Marvel Studios’ 2nd Choice for MCU Vulture Actor Revealed*

While Michael Keaton did an incredible job portraying the MCU"s Vulture in Spider-Man: Homecoming, a veteran actor revealed that Marvel Studios almost hired him to play the Marvel villain in the Tom Holland-led solo movie. 
Spider-Man: Homecoming introduced Michael Keaton as Adrian Toomes, a formidable adversary to Tom Holland"s Spider-Man. Although the web-slinger ultimately defeated Keaton"s MCU villain, the character still made a triumphant return in Morbius, potentially setting up a future sinister team-up. 
While fans are waiting for Vulture"s eventual comeback and possible larger role moving forward, it looks like Keaton almost didn"t make his Marvel debut in the 2017 MCU movie. 
John Leguizamo Almost Played the MCU"s Vulture John LeguizamoSpeaking with Comicbook.com, Violent Night actor John Leguizamo revealed that he almost starred alongside Tom Holland in Spider-Man: Homecoming as Adrian Toomes, aka Vulture. 
The actor said that Marvel Studios told him to give up the role since Michael Keaton "wanted it back:"

"I was supposed to be the Vulture. We had negotiated and I was about to play him, and they said that Michael Keaton wanted it back and they asked me if I would give it up. I said, ‘Well, okay I guess.’ They said, ‘No, we’ll work with you again, we’re gonna...’ That’s what happened there.”

Still, Marvel did offer him a follow-up role, but Leguizamo didn"t say yes to it since it was "something tiny:"

“They offered me something tiny, I went, ‘Nuh uh.’”
