Still here? Okay. 

SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING director Jon Watts spoke with USA Today and began to open up about the villains that actor Tom Holland's Peter Parker will have to face in this summer's movie.

Actor Michael Keaton is playing Adrian Toomes (a.k.a. the Vulture), who is a blue collar guy running a New York salvage company that comes in and cleans up messes and damage left by big superhero battles. Unfortunately for Toomes, Tony Stark swoops in and brings his own salvage company to clean up these messes leaving Toomes and his crew without work. Thus a new villain is born because of Stark. Toomes' crew consists of actors Bokeem Woodbine and Michael Chernus who become the villains the Shocker and the Tinkerer, respectively.

Watts confirms how the Vulture will pick-up pieces parts of tech leftover for his salvage company to clean-up and these items become the basis for the Tinkerer to build villain weaponry like the Vulture suit.

"It’s a really great starting point for the villains to have the Vulture picking over the stuff and finding the valuable exotic elements and having the Tinkerer assemble into something that could be used.”
