“The Nice Guys” was one of the best movies of the summer that you didn’t see. Despite strong reviews, the pairing of Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe, director Shane Black behind the camera, loaded with an R-rating to realize his vision, no one went to see the buddy action movie, which tapped out at a tepid $35 million domestic. And in addition to missing out on a great movie, audiences also didn’t get to witness one of the most promising breakout performances of the year, but luckily, the folks at Marvel were paying attention.

Angourie Rice, who played Gosling’s clever daughter in the movie, has signed up for “Spider-Man: Homecoming.” She joins the ridiculously good cast that includes Tom Holland, Marisa Tomei, Tony Revolori, Laura Harrier, Marisa Tomei, Kenneth Choi, Zendaya, Donald Glover, Logan Marshall-Green, Martin Starr, Abraham Attah, Hannibal Buress, and Bokeem Woodbine in the Jon Watts directed movie, that is now in production.
As per usual, Rice’s role is being kept under wraps, and I wouldn’t wager on it being too big. “Spider-Man: Homecoming” opens on July 7, 2017. [THR]
