Far From Home Director Explains Vulture’s and Scorpion’s Absence

Despite previous reports to the contrary, it seems that we won’t see a pair of familiar faces in the upcoming Spider-Man: Far From Home, as both Vulture and Scorpion won’t cross the web slinger’s path in his adventure in Europe. Speaking with Digital SpyFar From Home director Jon Watts revealed that they couldn’t find “the right moment” for Vulture’s and Scorpion’s return in the latest installment in Spider-Man‘s franchise.

“We never really found the right moment to do something like that. It’s always just about it being right for the story and not just some sort of shoehorned-in cameo. But I do love the idea that they’re both still out there, and I like the idea that as we move forward with these films, we’re building out this rich world that we can continually draw from.”
