Deadline have the latest scoop on casting for Sony and Marvel's Spider-Man reboot - and it's a surprise!
Yes, nineteen-year-old #Zendaya - actress, singer, dancer, and model - will be joining the cast. Surprisingly enough, she's playing a character who goes by the name of Michelle. Zendaya's popularity is growing, and some fans are hoping this could be a breakout role for her.
But here's the catch: who's Michelle? The #SpiderMan reboot is based in Peter Parker's high-school years, and there's literally no Michelle among his classmates. The only Michelle fans can think of is a girlfriend / flat-mate from years later, who seems rather unlikely. Whoever she may be, it seems decidedly odd that she's been cast before the likes of, say, Aunt May, Gwen Stacy, or Mary-Jane!
Fan speculation is currently running wild; some fans are making a guess that the character is none other than the White Tiger, another superhero, but I'm not entirely sure about their logic. Not least because no incarnation of the White Tiger has been called Michelle either...
Whoever Zendaya plays, the future is beginning to take shape for Spider-Man. Let's see who's cast next!

Five Underrated Mandalorians and Concept Designs for Cosplay
Within the vast realm of Star Wars, the Mandalorians hold a prominent position in the ranks of popular cosplay subjects. For over a decade, as a dedicated cosplayer, I have experienced great excitement upon encountering novel characters and character designs at conventions attended with my sister and friends. These endeavors exemplify the beauty of the art form, not only in bringing characters to life through the eyes of talented artists, but also in sparking immense joy among children and families who cherish the opportunity to see their beloved characters materialize. Moreover, witnessing the creative interpretations and personal touches that cosplayers infuse into their designs is a captivating spectacle on social media. Among the most frequently portrayed characters, I have observed Bo-Katan Kryze, Sabine Wren, Padme Amidala, Ahsoka Tano, Hera Syndulla, and Duchess Satine Kryze. These portrayals serve as a testament to the dedication and artistry of the individuals who bring these characters to life.
