbieri plays Charles, who is presumably Charlie Murphy, one of Flash Thompson's gang of kids who always hung out with Flash. He recently popped up working as a security guard for Empire State University. So Peter volunteered to tutor Tiny, and the two became friends.

A football player, Tiny was a jerk to Peter just like Flash, but when he steals Peter's math notes, Peter steals them back and then spies Tiny and realizes that Tiny's father was an abusive jerk. He was a clever twist on the whole "secret identity" angle. The Vulture, of all people, talked him out of it (his advice was to blame someone else for his problems, like Spider-Man!).Įthan Dizon played Tiny, who was a classmate of Peter's in introduced in Untold Tales of Spider-Man. He was distraught over her death and ultimately tried to kill himself. She died and he only suffered minor head trauma. He had a crush on Sally Avril, and he was driving the car when they ran a red light while Sally was trying to take pictures of Spider-Man and the car crashed. He was a real jerk to Peter, going much further than Flash Thompson ever did.

plays Jason Ionello, who was a classmate of Peter's introduced in Untold Tales of Spider-Man. RELATED: How Spider-Man: Homecoming (Finally) Moves Past the Origin Story! That's certainly possible, but it's also possible that Abraham is just called that because he is played by Abraham Attah. Since all of the other people are established characters, people think that he must be an established character, as well, in which case the best bet is Abe Brown, brother of Hobie Brown (the superhero known as the Prowler) who was one of the Sons of the Dragon (the martial arts superheroes). Acclaimed young actor Abraham Attah plays Peter's classmate, Abraham.
