Marvel's Next Breakout Superhero: 'Food Vendor' (Starring Zach Cherry)

WELCOME BACK TO THE SHOW.
JON BATISTE AND STAY HUMAN, EVERYBODY.
HAPPY FRIDAY, JON.
THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) FOLKS, YOU GUYS CAUGHT ME.
YOU GUYS CAUGHT ME.
YOU GUYS CAUGHT ME READING MY BOOK.
IN A LITTLE WHILE WE'RE GOING TO HAVE WALTER ISAACSON COME OUT
HERE TO TALK ABOUT HIS NEW BOOK ST "LEONARDO da VINCI."
THERE'S ONLY ONE BOOK BETTER, MY BOOK, "STEPHEN COLBERT'S
MIDNIGHT CONFESSIONS" ON SALE NOW.
IF YOU DON'T HAVE ENOUGH GUILTY, YOU CAN GET SOME OF MY GUILT.
"I LIKE TO LIE DOWN WHILE WATCHING TV SO I CAN USE MY
BELLYBUTTON TO HOLD DIP."
( LAUGHTER ) "WHEN I WAS A CHILD, I HAD A LOT
OF IMAGINARY FRIENDS.
THEY WERE REAL PEOPLE.
I JUST IMAGINED THEY WERE MY FRIENDS."
>> Jon: OOOOH!
WOW, WOW >> Stephen: THE BOOK'S GOT
HEART.
IT'S GOT HEARTS, TOO.
FOLKS, I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS ARE DOING THIS WEEKEND, BUT
I'M VERY EXCITED FOR THE OPENING OF RAG.
AFTER THE SUCCESS OF "THE AVENGERS" AND "THE GUARDIANS OF
THE GALAXY," IT FEELS LIKE EVERY CHARACTER IN THE MARVEL UNIVERSE
IS GETTING THEIR OWN SPIN-OFF.
BUT THERE IS ONE MARVEL CHARACTER I PERSONALLY LOVE WHO
HASN'T GOTTEN THEIR OWN MOVIE YET.
THIS GUY, ZACH CHERRY.
HE WAS IN "SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING."
AND YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY: THERE ARE NO SMALL ROLES, BUT
THERE ARE VERY SHORT ONES.
HIS WAS ABOUT 11 SECONDS.
BUT IN MY OPINION, HE WAS THE SENT HIM TO NEW YORK COMI-CON TO
SEE IF HE COULD GET HIS OWN MARVEL SPIN-OFF MOVIE.
TAKE A LOOK.
♪ ♪ ♪ >> I MEAN, YEAH, I LOVE ACTING.
I LOVE BEING IN HUGE BLOCKBUSTERS BUT, REALLY, WHAT
I'M IN IT FOR IS FOR THE FANS.
I LOVE BEING WITH THE PEOPLE.
MY NAME IS ZACH CHERRY.
MY LIFE HAS BEEN A NONSTOP THRILL RIDE EVER SINCE I WAS A
STAR IN ONE SCENE OF "SPIDERMAN: HOMECOMING. "
>> HEY, YOU'RE THE SPIRED GUY ON YOUTUBE
>> CALL ME SPIDER-MAN >> ALL RIGHT, SPIDER-MAN
>> DO A FLIP!
>> I TOLD SPIDER-MAN TO DO A FLIP, AND SPIDER-MAN DID A FLIP.
SO IN A LOT OF WAYS, I WAS SPIDER-MAN'S BOSS IN THE MOVIE.
RIGHT NOW, I'M HERE AT NEW YORK COMIC-CON TO MAKE A BIG
ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT THE NEW SPIN-OFF MOVIE STARRING MY
CHARACTER.
IT'S VERY FRESH RIGHT NOW.
NOBODY'S HEARD OF IT, INCLUDING MARVEL.
>> MEET STREET VENDOR!
BORN ON EARTH TO HUMAN PARENTS, HE'S A VENDOR OF SIDEWALK MEATS
BY DAY.
AND BY NIGHT?
ALSO A VENDOR OF SIDEWALK MEATS.
UNTIL 11-ish.
>> DID YOU SEE THE NEW SPIDER-MAN?
>> YEAH.
>> DO YOU REMEMBER-- UH, RECOGNIZE ME FROM IT?
>> AHH, A LITTLE.
>> HEY!
DO A FLIP!
DO A FLIP!
DO A FLIP!
NICE TO SEE YOU, NICE TO SEE YOU!
HEY, HEY!
HE'S LIKE PETER PARKER, IF HE NEVER GOT BIT BY A SPIDER.
OR HE'S LIKE BRUCE WAYNE IF HE WASN'T RICH AND HIS PARENTS WERE
STILL ALIVE, YOU KNOW?
I'M JUST TRYING TO GET SOME SIGNATURES TO REALLY SHOW MARVEL
WE HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE EXCITED ABOUT THE MOVIE.
I WANT TO GET 10 MILLION SIGNATURES TO PROVE TO MARVEL,
I'M TRYING TO GET 10 MILLION.
I HAVE NINE SO FAR.
JUST MAKE A NOTE IF YOU'RE GOING TO SEE IT IN IMAX OR 3 "D."
THAT'S A LITTLE MORE MONEY SO I DON'T HAVE TO GET AS MANY
SIGNATURES.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
THE >> DO YOU WANT ME TO SIGN A BOOK
FOR YOU HERE, OR SOMETHING?
>> ACTUALLY, CAN YOU SIGN THE PETITION INSTEAD?
>> YOU WANT ME TO SIGN THIS?
>> IF YOU CAN SIGN THIS-- >> WHAT'S THE LIKE-MINDED
PRODUCT?
"TRANSFORMERS" MEETS "THE X-FILES."
YOU'RE.
>> I'M TRYING TO GET MY HEAD AROUND IT.
>> THIS IS LIKE HOT DOGS MEETS SUPERHEROES.
>> ...WHAT?
>> I THINK WE GOT A REALLY GOOD IDEA FOR THE MOVIE.
IT'S GOING TO BE, LIKE, ME AND A BUNCH OF, LIKE, MY AVENGERS.
LIKE, THERE'S A KETCHUP BOTTLE TALKING, MY FRIEND DAERN.
DARREN, MY SAUCY WISE-CRACKING SIDEKICK, FORMER SPECIAL FORCES
OPERATIVE.
BUT DUE TO A MILITARY EXPERIMENT GONE AWRY, HE'S CURRENTLY A
KETCHUP BOTTLE AND STREET VENDOR'S ONLY FRIEND.
THERE'S A CHARACTER WHO'S LIKE A KETCHUP BOTTLE.
YEAH.
>> KETCHUP?
>> YEAH!
DARREN.
THAT'S DARREN.
HE'D BE CRACKING LINES ABOUT SOMETHING.
♪ ♪ ♪ TURNS OUT PRETTY MUCH ANYONE WHO
FINDS A SHARPIE CAN HAVE THEIR OWN PANEL, SO I'M ABOUT TO HAVE
A PANEL OF MY OWN.
♪ ♪ ♪ SO I JUST WANT TO THANK EVERYONE
FOR COMING.
THIS IS, YOU KNOW, THE MOST EXCLUSIVE PANEL AT
NEW YORK COMIC-CON.
OBVIOUSLY, YOU KNOW ME.
I BROUGHT A COPY OF THE SCRIPT I'VE BEEN WORKING ON HERE.
AND I WAS HOPING SOMEONE WOULD COME UP AND READ A SCENE WITH
ME.
COLOSSUS, YOU WANT TO HELP ME OUT?
WE'LL HAVE YOU DO AT-RISK YOUTH.
OKAY, EXTERIOR FOOD CART, NIGHT.
STREET VENDOR-- WHICH IS ME-- IS CLOSING HIS CART FOR THE DAY
WHEN A YOUNG PERSON IN TATTERED CLOTHES APPROACHES.
>> HELLO, I AM AN AT-RISK YOUTH.
IF I DON'T GET A DECENT SANDWICH, I AM GOING TO DIE--
OR WORSE, JOIN A GANG.
>> I HAVE JUST THE THING.
STREET VENDOR QUICKLY COOKS A TURKEY BURGER JUST RIGHT, SO YOU
CAN HARDLY TELL IT'S NOT A REGULAR BURGER.
HE HANDS IT TO THE AT-RISK YOUTH, WHO TAKES A BITE AND
SMILES.
>> THIS IS AMAZING.
>> IT DOESN'T EVEN TASTE LIKE TURKEY.
>> NO, IT DOESN'T.
>> THE FULL CAST OF "THE AVENGERS" ENTERS FOR AN
UN-CREDITED CAMEO.
IT WAS A HUGE HIT WITH THE FANS.
BUT IF I WAS GOING TO SELL THIS MOVIE TO MARVEL, I'D NEED MORE
THAN JUST RAW ENTHUSIASM.
>> DO A FLIP!
>> I'D NEED STAR POWER!
SO MY PITCH FOR YOU IS I'M THINKING ABOUT HAVING A NEMESIS
CHARACTER WHO IS A HEALTH INSPECTOR.
BECAUSE, OF COURSE, A NATURAL ENEMY OF THE VENDOR.
>> AND I COME, AND I WANT TO GIVE YOU, LIKE, A "C."
>> HEALTH INSPECTOR: HE FINES STREET CARTS FOR UNSANITARY
CONDITIONS.
PLUS, HE CAN SEE DEAD PEOPLE!
HEY, GILBERT GOTTFRIED!
HI, OH, HEY, MY NAME IS ZACH CHERRY.
SO I WAS IN THE NEW "SPIDER-MAN."
DID YOU SEE THE NEW "SPIDER-MAN" MOVIE?
>> NO, NO, I HAVEN'T.
>> DOESN'T MATTER.
BUT I'M WORKING ON A SEQUEL JUST ABOUT MY CHARACTER.
I PLAYED THE STREET VENDOR.
IT'S JUST ME.
I GO TO WORK.
I KIND OF, LIKE, CLEAN THE CART.
YOU SEE THE WHOLE PROCESS, BUT THERE'S STILL A MORAL DILEMMAS.
IF GREEN GOBLIN WERE HERE, WOULD I SERVE HIM?
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
>> IT'S A STUPID IDEA.
>> BUT IT'S LIKE, HOW, >> YEAH, OKAY.
I'LL CALL STEVEN SPIELBERG WITH IT, ALRIGHT.
>> DO YOU HAVE HIS NUMBER?
>> OH, YEAH.
I'M GOING TO CALL HIM NOW!
>> I WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO PLAY MY FRIEND, THE KETCHUP BOTTLE,
HE'S A FRIEND OF MINE.
HIS NAME IS DARREN.
HE WOULD BE PERFECT FOR DARREN.
IT WAS TIME TO FIND OUT WHAT THE EXECUTIVE EDITORS OF MARVEL
THOUGHT AT THEIR OFFICIAL PANEL.
HI, MY NAME IS ZACH.
I WAS WONDERING IF ANY OF YOU HAD PLANS TO INCLUDE THE STREET
VENDOR FROM "SPIDERMAN: HOMECOMING" IN THE COMIC BOOK
UNIVERSE?
>> WHO'S THE STREET VENDOR FROM "SPIDERMAN: HOMECOMING?"
>> IT WAS ME.
I PLAY THE STREET VENDOR IN "SPIDERMAN: HOMECOMING."
( LAUGHTER ) ( APPLAUSE )
AND I'M TRYING TO BRANCH OUT.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
I'M TRYING -- I'M TRYING TO BRANCH OUT.
>> YOU WOULD BE A GREAT NEW LOVE INTEREST FOR MARY JANE.
>> I AGREE.
I AGREE.
I THINK THAT WOULD BE AWESOME.
DO A FLIP!
WITH A THUMBS-UP FROM MARVEL, THE TWO BIGGEST HOLLYWOOD STARS
ATTACHED, AND WITH OVER 53 SIGNATURES, IT WAS CLEAR THE
WORLD WAS READY TO DO A FLIP.
