'Waste of time': Fans unhappy with Donald Glover joining 'Spider-Man' universe as Hypno Hustler

The actor was seen playing the role of Aaron Davis in ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ and also voiced the character Miles Morales in the animated series ‘Ultimate Spider-Man’.

Apart from Glover, Myles Murphy, son of Eddie Murphy, is attached to write the movie, which has no title as of yet.

As far as Hypno-Hustler is concerned, Hypno-Hustler was a part of a band that was supposed to perform at the nightclub called ‘Beyond Forever’. Using his specialized goggles and the hypnotic singing of the Mercy Killers, Hustler placed the audience in a trance. A fight took place between Spider-Man and Hustler, which ended with Hustler being taken away by police. The supervillain uses Hypnotic Guitar which produced sound waves at a level where he could hypnotize people. To be safe, he made specialized headphones that protected him from his own hypnotic music. On the other hand, he has special boots made for him that can emit knockout gas on demand, and have retractable knives in the soles.

Although he is considered to be a supervillain, Hypno Hustler is not one of the fan favorites and is often included in lists of worst comic-book villains.

As soon as the news surfaced online, fans flooded social media with extraordinary comments across several platforms. Meanwhile, people were happy about Glover’s involvement, and a lot of people requested the production house to not waste such opportunities to make movies on side characters. One of the fans wrote, “SONY JUST BECAUSE THE VENOM MOVIES WORKED DOES NOT MEAN YOU GET TO MAKE MOVIES FOR ANY SPIDERMAN VILLAIN THAT NOBODY CARES ABOUT PLEASE STOP I BEG OF YOU.” Another fan noted, “Sony carefully finding the most obscure Spider-Man villains to make mid-anti-villain spinoffs of.”

“Sony please… no more Spider-Man spin-offs. Just give the rights back to marvel studios. I can’t take this anymore,” another fan noted. “Seems like a waste of his time. I hate the idea of him making something where’d he be constricted bc of SpiderMan rules or corporation notes or some s**t,” tweeted another fan.

Hypno-Hustler is the latest character to join the world of comic-book characters handled by Sony Pictures. This is the latest Spider-Man character to get a feature film from Sony, which already has ‘Venom’ and ‘Morbius’. Meanwhile, movies like ‘Kraven The Hunter’ and ‘Madame Webb’ will be released in 2023 and 2024 respectively.
