Spider-Man himself, Tom Holland, posted a group shot of the cast, including Barack. The gang is certainly all here!

In addition to Barack, The Advocate reports the film also cast trans actor Tyler Luke Cunningham as a featured extra.
\"Spider-Man\" follows popular CW show \"Supergirl,\" which cast 21-year-old Nicole Maines to play hero Dreamer. In the show, Dreamer is transgender, like the actress, but she doesn't let this define her in any way, other than just always fighting for what's right.
Maines, a transgender activist and actress, knows how special this season was for actors like Barack.
\"If I had had a trans superhero, someone who looks like me wearing a cape, [while] growing up, that would have changed the game,\" the actress recently told USA TODAY. \"That would have been an entire new level of validation in myself to think that I can be a superhero!\"
\"Marvel-ous\" and \"Super\" indeed!
