Fan Casting Adrian Toomes in The Amazing Spider-Man

Adrian Toomes is a brilliant but embittered aerospace engineer whose life was destroyed after Oscorp fired him and claimed credit for the revolutionary flight technology he spent years developing. Once a proud inventor with dreams of changing the world, Adrian has become consumed by resentment and a desire for justice. Compounding his anger is a terminal diagnosis of bone cancer, leaving him with only months to live. With nothing left to lose, Toomes uses his stolen designs to create a powerful winged exosuit and wages a personal war against the corporation that robbed him of his legacy. Though his methods become increasingly violent, Adrian sees himself not as a villain, but as a man determined to expose the truth before he dies.
