Disney Star Cameron Boyce to Guest on ‘Marvel’s Spider-Man’

“Marvel’s Spider-Man” makes its debut this Saturday on Disney XD, and we’ve got new casting news for the latest animated incarnation of everyone’s favorite wall-crawler! Disney star Cameron Boyce (“Descendants,” “Jessie”) will make a vocal guest appearance on the series, in the episode airing Saturday, August 26 at 7:00am ET/PT.
