While appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night, Michael Keaton jumped off his seat and choked the late night host after Kimmel told him who his favorite comic book character is.

"I love Spider-Man," Kimmel told his guest. "He's my favorite comic [character], easily."

Acting shocked, Keaton cuts him off: "What?!"

"Yeah, Spider-Man," Kimmel quickly replies. "He's the funny one."

Leaping out of his chair, Keaton puts his hands on Kimmel's neck and pretends to choke him. After instantly apologizing for his remarks, Keaton releases his hold on Kimmel and retakes his seat.

Assuming Keaton did what he did because he plays the Vulture in Spider-Man: Homecoming, Kimmel says, "I forgot, you're his nemesis."

But before Kimmel can get his next thought out of his mouth, the star of Tim Burton's Batman (1989) and Batman Returns (1992) reveals the true reason he feigned anger by delivering his signature line: ""No, I'm Batman! What the f--k are you talking about?!"

A young Peter Parker/Spider-Man (Tom Holland), who made his sensational debut in Captain America: Civil War, begins to navigate his newfound identity as the web-slinging super hero in Spider-Man: Homecoming.
