As Spider-Man: Far From Home continues to flesh out its cast, now comes word that Remy Hii has joined the follow-up.

Via The Wrap, the Crazy Rich Asians actor has landed a to-be-revealed role in Jon Watts’ Homecoming sequel. Hii joins fellow new additions in Jake Gyllenhaal as the nefarious Mysterio, comedian J.B. Smoove in a TBC role, and Numan Acar as Dmitri – a character some are speculating could ultimately be the Chameleon or Kraven the Hunter.

In terms of returning names, Far From Home will see Tom Holland as Spidey, Marisa Tomei as Aunt May, Zendaya as MJ, Michael Keaton as Adrian Toomes/Vulture, and appearances from MCU mainstays Samuel L. Jackson and Cobie Smulders. Then there’s the expected return of several other of Peter’s schoolmates.

To be largely set in London, Spider-Man: Far From Home is set for a July 2019 release. Before that, of course, May 2019 will see the next Avengers movie – which, y’know, will somehow have to bring ol’ Web-head back into actual existence.
