Jake Gyllenhaal meets cosplayer disguised as his Spider-Man: Far From Home character, Mysterio

Just over two years after the theatrical release of his superhero sequel Spider-Man: Far From Home, Jake Gyllenhaal met a familiar face in Venice… sort of.

The 40-year-old actor was on vacation in Venice, Italy when he noticed a cosplayer dressed as his Spider-Man: Far From Home character Quentin Beck, aka Mysterio.

Gyllenhaal took to his Instagram to share a photo of himself in a gondola on one of Venice’s famous canals, with the cosplayer in the background.

Gyllenhaal’s character Quentin Beck was originally believed to come from Earth-833, which was part of the “multiverse” in Spider-Man: Far From Home.

While Beck introduced himself as a hero named Mysterio, he was ultimately revealed as a disgruntled former employee of Tony Stark specializing in optical illusions.

Parts of Spider-Man: Far From Home were actually filmed in Venice, with the story revolving around Peter Parker (Tom Holland) going on a summer trip to Europe with his classmates.
