Cast the Spider-Man Reboot

[austen]

My Amazing Spider-Man cast!
Spider-Man and Supporting cast.
Peter Parker/Spider-Man-Logan Lerman
Mary Jane Watson-Emma Stone
Gwen Stacy-Emma Watson
Harry Osborn-Anton Yelchin
Aunt May-Helen Mirren
Uncle Ben-Craig T. Nelson
Liz Allen-Taylor Momsen
Villains
Norman Osborn/The Green Goblin-Christopher Waltz or Jackie Earle Haley(My choice)
Eddie Brock/Venom-Alexander Skarsgard
Doctor Otto Octavius/Doc Ock-Kevin Mckidd(Ultimate)
Sandman-Henry Rollins
Electro-Ben Foster

you may get your spidey choice with all the latest news on the internet from yesterday saying lerman is "almost 100% lock" for the role but has yet to enter into detailed contract negotiations. sounds more believable than the last round of buzz.

would still like to see JK Simmons back as JJJ but if not, hope they get Hugh Laurie. :cwink:

[batboy99]

I really hope they get Lerman for Peter. But I'm really interested in seeing who they get for MJ. She's gotta be really good looking, kinda the reason why I don't want MEW. Don't get me wrong, she's adorable, but I find her more on the cute side, kind of how I picture Liz Allen or someone. I really think Emma stone would be the best choice, especially if she. Looks the way she did in zombieland. The red hair and blue eyes combo just makes her that much better IMO.

[TheComicbookKid]

Yeah, well, Hitflix was also sure Haley was set for Green Lantern and we know how that turned out.

[I'm Venom]

Eddie Brock/Venom-Alexander Skarsgard

Skarsgard looks like Tobey Maguire on drugs.

Ackles and Brock just look alike.

[batboy99]

If Skarsgard looks remotely like Tobey, then Anna paquin looks like Kirsten dunst.... And we all know that's not true.

[Nathan]

Ok, I was thinking what nonsense and then actually googled Alexander Skarsgard. And holy ****. It's true, ok, not that exaggerated, he doesn't look exactly like Tobey. But I think it's the eyes.

[I'm Venom]

If Skarsgard looks remotely like Tobey, then Anna paquin looks like Kirsten dunst.... And we all know that's not true.

Ackles gets brought up again....by I'm Venom
everytime I come in here you have a picture or are saying again "He just looks like him"
I dont agree but it makes me lol :oldrazz:
skarsgard looks bad too though.

Ackles and Brock just look alike.
I've always found it stupid when people say actors look just like comic book characters (except when they are drawn to look like actors) but this one is just terrible. There's no way you can look at that drawing and think it looks anything like Jensen Ackles.

[austen]

Sony has reportedly denied the Lerman casting again. What is it with Sony Corporate and Logan Lerman? HitFix stands by its story and source and so does that other website which broke a similar story in late Feb.

I was on board with a Lerman casting already or Yelchin but both may not be in the SM Reboot. Anton for sure won't be associated with the film as he's agreed to do a Fright Night remake along with other films. Lerman's the curious one as he hasn't signed on to any other projects yet.

maybe time to look at other prospects:huh:

[Nathan]

As someone else said in another thread, it's the same with the rumors around SM4. When several sources said the production was in trouble and Sony flat out denied any of it. Then apparently SM4 was a lock, Malkovich got cast as the Vulture and a few days later BAM, reboot news.

Now several sources say Lerman is as good as cast and Sony again denies everything. A lot of decision can change quickly, but I'm confident Lerman will be Spider-Man. Sony just wants to make a big official announcement themselves.

[I'm Venom]

May I ask what you're smoking? Who's your choice for Brock? There are similarities. Ackles could gain 25 lbs of muscle and would fit the role perfectly lookswise.

Though I like the choice,he's right. That pic looks absolutely nothing like Jensen.

You like my choice, but agree with him? :huh:

[batboy99]

Well, duh. The picture looks nothing like Ackles. The picture looks like an older dude, and thats not at all what Ackles looks like. If anyone thinks that picture looks ANYTHING like Jensen Ackles, then they're posting with their eyes closed.

[I'm Venom]

Ackles just needs a flattop. He's got the build like in the comics. He could totally pull it off and would be dead on.

[LegendaryCaleb]

i dont think ackles looks like mcfarlanes brock in any way...sam worthington looks more like it...and that one manip i saw recently looks even more like it...but ackles...nah.
but could he play the part? i dont know...havent seen him in anything big

[I'm Venom]

I can't see Sam in the suit. Brock needs to be someone able to hold his own acting wise when dealing with Parker. I'd also prefer if the actor was American. I just don't know if the audience could take him seriously.

I've been advocating fpr Laurie as Jameson since the first season of house. This would be perfect casting.

[batboy99]

Ackles fits the role perfectly, but he doesn't look like Macfarlines Brock . Nor does worthington for that matter.

[batboy99]

Ackles fits the role perfectly, but he doesn't look like Macfarlines Brock . Nor does worthington for that matter. But how would the audience not take Sam seriously?? That makes no sense..

[LegendaryCaleb]

i was saying sam looked MORE like it....not that he was dead on
as in if i had to choose an actor with a younger look to play venom off the top of my head sam is a better choice...of course there are greater choices than ackles and sam anyway
i dont understand how people couldnt take sam serious because he isnt american but has an american accent for the role? im really confused by that remark
i could see sam in suit though...i even manipped a couple to see what itd be like (im not in love with sam like you for ackles but i just got bored when i heard there was a venom movie)

http://s475.photobucket.com/albums/rr120/calebyour/?action=view&current=venomteas.png

[batboy99]

Ah ok, gotcha.

And yeah, I dont understand it either. It's not like he's this guy thats been around for a while who just does comedies or something. A movie like this is right up his alley.

It just kinda seemed like a remark someone says just to say it.

[cin0]

its hard for me to even picture him smilin sometimes his characters stay frownin.

[I'm Venom]

Ackles could pull it off. I definitely don't question his ability. Anyone who's seen him in My Bloody Valentine knows that he has charisma, talent, and the build. I'd love to see him as Brock.

Sam can't be Brock. Think about it. He's okay, but I definitely don't see him as Brock fighting against Parker. He's not American, so I can't pull for him. It wouldn't be right with an accent.

[LegendaryCaleb]

I'm Venom...now you just sound like you have a huge crush on ackles and not only that, you seem beyond stubborn for anyone else to play brock when we all know there are better choices than sam and ackles out there.
how come sam cant be brock? i dont understand what you are tryin to say...you dont see him fighting? watch clash of the titans or terminator...how can you not see him fighting parker? cause "ackles would be better!" is not a real reason...nothing you say seems to be a conclusive reason...sorry.
he has an american accent...hes an actor...its not like he cant control the way he talks...thats a dumb reason.
im not picking on you...you just sound really tight lidded on ackles to the point where if anyone else gets cast they arent good enough and you downgrade sam even though him and ackles are just as talented...heck sam might even be more cause look at the rolls theyve had movie wise.
Christian Bale isnt american...look at his accent
Heath Ledger wasnt american...look at how he did.
Oldman...
Your logic is blown...and you arent respecting others opinions on what they think for acting decisions and its making you just sound like an arrogant bug.

[Majik1387]

Worthington doesn't really look like an actor I would want for Eddie Brock. Maybe another Spidey villain, but I just don't see it.

[I'm Venom]

First of all, it's immature of you and unrequired to keep replying to every single Ackles related post that I make and refer to this supposed crush I have on him. It seemed like you were joking at first, but now you're acting like a troll about it. I get what you're trying to imply, but it's not necessary. I've seen plenty of your posts praising Sam and suggesting that he should play the part, even going as far as making manips of him in the symbiote. I could say stupid things like "you have a crush on Sam" or "you spend your own personal time making manips of your crush," but it's just silly, not to mention that your manips are some of the best here.

Second, if you're going to make a statement such as "we all know there are better choices," you should at least bother listing names of actors that you feel could play the part, because it's hard to imagine who'd be better than who when we're only discussing two casting choices. I'm simply comparing Ackles and Sam and telling you why I think Ackles is the better choice. Perhaps if you threw another name into the hat, who knows? Maybe I might find somebody I think would be better than Ackles, so before you call me stubborn, let's see who else you have to offer for the role.

Also, when I said I couldn't see Sam fighting against Parker, I obviously didn't mean literally. My point was that I just can't see Sam as Brock at the Daily Bugle, which is all Brock will be doing if he's even in this film, because I highly doubt we'll see Venom anytime soon. I'm not even saying that he couldn't do it, but Ackles just has the look and voice for Brock, and it helps that he's American, because he doesn't have to fake an accent. I understand that guys like Bale, Ledger, and Oldman have all faked accents and wasn't saying that Sam couldn't because I've seen him act before and know that he can, but Ackles' voice would be a better fit.

I'm not even going to get into an argument about who's more talented between the two, simply because my opinion versus your opinion won't settle anything, but I'll point out the number of films Ackles has been in compared to Sam and how unfair it would be to assume Sam is more talented because he's been in more films. That doesn't mean anything.

If you'd like to continue this discussion, please be mature and give more substance. I'd be interested in who else you could see play Brock. I'll even admit I wouldn't be too upset if Sam were to get the role. I just prefer Ackles over Sam, simple as that. Nothing personal toward you, it's just my own personal taste.

[SymbioticToxin]

Ackles could pull it off. I definitely don't question his ability. Anyone who's seen him in My Bloody Valentine knows that he has charisma, talent, and the build. I'd love to see him as Brock.

Sam can't be Brock. Think about it. He's okay, but I definitely don't see him as Brock fighting against Parker. He's not American, so I can't pull for him. It wouldn't be right with an accent.
I'm not diagreein' wiht you on Ackles. He's a good actor, I'll give him that. All he needs to do is take his character from Supernatural and fix that up a bit for a more vengeful protector persona. But aside from that he doesn't really have the look for Venom, jsut for Eddie. Worthington, on the other hand, has the build for Venom, just not for Eddie. So one could only play the other, in my opinion.

[Captain America]

personally I'm in favor of a more nerdy/skinny approach to the web-head, someone like Anton Yelchin, Jesse Eisenberg or Erik Knudsen sound alright to me

[batboy99]

I don't care for Sam as Brock anyways but saying you can't take him seriously because he isn't american?? WOW. They're actors for a reason

[LegendaryCaleb]

I have not praised Sam Worthington...I'd love for you to show me that post where I have praised Sam like you praise Ackles....Please. Do it. I'd love to see it. I had mentioned "Sam wouldnt be a bad choice" or something along those lines. But I havent consistently posted "Ackles is the best for Brock...I mean look at the resemblences!"
and you call me immature? you always respond when someone disagrees with something along the lines of "What have you been smoking?" or "You're wrong"
You dont respect opinions. I have respected yours just pop'd a joke here and there for your Ackles love. I've only made two Sam manips back in like...December. Sam Worthington would not be the greatest...He was just a hot on the rise actor that seemed like he could do it. He is by far not a number one choice. There are better out there...not that I can name names but come on...So many actors out there lol.
As for the accent thing as batboy said...Hes an actor...He doesnt have to be american to have an american accent for his role. That still makes no sense to me.
I do appreciate you making sense finally to what you meant about seeing Sam fight Parker...The whole Bugle thing. But what if they dont go the route of Parker and Brock fighting for a job at the Bugle like sm3?
I respect your personal taste, man. Just be more mature when someone disagrees with you and we all wont get annoyed by some of your responses.

[I'm Venom]

I don't care for Sam as Brock anyways but saying you can't take him seriously because he isn't american?? WOW. They're actors for a reason

WOW. You ignored my post above. I clearly explained that Ackles's voice would be a better fit, despite Sam using an American accent. I've heard his fake accent in films before, and it sounds just as American as Ackles's, but my point is that Ackles' voice still sounds better than Sam's voice when using an American accent.

I'm not diagreein' wiht you on Ackles. He's a good actor, I'll give him that. All he needs to do is take his character from Supernatural and fix that up a bit for a more vengeful protector persona. But aside from that he doesn't really have the look for Venom, jsut for Eddie. Worthington, on the other hand, has the build for Venom, just not for Eddie. So one could only play the other, in my opinion.

He doesn't have the look for Venom, just Eddie? That doesn't make sense. As long as the guy looks like Brock, CGI can do the rest when he becomes Venom.

You act as if Sam is massive compared to Ackles. Granted, he may be bigger, but even you said that he doesn't have the build for Brock. Ackles playing Brock and Sam playing Venom would be needless. If we're going by that logic, almost any actor with an average build could do Brock, and Brock Lesnar should just play Venom. You people should think these things through.

[VenomVsSpidey]

Brock Lesnar should just play Venom.

I hate it when people post crap like this....

[I'm Venom]

I have not praised Sam Worthington...I'd love for you to show me that post where I have praised Sam like you praise Ackles....Please. Do it. I'd love to see it.

With pleasure

worthington looks more like him to be honest

the guy seems perfect for brock!

he looks so much like mcfarlanes brock...he certainly seems fit for the role!

but i think hed be awesome

getting sam worthington would be awesome but hes on to wayy bigger and better things

There you are, sir.

I had mentioned "Sam wouldnt be a bad choice" or something along those lines. But I havent consistently posted "Ackles is the best for Brock...I mean look at the resemblences!"

You mentioned Sam looks like him, seems perfect for Brock, and would be awesome. That's not the same as "Sam wouldn't be a bad choice." That's praising him. I respect your opinion and even agree Sam wouldn't be a bad choice, but the Ackles/crush jokes are immature. Again, you say there are better out there, but can't even be bothered to list ONE. Please.

As for the accent thing as batboy said...Hes an actor...He doesnt have to be american to have an american accent for his role. That still makes no sense to me.

You ignored my post above. I know he doesn't have to be American for this role, but even his American sounding voice wouldn't sound too Venom. It just doesn't.

I do appreciate you making sense finally to what you meant about seeing Sam fight Parker...The whole Bugle thing. But what if they dont go the route of Parker and Brock fighting for a job at the Bugle like sm3?

I wasn't referring to what they did in SM3. I meant if Brock was already working there as a journalist and Parker comes along and starts working there as a photographer, with Brock being jealous of his younger co-worker's success. If they don't go that route, they'll probably be in high school together, and if so, we can definitely forget about either Ackles or Sam as Brock.

I respect your personal taste, man. Just be more mature when someone disagrees with you and we all wont get annoyed by some of your responses.

Why are you copying me? You must not like it when somebody tells you to be mature, so in response, you get offended and repeat what they said, and if you actually get annoyed by my posts, seriously, don't follow me.

[I'm Venom]

Read. I didn't literally mean that he could be Brock.

wow good find...i should have never said the perfect thing.
but i was right that sam is on to bigger and better things i suppose.
sorry if the ackles crush thing offended you man...it was jokes...i cant list none because i dont have anyone in mind at the time. kinda like lerman came out of the blue...theres better choices probably. i didnt ignore it...it just still doesnt make any sense...hopefully if they do venom right...it wont sound like the actors voice in general...cause thats one of the biggest problems with sm3's venom. i agree about if they go that route then yeah forget sam and ackles. i am not copying you...you said to someone "what are you smoking?" when someone said ackles looks nothing like mcfarlanes brock. which could be just as offensive as "you have a crush on ackles"
im not offended at all haha i like debate and thats what this is...not a fight...a debate...unless your taking things a lil more seriously ;) ...it is the internet LOL...you obviously admitted you were cause i mentioned you post about ackles daily...and i dont follow you...you just consistently post about him in the venom thread and this casting thread where i am daily...so it tends to be more like "ok...ive heard that before" and ackles does have a brock-esque sense to him..its not like a disagree with your casting decision...in the long run we are just fanboys saying our opinions...now before we get in trouble
I respect your casting decision, bro.

If Logan Lerman is not gonna be Spider-Man then I want Thomas Dekker as for the role of Peter Parker / Spider-Man in the reboot.

[ModestMr.Green]

I couldn't see less of Peter Parker in Thomas Dekker. Hell, I wasn't able to buy him as John Connor.

[Darkness Falls]

just a thought

Peter Parker/spiderman - Aaron johnson
Mary Jane - Emma stone
Gwen Stacy - Dakota Fanning
Harry Osborne - Anton yelchin
JJ - Stephan Lang

Norman Osbourne/Green Goblin - kevin bacon
Doc Ock - Sam Neil
Electro - Zachary quinto
Venom - jensen ackles
Carnage - cillian murphy/christopher waltz
Kraven - Gerad Butler

[ModestMr.Green]

Waltz and Murphy would be wasted talent on a nobody like Carnage.

[ImWithTeamConan]

For this first one:

Spidey- Logan Lerman
MJ- Ashley Greene
Gwen- Dakota Fanning
Harry- Anton Yelchin
JJJ- Jeffrey Dean Morgan
Aunt May- Diane Lane with a bit of makeup
Kraven- Gerard Butler

[Young Superman]

How about Kyle Gallner as Peter Parker / Spider-Man?

I liked Gallner but I always seem him in the guilt-ridden troubled kid archetype. Good Peter but not sure about Spidey.

[Captain America]

He'd need to buff up for the part, But I think he could do it, To me, Peter needed to be the last person you'd expect to be a super hero.... I Think he could fit that

I might say he'd probably make for a better Harry, then Peter...? just IMO

[TheWallCrawler]

Reece Thompson is totally gonna be the one who will play Peter Parker/Spiderman. He is the only teen actor that doesn't look too popular and yet he doesn't look too goofy or nerdy to play the part. Everybody says that Logan Lerman should play him, but Peter Parker definitely doesn't have a baby face thing that Lerman has. My second choice would be Aaron Johnson because he was amazing in kick-ass

[Majik1387]

Reece said no thanks to playing another superhero anytime soon, Sony is on a time limit that Reece won't agree with.

[ModestMr.Green]

Aaron.

[Majik1387]

Yeah, that randomly occurred to me today when I was discussing it with friends. Was wondering how many posts I was gonna get with a correction.:O

[batman44]

I like the suggestion of Reece Thompson:up:

[VenomVsSpidey]

Aaron johnson. this kid is so spidey

[Gamma Goliath]

Didn't he say he's not gonna do it? Plus kick ass is too similar to spiderman.

[OptimusPrime114]

Nonsense, the Glee cast are fine actors. I wouldn't mind seeing Dianna Agron or Cory Monteith in there.

EDIT: I agree. Besides, it's stupid to hold a grudge against an actor/actress because of what he/she's been in.

P.S.: Am I the only one who felt that Matthew Morrison has a Mr. Fantastic vibe?

[Anwar]

I think Joseph Fiennes would work better as Mr. Fantastic, or Dr Strange.

[SpeterMan3]

Mary Jane Watson-Lyndsy Fonseca

Off topic-We've been Shaq attacked. :huh:

[Venom160]

Electro - Zachary quinto
Venom - jensen acklesI agree with these choices 100%. :up:

[sabetoonth]

what he said^

[DACrowe]

YAWN.

Most of this thread seems to be nothing but fanboy picks from other fanboy movies. Let's get Percy Jackson to be Spidey? No, no, let's get John Connor from that canceled Terminator TV show to be Spidey? What about Aaron Johnson? I mean Kick-Ass was literally a satire of Spidey, so he's already played the character once...

:doh:

I'm not trying to be mean, but let's expand beyond the obvious choices. Same with the girlfriends. Emma Stone (the girl from Zombieland) as MJ and Kick-Ass's girlfriend (Lyndsy Fornesca) as Spidey's girlfriend, Gwen?

For the record Aaron Johnson said he has no interest in playing another superhero and I don't blame him (especially one like Spidey who is basically a less comedic version of KA). I imagine a lot of these actors are the same way.

I actually saw a very intriguing suggestion on the last page. Cory Monteith as Flash Thompson? If Flash Thompson has a major role that would be perfect casting. But he is discredited because he is best known for being on Glee? Talk about genre bias. Cory's role on Glee isn't even that far removed from Flash Thompson, it is just the show is a musical and so toxic for many fanboys. But in all honesty, Glee is a better produced show, even as a musical, than 4 out of every 5 last superhero movies.

But let's not go outside the box here...

For the record, one actress on Glee, Dianna Agron, would be pretty perfect for Gwen Stacy depending on her chemistry with whoever they cast as Spidey. But I guess because she is in a musical she is out of the running.

Psst...Wolverine's signature role is an out-and-proud singing gay man on Broadway, by the way.

[sabetoonth]

i heard that the kid from journey to the center of the earth is rumored for Spidey, yes the Brendan Fraiser one

and i was jsut thinking reading that post, depending on who theyd cast as Spidey, who was the protagonist in Jennifer's body? what about her as gwen? jsut random thoughts on that casting

[DACrowe]

I believe you're talking about Amanda Seyfried. I have been a big fan of her's since the first season of Big Love (and I know she has fans going all the way back to her supporting work on Mean Girls).

Amanda Seyfried would completely own the role of Gwen. Unfortunately, she is too big now to play "the girlfriend." She was the star, along with Meryl Streep, in Mamma Mia! which was a huge hit. She also had another hit in that teen weepie a few months ago, Dear John. I know she is getting reviewed well for her art/erotica film that opened this month, Chloe and has a romcom coming out this summer.

In short she is on her way to being a big Hollywood star. I doubt she is going to play a secondary role at this point a 3-picture deal. If they need a Black Cat in a sequel, she would be perfect though.

[sabetoonth]

guess i wasnt such a bad idea lol
big names do take secondary roles though, micheal caine in the nolan batfilms, uhmm i actually cant name anymore right now lol

but yeah, i get what your sayin

I always thought Amanda Seyfried would make a great Tandy Bowen in a Cloak & Dagger movie.

[Rodrigo90]

How about Kaya Scodelario as MJ ? She was in Clash Of The Titans
,and I recommend her performance in Skins.

http://www.contactmusic.com/pics/lb/tormented_premiere_190509/kaya_scodelario_5298395.jpg

Just dye her Red.

[ImWithTeamConan]

Seyfried's too much of a big star and a bit older than I think they're going for.

[DACrowe]

^^ Who was she in Clash of the Titans?

Anyway, on my post from yesterday, this girl could make a solid Gwen Stacy:

You know, I actually have no idea. :woot:

But she was really good in teen drama Skins,look her up on Youtube.

[sabetoonth]

hmm seen her on glee, now i know who your talking about.. she could do it imo

[smooth3006]

Who wants Miley Cyrus for MJ?...wheres my gun?

(BANG)


i just want miley to become legal so she can pose for playboy...have you seen her body in a bikini? :wow:


and...it would not surprise me to see a few disney teens cast in this movie.

[david icke]

You know, I actually have no idea. :woot:

But she was really good in teen drama Skins,look her up on Youtube.

yeah, i've liked her in skins as well, but i'm not sure she could do the gregarious side of MJ very well. She seems more suited for the distant, quieter, cold type, which is what she plays in skins very well.

and yes to 'quinn' from glee for gwen, she would be just right for the role, not sure if she would be able to fit in the time for a big movie along with the tv schedule though. that's what took jensen ackles out of the running for captain america.
she played the head cheerleader in s2 of heroes as well.

[Rodrigo90]

yeah, i've liked her in skins as well, but i'm not sure she could do the gregarious side of MJ very well. She seems more suited for the distant, quieter, cold type, which is what she plays in skins very well.

Ive seen her in that Untamed video...Phwoar! Its OK for me to say that as she's legal in the UK.:woot:

[david icke]

Yeah thats true. Maybe Ultimate Gwen,cause she was more like that?

i have only read a couple of pages on her that someone posted a while back, i have not read usm so couldn't really say.
she is so laid back in skins that i find it hard imagining her in any other type of role tbh, so maybe i am doing her an injustice and she is capable of a lot more. but my gut says she would not be the type for a gregarious role like mj, damaged, depressed gwen from usm, maybe.
mind you, i hope they go with 616 gwen, but as long as she is well writtten and is a good character, i'm sure i will not mind which version they use.

[Mrpaul]

Still waiting on this one

[THE MR. TERRIFIC]

I don't think they should cast to young. We're still talkin' about a superhero here. He's gotta be able to pack on some muscle. Even Ultimate Spidey has muscles. Skinny muscles, but muscles none the less.

[Young Superman]

I still think Thomas Dekker would make a good Peter Parker.

[Spider-Fan83]

edit:
As far as Mary Jane goes, I've always been a big supporter of Mary Winstead getting the job. Yeah, she's in her mid-20's, but she could pull it off easy. I also like Emma Stone and I'm very happy somebody suggested Danielle Panabaker because she is beautiful and I think she would really do well. Also, very nice on Hugh Laurie as Jameson. That's some very wicked casting right there.
what about Danielle's younger sister, Kay...? (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0659048/)

I really love to note the looks of Kaya Scodelario. I think she has refreshing beauty, as well as looking a lot like MJ. She is a brilliant upcoming actress. It would be great for her to be paired up with Logan. Its hard not to have a crush on her.:awesome:

She definitely has a uniquely attractive look. Also has a close resemblance to Anne Hathaway. I'm just not sure if I can see her as a bombshell redhead model. Nor does she really remind me of how MJ is typically portrayed.

Pinpoint accuracy isn't totally imperative, though. I suppose if MJ is "just" a redheaded hottie, it'd be fine.

[austen]

danielle panabaker/k scodelario would make great MJs in a USM story arc and Logan Lerman would be able to pull off PParker/Spidey but isn't he in negotiations to play D'Artagnan in the 3 Musketeers 3D remake? That may already preclude any serious consideration for spidey. Though if sony wants to bring in a younger audience esp with the opening close to the Bat 3 release date, they may want to rethink a Lerman casting as the kid just got 2 mtv movie awards nominations that hints at a serious fan base build up.

He was good. His voice immediately recalls Peter's from the USM video game, and half of his lines are sarcastic banter with the other members of his family. It's a long shot that they'll approach him, but I'd welcome his casting.

[Majik1387]

Kaya Scodelario is kinda growing on me.:up:

[ImWithTeamConan]

[LegendaryCaleb]

How about crawford wilson for peter? Sure, not the best look-alike, but he is good. Right?

[NinjaCarm]

Anyone else going to be pretty bummed if Logan Lerman doesn't turn out to be Spider-Man?

[Majik1387]

I won't be bummed as long as another decent actor who can act and look the part is cast, Logan just happens to be my top choice.
Like I'd be just as happy with Reece Thompson, but I'd be bummed if Aaron Johnson were cast.

[ImWithTeamConan]

Lerman was my choice but at this point I'm thinking he's not in it.

[Gamma Goliath]

Isn't reece thompson a little old. He was the kid from nightmare on elm street right?

No. You're thinking either Kyle Gallner, Thomas Dekker, or Kellan Lutz

Strong should be Mysterio. Weaving is already Red Skull. Daniel Day-Lewis or Christoph Waltz wouldn't be bad as both Norman Osborne and Green Goblin. Ralph Fiennes is another guy that'd be a good Green Goblin. Isaac looks like Norman from the comics but I don't think he could pull off a good GG voice.

[Nimibro]

yeah, i thought of it once too, but isn't he too old? i mean, tobey was spidey when he was 22...

[Gamma Goliath]

Well, if spidey is gonna be 17, then we're gonna need young actor. Nobody in their 20's.

[FaT_tONle]

yeah, i thought of it once too, but isn't he too old? i mean, tobey was spidey when he was 22...

Try 26... he was 27 when it was released. No way can they go anywhere near that old. 21 max. Even then, if they plan on doing 2 more sequels in highschool, kid needs to be no older than 19.

[NotSoLongAgo]

Well I vote for Logan Lerman as Peter, I dont know why, but when I first thought of him as Peter, he was perfect for the role, he just needs to buff up a bit. And Roger L. Jackson for GG's voice, now that would be sick.

[Nimibro]

he was 22 in the 1st film. i think they officialy said lerman won't be spidey, after the rumors and everything...

[cin0]

^ that's wrong. tobey macguire was born in '75 the movie came out in 2002 tobey was 22 in '97 and 27 in 2002. he was in his mid 20's win they were makeing the movie

[Nimibro]

hmm... someone told me he was 22, weird... so that means that if they do 3 films hihg-school, 3 films college, you need someone that's 19/21 right now? why not thomas dekker, aaron johnson or michael angarango?

[cin0]

i think angarano could still do it. i dont really feel dekker or johnson.

[Chewy]

Even as Alvin Sargent rewrites the script for Columbia’s rebooted “Spider-Man,” director Marc Webb has been ensnaring actors in his web(b) in his search for the new Peter Parker, aka Spider-Man.

Webb has been meeting and reading actors quietly for several months, but the list has narrowed in the past week or two. No screen tests have been conducted at this early stage (though it will be a requirement), and insiders point out that the director and studio are still on the lookout.

The candidates for the web-slinger include:

-- Jamie Bell: The 24-year-old English actor, repped by WME and Artists Independent Management, who made his film debut playing the title character in “Billy Elliot,” has been doing the proper British actor thing in period movies such as “Nicholas Nickleby” and “Jane Eyre” (he’s also appeared in Hollywood movies such as Peter Jackson’s “King Kong” and Ed Zwick’s “Defiance”). More important, he’s already stepped into the comics world by portraying Tintin in Jackson and Steven Spielberg’s “The Adventures of Tintin” movie, which won’t hit screens until December 2011.

-- Alden Ehrenreich: The Los Angeles-born 20-year-old has a juicy backstory, having been “discovered” by Spielberg, who saw a comedy video starring Ehrenreich at a bat mitzvah of his daughter’s friend. A couple of TV appearances followed, but the actor’s next big leap came when he was cast by Francis Ford Coppola in 2009’s “Tetro.” He is repped by WME.

-- Frank Dillane: The 19-year-old Brit’s main credit is last year’s “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince,” where he played a young Tom Riddle. Is a minor role in a “Potter” film a good springboard for a mega-franchise? It worked for Robert Pattinson.

-- Andrew Garfield: The L.A.-born actor had a short stint on a BBC TV series called “Sugar Rush” but gained notices for playing a young reporter in a gritty British TV movie trilogy titled “Red Riding.” The 27-year-old appeared in “The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus” and will be seen in David Fincher’s movie about Facebook, “The Social Network.” He is repped by CAA and the Collective.

-- Josh Hutcherson: The youngest actor of the bunch -- he turns 18 this year -- is also the one with the most experience. The past six years alone have seen the Kentucky-born kid rack up credits with key roles in Jon Favreau’s “Zathura,” drama “Bridge to Terabithia” and the upcoming “Red Dawn” remake. He appears in the Sundance hit “The Kids Are All Right,” which insider buzz suggests could be an Oscar contender, and starred with Brendan Fraser in “Journey to the Center of the Earth.”

Hutcherson, repped by ICM and Beddingfield, just signed on to star in the “Journey” sequel, and that movie could prove a fly in the ointment if the actor’s schedule collides with “Spider-Man.” (Though you can bet every effort would be made to make it work.)

The group of actors seems to fall in line with what Webb has been looking to do with his take on Spider-Man, which is to cast relative unknowns in a story that roots Parker back in high school. The movie will be an angst-ridden tale of a teen dealing with the knowledge that his uncle died even though he had the power to stop it.

Columbia wants to begin production by year’s end, but Webb and the studio are taking their time choosing the actor while Sargent gets the script in spider-shape.

A Columbia spokesperson did not comment on the casting process, saying “There have been a number of names floated online and almost every week, someone calls with a new rumor. We are not commenting on the casting process or rumors such as these.”

Interesting....

[Pac-Master]

http://www.heatvisionblog.com/2010/05/meet-the-men-who-could-play-spiderman.html
So its Jaime Bell, Alden Ehrenreich, Frank Dillane, Andrew Garfield, and Josh Hutcherson.

[Rodrigo90]

Josh Hutherson wouldn't be a bad choice actually.

[Rodrigo90]

I kinda like Josh Hutherson,he seems a pretty decent actor.

[FilmNerdJamie]

Josh Hutcherson...for Spider-Man? Sounds familiar (http://www.iesb.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=9043:iesb-exclusive-another-candidate-has-emerged-for-spider-man&catid=43:exclusive-features&Itemid=73).

[Dark_Lord]

I don't really like any of those.

[Pac-Master]

In my opinion, I think all those choices are terrible.

[OptimusPrime114]

If the reboot was based on Earth-616 (regular), Andrew Garfield.

But since it's Earth-1610 (Ultimate), Josh Hutcherson or Jamie Bell.

[TheseScars]

I don't like any of them. If Josh Hutcherson gets this I won't buy a ticket. Out of those 5 Frank Dillane is my choice but I wouldn't chose any of them. I still don't think this will be any good because they've handcuffed themselves with making him a kid.

[Showtime]

Hutcherson.

[spidermanJLA!~]

Andrew Garfield kind of reminds me of mtv spider-man

[TheComicbookKid]

they haven't done any screen test yet?

[Crook]

Alden's the only one I could put myself behind from that list (which is particularly crappy btw). He's as close to unknown as you'll get, but he has the backing of both Coppola and Spielberg as a talent. Plus he's the only one out of that crew I can buy as a superhero. No joke everyone else looks like some pushover that cannot pull off the heroic act. They all look so...weak.

Alden can look very meek, but when made up he's also quite the handsome guy. He's a mix of Depp and Dicaprio which will easily sell his face as the next heartthrob (which I'm sure Sony wouldn't mind). I don't see any of the others having this x-factor.

Logan Lerman FTW!


Oh wait...........

:(

[LadyVader]

To bad Andrew Garfield is the oldest. He would've got my vote. Cute, smart, good actor.

So I'm gonna go with Jamie Bell. We know he's agile and stuff (Billy Elliot) and he got in good shape (http://www.imdb.com/media/rm1463717120/nm0068260) for Eagle of the Ninth.

[sweetre15]

I actually woudn't mind Logan Lerman or Steven R.McQueen for Peter Parker

I also think of Scout-Taylor Compton for Mary Jane

[Nimibro]

i had a dream... and it told me two things: why not frankie muniz as spidey and william H macy as dr. connors/lizard? the dreams like this: i woke up, opened the speyu reboot wikipedia page, and it wrote frankie muniz.....spider-man, then i had a wacky meeting with H. macy, and i saw a "the mazing spider-man" script in his bag, with "dr. connors" lines marked... i truly had these dreams...

[austen]

Still think LOGAN LERMAN is the best choice for PP/Spidey but he's signed on for starring roles in 2 projects and maybe he's smart enough to stay away from this reboot.

Passing over Lerman, Yelchin, McQueen or Aaron Johnson for this lacklustre, no charisma, no Parker vibe list just shows the lack of vision of sony and marc webb.

How do they expect to go head to head with Bale and company in 2012. Don't they realize casting is key.

[Majik1387]

Blegh to that list.

[Young Superman]

THAT LIST SUCKS!!! Logan Lerman for Peter Parker Dangit!

[Rodrigo90]

Logan Lerman in Perks of Being a Wall-CRAWLER!!!

[Nimibro]

i'm with frankie muniz or jamie bell for spidey, and doug jones/william H macy for lizard...

[Spider-Fan83]

I don't know that I could still buy Muniz as a highschool teen... ya, he still looks kinda young for his age, (tho, that mainly cuase he's short) but, he's nearly 25 already an not lookin that great these days
http://img686.imageshack.us/img686/5508/frankiemuniz.jpg (http://img686.imageshack.us/i/frankiemuniz.jpg/)

as for Bell, good young act... though, I personally see him more of a Harry type, myself... but, again nearing his mid 20's

[Mrpaul]

Still waiting on this

He is actully my #1 choice for Robin

u should use another picture he looks like he's going bald in that one.

[LadyVader]

I don't think he'll get the part because he's kinda old, but I'm liking the idea of Andrew Garfield more and more.

7hz2Dt4QPFs

Look at those moves! :P

JN5B7WH7YDE

I still think Lerman is the best choice myself. Don't know what happened to leave him off the finalists , but I think it was a mistake. Aaron Johnson would also be another good choice along with Yelchin but my guess is they really want super cheap actors who bigger named aren't up and comers.

In other words they don't want people who may begin to have clout as their career goes on and therefore can hold execs over a barrell in terms of a salary raise per film.

Surprisingly, Garfield is my choice as well. He's quirky and, most importantly, different than the usual Hollywood-type casting (like Hutcherson sort of is). Kind of like how Peter is...he's not your run of the mill hero. He's no Steve Rogers, who just looks like a superhero. Peter's got to have that almost homely, average quality about him.

If Garfield can pull off an America accent, then I want him as Parker.

[Droogoonie789]

Out of that list, I'd have to say Hutcherson. Jamie Bell's a really good actor and all (LOVED The Chumscrubber), but I don't see him as Spidey.

[weezerspider]

He is actully my #1 choice for Robin

Nothing against the kid, or your opinion, but I just don't like the idea of Robin in a Nolan style Bat-film.

[Sebastos]

Lerman is still my top choice, don't like the list.

He did an american accent in Lions for Lambs which was... decent I guess.

2KI33cWU8nM

The native speakers need to tell me. It seems to me he's trying to mask his accent by talking faster.

[antonydelfini]

I like the Andrew Garfield guy! He is like the Ditko Parker!

[Man of Tomorrow]

Andrew Garfield for the win!


Josh Hutcherson looks fat.

[Rodrigo90]

You know...Andrew isnt a bad choice...

[Man of Tomorrow]

Sadly, he's probably unlikely.

Since he's 27.

[LadyVader]

He'll be 28 this august even :(

Yeah it's unfortunate, especially since Tobey Maguire was 26-27 when he became Spiderman and he could still pass for a highschooler. But if they're trying to remake the franchise it's understandable why they'd want to go younger. Still... maybe he could be a villain. Like Electro. :P

[Rodrigo90]

Thats a shame,he would have been quite good IMO.

I really cant get Logan Lerman...He must surely know the support he's getting from fans? Sony must know he is a big deal and a fan favourite? Spider-Man is a massive opportunity...Any one of us if given the chance would kill to get that part,all Lerman has to do is go up to Marc Webb and say "I want to be Spider-Man damn it".

Screw Percy Jackson and The Toga Of Zeus or whatever its called. Screw The Three Muskateers directed by Paul W.S. Anderson who just...you know, with every video game adapt. (I cant bash him as he is from Newcastle). C'mon Logan you FOOL, be Spider-Man damn you!!!

my sentiments too but really logan lerman or any fan favorite for the role hardly has any control over this. And after Sony publicly declared that he's not getting the part what's an up and coming new hollywood it boy supposed to do? he has to seriously consider other films on offer. Musketeers has a cool cast and a chance to work with Christoph Waltz and Perks of Being a Wallflower, a cult classic and much coveted acting vehicle for any young actor.

No one's been cast yet and they still have to do screentests so the new spidey may not even be on that list and is still out there or for lerman fans may have been on the list before, is now out, but could get back in contention. look at the cap america casting where the guy who didn't even read or get a screentest was suddenly offered the role. stranger things have happened. i would like to see sony and webb take a closer look at the choices and consider what many fans have been saying for the past few days: What?! you passed over Lerman for this weak list?

Just don't go hutcherson please that would be too kiddie and tho Garfield is a terrific actor, he may be too old for the franchise like this.

[LadyVader]

It's unfortunate that other superhero flicks can get away with older actors (Iron Man, Captain America) and Spiderman is stuck looking for somebody in their teens, early 20's. There are just not enough good, charming, respectable male teen/early 20's actors out there. An actor in his 20's is more than likely all attitude and very little professionalism. I think we already covered this in the casting for Captain America.

[Rodrigo90]

Andrew is a bit old,but he is the best candidate. The scenes with Heath,you really saw the fun Spider-Man like behaviour. He looks like he can pass for somebody young and he gives of the vibe...Just because Spidey is in High-School,is it important to get young actors for it? Andrew is too good to pass up IMO

[LadyVader]

It's not just cause of the high school thing but other things to consider as well. If Andrew gets it, by the time a sequel comes out he will be 30 playing a college student and it will get harder and harder pretty fast to hide his real age. Also, imo, 25-35 is THE time to be an actor in Hollywood when you get the most work. There aren't as many GOOD roles for a teen as there are for a 25-35 actor. So basically you'd be tied down to a franchise during the best time of your career.

Naturally Sony would be interested in casting a young actor that they can milk for a longer period of time and that won't be as solicited as say Tobey Maguire was who did plenty of stuff during his Spiderman years. Granted in his case it was also because he was an established actor before the Spiderman movies.

agree you could see Tobey age in SM3, he was getting flabbier and seemed less engaged in the role. while garfield could pull it off in the first film, looking like a young parker in the next two will be increasingly harder. though i wanted to see logan lerman get the role, garfield could work. but sadly they may opt to give it one of the younger guys on the list

[JP]

Apparently Andrew Garfield is also up for the role of young Cyclops in First Class.

[LadyVader]

Really? That's interesting. Wouldn't that make Cyclops just 4 years younger than professor Xavier!? LOL I've been following Andrew since his role in Boy A where he was brilliant and honestly, I would've never imagined I would see him a superhero movie! Like somebody said, he's so quirky and kind of unusual. I am however happy that Hollywood seems interested in the guy, I just don't think he has that bankable quality big studios are looking for.

Anyway, let's see some stuff from Jamie Bell who's my second choice.

Some fighting against Samuel L. Jackson in Jumper. Starts at aroun 2:25

XfMK3KWFR8s

Billy Elliot. He was a wee lad here but he's still agile. And look out for 00:36 when it appears he wants to climb on the walls. :)

UOGBTFFxOpY

And some nice drama in Hallam Foe.

IXMvKpjxh2c

[chaseter]

That list of 5 is terrible. The young actors they have picked are terrible and the ones that look like Peter or can act are nearly 30.

Wow, what a great list of 5:dry: My hopes for anything good are continuing to plummet.

[JP]

Yeah, it's a pretty awful list.

[hobo123]

i am probably going to be disagreed on this but i vote Tom Felton for PeterParker/Spider-Man. great actor and i think he can definitely pull-off an american accent

Sorry but... :barf:

Ironically or not I think he'd make a much better Harry. :P

[chaseter]

Tom Felton would be a terrible Peter Parker. He might be a good Max Dillon but I don't think he is a great actor anyways.

[hobo123]

well he's a way better actor than the kid from Percy Jackson, I thought he was horrible in that movie

[cin0]

r u serious?

[hobo123]

yeah i am serious, that scene when he finds out he is the son of poseidon and all, he was simply horrible in that scene, well atleast to me

[NinjaCarm]

I can't believe the top 5 that just came out. If someone was going produce a list of the 5 worst possible Peter Parkers, this would be it.

The only one I can see out of this list would be Frank Dillane, he looks like a young Ultimate Peter Parker.

They couldn't just get Logan Lerman, right? That would have been too good and dead on.

A big resounding NO to the rest of the four.

Err...yeah. I can't be the only one tired of grown adults playing dress-up. I swear it's like people forget what HS was like.

[Rodrigo90]

Yeah. I certainly wouldn't want to see adults frolicking around with kids...Andrew Garfield is by far the best on that list and he made the big mistake of being born in 1983!!!

There has to be more candidates,these cant be the only ones surely to God?

[Majik1387]

Yeah, this list kind of depresses me. Even if they didn't get Logan Lerman, I'm sure there are young actors out there that would be better suited to the role than them.

The fact that Jamie Bell is even on the list depresses me.
Josh Hutcherson is an alright choice if not disappointing.
Never really seen Alden Ehrenreich or Frank Dillane, but neither look how I, and I'm sure most, envision Peter.

I like Andrew Garfield for a college aged-older Peter, but we know the reboot isn't going that direction.

[Man of Tomorrow]

This is a sad sad list indeed.

[Rodrigo90]

Its more or less pick your poison...Im hopeful in the comings months more candidates will be chosen...but I bet its Hutcherson. Still,Im being hopeful.

[TheWallCrawler]

Please can somebody tell me, how does Logan Lerman look like Peter Parker? He doesn't look anything like the ultimate or the amazing version of Peter!!! And don't even mention the newest ultimate version of Peter, cause that is the worst possible version of him

[TheWallCrawler]

I would go for an actor that may not be well known but suits the role rather than taking a known actor that would be terrible for the part

[Man of Tomorrow]

Josh Hutcherson as Spider-Man? Meh. What is this guy...like 5'3?

http://z.about.com/d/movies/1/0/X/B/T/kidschoice2009pic16.jpg

I'm underwhelmed by this choice.

[LadyVader]

Too bad that Michael Welch changed so drastically growing up. I think he would've made a great Spiderman. :) If Twilight hadn't ruined him!

I like him. He's not too good looking,just average. He can be funny,and no doubt nerdy. He is a pretty good actor.

He was in a show with Aaron Johnson...I had trouble trying to distinguish Aaron from being male or female,lol.

[ModestMr.Green]

I like him, but having seen him in British films before, I'd be far too distracted by his heritage. It would take me out of the film as much as if not more than Natalie Portman's fake accent in V for Vendetta.

Perhaps. But he really is quite good at different accents. Check out Nowhere Boy when he's singing to Aaron Johnson,he had a pretty good American accent there. His voice nailed for an Ultimate interpretation,like the VG.

I could really picture him as Spider-Man.
