With the Marvel Cinematic Universe as vast and inter-dimensional as it is, it would be near-impossible to know about every single Easter egg and crossover that's ever appeared.

Which is why it comes as a surprise to learn that a crossover between Spider-Man: Homecoming and The Incredible Hulk officially exists, according to Kevin Feige.

In a recent Reddit AMA session with the Marvel Studios boss, Feige confirmed that actor Martin Starr is the missing link that joins Homecoming and The Incredible Hulk.

Not only does Starr play the weary and suitably unlucky science teacher Mr Harrington in the Spider-Man universe, but he also plays Roger Harrington, who made a brief appearance in the 2008 Hulk movie starring Edward Norton as Bruce Banner.

Before his days as an academic decathlon team chaperone, Roger Harrington attended Culver University, spending most of his time in the computer lab, which Bruce Banner infiltrates as an undercover pizza delivery guy.

Every day's a school day, isn't it?

Fortunately, there's not long to wait until the fate of Mr Harrington is (hopefully) revealed in Spider-Man: Far From Home, which will hit cinemas in a matter of months.

Not that Spidey himself, Tom Holland, would know – he didn't even remember to post the film's first trailer.
