i mean no disrespect, but u cant be serious. may and ben are peters parents siblings they're their aunt and uncle too. these two are way too young. ben and may should be old enough to pass for his grandparents. unless there's some reason y they're so young.

While I agree they were both bad casting ideas, Ben and May are both pretty young in the Ultimate universe. Around mid 40's or so. They shouldn't be old enough to be Peter's grandparents. Second, what the heck did you mean by

"may and ben are peters parents siblings they're their aunt and uncle too"

It makes is sound like you're saying May and Ben are both siblings and the aunt and uncle of Peter's parents. The sentence doesn't make much sense. But any way, they can be young because we're talking about the Ultimate universe. Mid to late 40's or so.

well, obviously as a young actor, those are the type of roles he's been somewhat limited to up to this point in his career, but, I am sure thats not his only interest, in fact this years he is currently working on "Red Dawn" and "Carmel" which are far from family comedies

it doesnt matter how old he is he doesnt have to do just family movies.

everyone has to start somewhere, he found his nitch in family comedies, which got him alot of work, and got his name out there... an as far as family comedies go, he hasn't been in the worth of him (some of them were, maybe, kinda iffy) but, now that he's paid his dues doing the family comedy thing, he is able to branch out and start taking on other roles...(as I mentioned with the Red Dawn/Carmel roles, an wasn't he in that Fragments movie acouple years back) anyway, main point was, he doesn't only want to do those type of movies, was really all I was trying to say

I've just seen Ben and May as these monolithic wise, old characters. Not like in their 80's elderly, but in their 70's, still young at heart, but old, where Peter knows that they eventually won't be around forever and they're all he has for the meantime, and the closest thing he has to a family.

I don't want to see hippie May and Ben. I want to see classic Ben and May. Seriously, the stuff at high school that Bendis gave the Ultimate Spider-Man series keep, everything else should be thrown out. It's rubbish. Seriously, snowsuit Shocker is lame. GG as a fire-wielding demonic horned creature is too much, Gwen Stacy as Carnage is too much, and Scorpion being a clone of Peter Parker is too much.

Keep the high school stories and that's it.

they shouldnt that young. neither of them have any grey or any wrinkles the two of them look like the could pass for his parents. i do get that they're suposed to look young now, but they still shouldnt look that young.

wat i was sayin was that ben and may aren't richard's brother and sister-in-law they're his aunt and uncle, and not just peter's aunt in uncle because they were one of his parent's siblings.

PP shouldn't be good looking???!!!!!!!

Tell that to John Romita- The DEFINITIVE SPIDER-MAN artist of all time.
He drew PP way good looking. Better looking than Efron.
Fact is PP IS good looking.

That don't mean that you can't easily make an attractive guy look much less attractive by changing the way he carries himself, dressing him nerdy & making him un-cool.

It's easy.



High school PP was pretty much invisible to girls, BEFORE he got bitten that is, because he did not have the confidence of being Spider-Man to put supreme confidence and a spring in his step.

Depending on how the origin is shown in SM2012, we may see what PP was like before the bite, we may not.

FACT IS- Once he got his powers, Liz Allen started to dig him (his High School crush & Flash's gal who previously would never give him the time of day) because he was much more confident, and it was not long before Gwen & MJ were all over him.

SO, PP was ONLY invisible to girls BEFORE he got his powers.
After that point he was a virtual chick magnet, a la Zac Efron? Heh



Yea right.

Remember when Ledger was cast as Joker most fans were like WTF?
The gay cowboy dude! This will SUCK!!!! Hheheh.
What about when Keaton got cast as Batman and fans were so outraged that they protested outside WB offices or studios because in their minds they associated Keaton w/ comedy films and thought Batman would be like the 1960's TV show all over again.

A real actor is someone who takes different parts and plays different characters well, turning perceptions on their heads.

I've not seen any of Efron's films but I'm willing to look past his campy dance movies and give him a chance so long as he does not sport that emo haircut. He's got his hair short right now and he bears more than a passing resemblance to Peter Parker, observe-

http://cdn.buzznet.com/media-cdn/jj1/headlines/2010/01/zac-efron-critics-choice-awards-2010.jpg

And as for another crucial aspect, physicality of Spider-Man, Efron has practically been in Ditko Spidey shape in recent times, so we know he can/ would get in good shape-

http://cdn.buzznet.com/media-cdn/jj1/headlines/2008/08/zac-efron-muscle-man.jpg

Finally you talk about 'teenage-girls wouldn't want to see Zac star in a comic-book movie' ..

What you need to understand is that Spider-man movies audiences, generally speaking don't particularly care who gets cast and will go watch Spider-Man movies at the cinema anyway. Spider-Man the name sells the movie, and as for the small percentage that we make up of the audiences, I highly doubt anyone would be able to resist buying a ticket on principle of sporting a short sighted and negative bias towards the lead. All that would happen was that perhaps if he does get cast, his young female fan base would bring more money to the box office.

Personally I could see the potential in Efron and see past High School Musical so long as he keeps his hair short.

I offically resubmit this post here because it needs to be heard.

But that's also what seperates this from the original three. Aunt May in the Ultimate universe is exactly Jamie Lee Curtis. She isn't suppose to just be a cookie cutter aunt who is always worrying about her nephew. She has depth and real character behind her. The only time the 616 Aunt May has had any real depth was when JMS was writing it, or right before she was killed off. Good thing Marvel did away with all that. :whatever:

Personally as a Spidey purist and someone who HATES USM, I want to see Aunt May done in JMS or DeMatteis style.
Tho I don't think Aunt May is going to be one of the main things that separates this film from the previous series.
IMO the Raimi films were too much like USM (USM= Fake SM) for my liking- organics, wrecking Green Goblin, PP being a wuss.

My ideal recipe for SM2012 would be-

1-They take the look of the supporting characters, SM costume, villain costumes, web shooters and characterizations from Stan Lee's run, and give Aunt May a bit more depth.

2-Lift the feel of the soap opera sections and Spidey's humor from the Spectacular Spider-man cartoon.

3-Use the grimey feel of McFarlane's 'Torment' story to flesh out the darker parts of the film; - Ben's death/confronting his killer, villain sections and one or two fights perhaps.

PS- Cheers for submitting my Efron post here.

why can no one ever find a decent pic of his kid to use... no wonder people alway make fun of the idea, when people post the douchist pics they can find...

edit: kinda surprised the fans aren't all over this newest pic of him holding a cam...

anyway, my main reason for bumping this post (and sorry for singling out your post, was just using it as an example) but, it got me thinking, about SCC, what about that younger blonde from that as Gwen (or even MJ with a good dye job) what was her name?

Patrick Fugit. Everyone else you guys are suggesting are too young. Someone in high school can't play someone in high school in a movie. It just doesn't happen in hollywood. Patrick Fugit was good in Almost Famous, he looks for sure like he could play Peter Parker, and IMO better than all these other guys. Besides, all these guys have chiseled good looks, and Peter Parker isn't supposed to be a model, hes supposed to be an average nerdy teenager.

Fugit is too old. And considering the movie will be taking place in high school for most likely more than one movie, I'm sure they will be scouting for actors that look young enough for high school, that can act, and that can last over a couple of movies.

Like Logan Lerman.:yay:

And only Peter's behavior and clothes are average nerdy teenager, not him. I'm not saying he has to be a supermodel, but he's not doofy looking.

Worrying about this and that. Lee and Ditko created a hero that we could relate to in many ways and people forget that nowadays. Thats why they casted Maguire,as he was meant to be the average guy some can relate to.

Peter Parker's never been average save the Ditko era and Ditko was a lame artist anyways when it came to drawing human beings everyone looked the same. :o

Peter has always been a bit of a hunk. The fact he couldn't get girls came from his glasses and lack of confidence. Not that he was this ugly nerdy looking guy who no girl wanted to date. If that were the case, that'd make Mary Jane, Gwen, Liz, Betty, everyone who has been with Peter Parker either A) Personality first, looks second. B) In it to date a superhero. Neither of those are the case.

He's a case of ugly duckling syndrome in a way really. He's the movie cliche where a girl takes her glasses off and suddenly bam, most smoking chick in the room. That's Peter Parker. He's the male version of that.

I like the Thomas Dekker choice for Peter Parker. I mean, I wish we could go back in time and get Topher Grace circa the early days of That 70's Show, but there are many reasons we cannot do that.

I see that the studio has still not learned it's proper lesson and that Gwen Stacey will NOT be the love interest in an origin flick yet again. And this was one mf my biggest beefs with the Raimi origin flick.

EDIT: I dont know why people want Thomas Dekker. Have you guys seen him in Heroes and SCC? He has virtually no charisma. Logan Lerman is perfect in terms of LOOKS but he isn't exactly Spider-man material either. I think most importantly the casting should look for someone who has great charisma or is a really good actor. Spideys personality needs to be done right this time

its a difficult one to approach because like or loathe raimi's spidey movies he placed MJ in the public consciousness, not only that mj was the prominant character in the 90's cartoon AND she was married to peter for years. if gwen is introduced with no MJ in sight the audience will be wondering where MJ is and if MJ and gwen are introduced together the audience may unconsciously dislike gwen as they will be secretly rooting for peter and MJ to hook up asap.

Not to be mean or anything but EVERYONE was drawn the exact same way back then. That one picture you posted of Gwen and MJ, they look far too much alike.

Gwen Stacy and good enough to eat should not be in the same sentence. The real Gwen is not based on looks but her character. Gwen's looks have never played a crucial part of her character, MJ's has. Therefore MJ's looks should trump Gwen's actresses ten fold.

The way a character looks is just as important as who they are character wise. In Gwen's case she was the girl on campus that every guy had the hots for, that would not have been the case if she did not look the way she did.

You might prefer Gwen's 'interpretation' on the SSM show, but that is not who the character is. Not even close. Not in looks and not in character. Aside from her killer looks, Gwen was confident, graceful and sharply dressed. Not an average looking, shabbily dressed insecure geek, ie- a female version of High School PP like in the SSM show.

BTW- Aside from 'Gwen', I think the show is great.

PP first noticed how much he liked Gwen because he was daydreaming about what a 'knockout' she was all the time. They are his actual words.


Gwen's looks have never played a crucial part of her character, MJ's has.

Incorrect.

It was Gwen's looks that first attracted PP and part of what made her so compelling. Just because she did not become a model or Hollywood B-lister does not mean her great looks were not crucial component to who she was.

MJ's character, or rather the character she presented to the world was very different to Gwen's.
But their personalities had nothing to do with their physical beauty.

You'd just prefer her looks not to be a crucial aspect of who she was because it would fit better with the SSM version, or whoever you think the character should be in SM2012.


Therefore MJ's looks should trump Gwen's actresses ten fold.

Fail.

Somehow I think John Romita SR would disagree with you. ;)

she's cute rather than hot.
gwen = cute
MJ = hot They can certainly make her hot. I guess she can use a tan and maybe if her hair was a little darker...but with the right makeup team she could look pretty smoking hot. And besides I think acting is far more important than looks. As much as Mary Elizabeth Winstead looks like a living and breathing Mary Jane literally ripped out of the comics...she is still a pretty bland actress.

The only reason people think MJ is so much hotter than Gwen is because Gwen is a bit of a nerd herself. Exactly. And although the original Gwen looks EXACTLY like Mary Jane except with blond hair (its true, they might as well be twins)....I still dont think she should be as gorgeous as MJ. I actually like the nerdy geeky Gwen (like in Spectacular Spider-man). Gwen shouldn't care about her looks...shes more down to Earth than MJ. She shouldn't care about dressing super nice and what not.

Is everyone forgetting that Gwen did some modeling work of her own? Particularly in this issue...

http://samruby.com/AmazingSpider-ManB/Large/AmazingSpider-Man103.jpg

So the idea of Gwen being just as hot as MJ is totally understandable. MJ was initially presented as more of a popular party girl because she was more approachable and down-to-earth than the more "preppie" Gwen. But looks-wise, they both are supposed to be on the same level -- scorching hotties.

I don't think Gwen should be some blonde bombshell sexpot type of character, but I also really dislike the idea of a nerdy female peter parker-esque Gwen.

It is possible for her to be attractive without being associated to either of what seems to be the only 2 ways of portraying Gwen according to this thread.

I mean, this is sort of how I'd want Gwen in the movie.

I don't like red heads period so I limit my vocabulary to cute in that regard. She has acting chops and a natural red head is way better than another fake red head with a horrible wig.

ok first of all a wig really doesnt have to look horrible, elizabeth banks wore a wig in all three movies and when i first saw her i couldnt even tell it was a wig. a wig could still look good.

second wolls hair isnt even the same red as mj's. mary jane's hair is dark red and woll's hair is an almost blonde red, so her hair still isnt the right color and i really dont think she would look good if she dyed it darker.

Wrong.

Betty Brant, while perhaps facially similar to Gwen and MJ looked nowhere near as good looking as either of them. This was deliberate on the part of Jazzy John; - Gwen and MJ were BOTH intended/designed to be perfect 10's.

It has to do with complexion. Putting red hair on a dark haired individual doesn't work and why risk a wig looking like crap when you can get a real red head:dry: You also have the actress' real hair underneath a wig so why risk making her head look unnatural???

You say wigs are fine but then you complain that Woll's hair is lighter red:dry:

If this reboot is going all out, I want a red head to play MJ.

I wouldn't hold it against the actress if she wasn't a natural redhead, but here's hoping they have a better hair and make up team for the new movie as opposed to Raimi's.

They had horrid wigs and did bad dye jobs, which honestly should not be that hard to do.

My whole point is that i wig doesnt always look bad and when done right it looks real.

I wasnt complaining at all that her hair is a lighter red. u acted as if her having natural red hair makes it any better than a girl who dyes her hair and still looks good with it. u said she would be good cause she has the right hair color but she doesnt have the right hair color.

It doesnt matter to me whether her hair is a natural red or not as long as she looks good with it.

It's the same as people wanting a blonde to play Gwen Stacy. You can just tell when someone is wearing a wig that is not their natural color. What looks good to the costume department might look like crap to us...ie Kirsten Dunst. Natural is always better imo.

natural isnt always better and woll isnt a very good example of that either. i dont think brown was elizabeth banks's natural hair color but to me he hair looked good with the wig on, i didnt even know it was her until i watched it again after seein role models. i wouldnt want them to use a wig but it can work sometimes.

Did they color her hair or wig? I hate wigs. Coloring hair looks way better than a wig. With a wig, you have to blend it into the scalp on the front and the sides and it doesn't always look good. Take Jessica Alba in FF...dear Christ. Why did they just not get a blonde:huh::doh: She looked terrible. Kirsten Dunst looked terrible in the SM movies. Scarlet died her hair for Black Widow and she looks alright. Once again, more a fan of au natural than gaudy wigs but coloring the hair looks way better than a crappy wig.

In some cases. Redheads are typically very pale, however I've seen quite a few fairly tanned women with dyed red hair pulling it off with ease.

and why risk a wig looking like crap when you can get a real red head:dry:
I'd favor dyes more than wigs. Whichever the case, it could very well be a matter of the actress herself. Be it having more talent, containing more chemistry with the lead, fitting the role more appropriately, etc.

Hair color should be by no means a determining factor in casting a role.

Definitely agree. I want a good actress that also looks the part. Kirsten is a good actress, but looks nothing like MJ. I don't want a hot girl with no acting abilities either. You have to find the middle ground. But, for auditions, unknowns come in looking like the character. If they can act and look like the character then hire them! Just don't turn down someone because Megan Fox walks in wanting the job.

They colored Isabella's hair, it wasn't a wig.

I'm not gonna lie, I didn't hate Alba's hair or contacts in the first FF movie. It didn't look natural, but I don't think it looked horrible or anything.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v338/Majik1387/Jessica-Alba-invisible-woman.jpg
The second movie however, it was way too much peroxide and dye going on. And her creepy contacts didn't help.

I'm liking Scarlet's red dye job, though I do think the untouched photos make it look a little blah, but the filtering in the touched up photos and trailers, I think the color is great.

Regarding Hair vs Wigs, it really depends on the actress. I've seen many, many believable wigs, it's just a matter of the quality of it; same goes for hair dye.

Both MJ and Gwen are smoking babes based on their physical looks. However, Gwen's personality is more conservative than MJ's and that alone is why initially more guys would find MJ more attractive because they'd be under the assumption MJ would be up for anything. But as stated before, both are 10s.

To me it just doesn't. She just does not look like a blonde to me. I don't think her darker skin matches the lighter hair and the contacts just made it worse. It is probably why Jessica isn't sporting blonde hair...because it doesn't match her skin tone and she looks better as a brunette.

He also had a very strong turn in Rocket Science. Dude's 21 years old, plenty young to pull off teenage Peter Parker, and he's really got the look.

DDL probably would never do a Spider-Man movie, but he'd be perfect. Norman should not become GG until the end of 2nd/ the 3rd movie. That's when Gwen's death should be done.


I'm doing my casting in multiple stages because whenever I try to do it all at once it ****s up and I can't post it.

I don't cast actors or actresess like Joseph Gordon Levitt or Hayden Panettiere or Mary Elizabeth Winstead because they're too old for this reboot.

The worst cast of ever.

The worst cast of ever would consist of Tobey Maguire as ''Peter Parker" (which he wasn't.), Kirsten Dunst as "Mary Jane" (which she wasn't.), and Bryce Dallas Howard as "Gwen Stacy"(which she wasn't).

Emma Stone as MJ?...
She is NOT a babe!
UNDERSTAND THIS!

Dakota Fanning as Gwen?- The only half decent suggestion for Gwen I've seen so far

Reese Thompson? Not bad..

Too bad this is gonna be a high school PP/SM and not a 20 something PP/SM reboot.
The new film could then have worked like a sequel as well as a reboot like TIH.

If that were the case, it would have been possible to cast Gwen & MJ with my ideal choices-

Gwen (Elisha Cuthbert)
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh2/radioactive-blood/Cuthbert_Golden_Globes_2003.jpg

MJ (MEW)
http://lerevdr.files.wordpress.com/2007/08/sexy_pixie_mary_elizabeth_winstead1.jpg

Both roughly a million times better looking than any other suggestions.

The only bad thing about Elisha Cuthbert is that she can not pull of high school and if they go with someone like Logan L., then she will look wayyyyy older than him. I am still a proud supporter of MEW for MJ.

Like I said, if they were doing a reboot similar to TIH were the main characters were already established, and in this case in ESU instead of Midtown High, then those gals would have been my ideal picks for those parts.

Thing is whoever they pick to be Gwen & MJ have got to super hot imo, and none of peoples suggestions here other than MEW are imo.

In reality, Cuthbert now at 27 is a little old to play a 19-20 yr old Gwen.
I think her fluctuating weight through the noughties has perhaps SLIGHTLY aged her beyond her years.
She's still fine as hell, more so than any others suggested for the role in this thread.

Obviously since it's gonna be high school era, MEW & EC are too old to play 16 years olds.
Not that I want Gwen or MJ to be Midtown students in SM2012, tho either one or both of em probably will be.

Comparing a 16 year old to a 29 year old that's probably had multiple plastic surgeries isn't really fair.




I think they're both hot. :up:

Who's that then?

Neither of the actresses I highlighted are 29 nor had plastic surgery, heh.
