Kevin Feige Confirms Connection Between THE INCREDIBLE HULK and SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING

In the recent Reddit Ask Me Anything session with Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige, one question that was asked concerned Martin Starr (Freaks and Geeks, Spider-Man: Homecoming).

We know that Starr played the Science teacher and head of the Academic Decathlon Team, Mr. Harrington, in Spider-Man: Homecoming, but many may not remember that he also played the role of “Computer Nerd,” who Edward Norton’s Bruce Banner bribes with pizza to in order to access the Culver University computer lab in the movie The Incredible Hulk. So during the AMA, Feige was asked if we can assume that Starr’s characters are actually the same person. He responded simply with, “I do.”

That’s so cool! It’s so funny that even characters as small as Mr. Harrington have story arcs throughout the MCU. Martin Starr will be back this summer to reprise his role in the upcoming Spider-man: Far From Home, which opens on July 2.

Had you ever noticed Starr’s recurrent character? Is there anyone else you’ve noticed who has appeared more than once as a background character?
