The internet was buzzing earlier this week as the first trailer for "Spider-Man: Far From Home" was released by Marvel, featuring Spidey and film star Jake Gyllenhaal as Mysterio.
But the web is also excited about the film for reasons beyond the main players. Marvel has cast trans actor Zach Barack as one of Peter Parker's buddies who travels with him to Venice on a high school field trip.
The 22-year-old actor hails from Evanston, Illinois and is an actor, singer and comedian. This marks one of the first times a trans actor has been featured in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

In addition to Barack, The Advocate reports the film also cast trans actor Tyler Luke Cunningham as a featured extra.
"Spider-Man" follows popular CW show "Supergirl," which cast 21-year-old Nicole Maines to play hero Dreamer. In the show, Dreamer is transgender, like the actress, but she doesn't let this define her in any way, other than just always fighting for what's right.
Maines, a transgender activist and actress, knows how special this season was for actors like Barack.

Pervert comic book tales...
Eff Marvel and the pilotless story lines it develops.
I will NOT support perverts who attack our youth... ever. No more Marvel for me.
If gou want to see a good movie at home. Amazon has “ White Boy Rick” now for about 5 bucks. Matthew McCon.. very gritty without any trans people or gay story lines, or unbelieveable shoot outs or car chases.
“because the filmmakers insist on messing with the Lee-Kirby original.”
I agree. Plus it seems like the Thing is a character that is difficult to make look right. Oh yeah, and scratch the black Johnny Storm - that was just stupid.
They screwed up Galactus, they screwed up Dr. Doom...hopefully they can rediscover the essence of the team in Rev 3.
Could be interesting since female spiders eat their male partners. So what does a trans-spider eat, or who?
I guess we don’t need to go anymore. If an unreleased film is already a ‘blockbuster,’ actual attendance is redundant.
The Snowflakes and Millennials just can’t get enough of those carny freak shows these days. The more sexually perverted, the better.
Are we seeing their genitals? Are they discussing sexual preference?
Who give a hoot?
Gen X’rs are 50 now. I think they are the producers of the dreck. The Milenials are the buyers of this dreck.
Let me guess, Passion of the Christ?
You can have an opinion, but if you haven’t seen ANY movie in the past 15 years, you’ve missed some good stuff. I am not saying it’s ALL good, but going to the cinema is still a decent night out. I hope I never stop.
I did not say I haven’t seen a movie in 15 years. I said I haven’t seen a movie at the theater in 15 years.
Heh. So Nicole Maines changed her name to “Zach Barack”? It’s sounds like she not only thinks she’s a guy, she’s also an insane Obama girl who most likely renamed herself in “honor” of 0bama. Proof liberalism is a mental illness.
No, Nicole Maines is born a male named Wyatt Benjamin Maines, and “changed” to a female.
Zack Barack was born a female, and “changed” to a male.
Two different “transgender” actors.
They were waiting for their female champion, Captain Marvel, and their left turn, Phase IV.
It is Disney, so they will do to MCU what they did to Star Wars: SJWs on Parade.
I’m about 50/50 on if they will screw up Captain Marvel with SJW crap. I have assumed if they were to start it, it will begin with that movie. Appears they will continue with the convergence in Spider-Man 2. Once the current set of actors contracts are over, after Endgame! they will be free to try to force the current comics batch of crap into the theatre.
That's a thing now?
