The Amazing Spider-Man Official Villian Casting & Discussion Thread

[bruce_kent]

My suggestions:

Diora Bird as Felicia Hardy/Black Cat





Dylan Baker as Dr. Curt Connors/Lizard





Bruce Campbell as Quentin Beck/Mysterio





Josh Brolin as Sergei Kravinoff/Kraven The Hunter





Ben Kingsley as Adrian Tommes/The Vulture




Timothy Olyphant as Mac Gargan/Scorpion

^^Hmm, good list. I'd jsut change Josh Brolin, since he's already playing Jonha Hex and doesn't need to play another comic-book character. A good choice though.

why bruce campbell as mysterio?
hes the man...but i dont understand the love for him as mysterio

Agree! If you want to take Mysterio seriously (as one should lol, he's not as goofy as people seem to think), casting Bruce Campbell as him is the worst you can do.

 

[NewYorkSpider]

Yeah, I don't like Campbell as Mysterio.

 

[LegendaryCaleb]

i totally agree!
of course ive expressed how id like william fichtner to play him...but anybody thats more of a serious actor is better than campy bruce!

 

[Oscorp]

Dude! That's EXACTLY the actor I had in mind too! I guess great minds think alike

 

[Darth Megatron]

alright spiderine who would your Sinister Six line up be excluding gg, doc ock, sandman, and venom

 

[Venom 1988]

Fichtner is a pretty good choice, though I do think Sam Rockwell could do a pretty good a job as well

Too bad he's already involved on Iron Man.

 

[SP1D3RxV3N0M]

I'd say more like a velociraptor instead of alligator.

I just made the comparison because of a McFarlane Spider-man comic book cover feuturing the Lizard.

 

[Sebastos]

I say someone else as Black Cat. Baird is already linked to Thor and imo is a better fit for Enchantress or Valkyrie.

 

[Venom 1988]

Too bad he's already involved on Iron Man.

So? You do realize there have been actors playing in multiple non-related comic movies before?

That doesn't mean I like it that way...

The studios don't care about what you like.

 

[chaseter]

I want to see this villain:

Sorry!

 

[Spiderine]

Well to be honest Megatron, I am strongly oppose to having a sinister six on the big sceen in one of these Spiderman movies. I seriously think it would turn into a ultra cheesefest. I rather would see them focus on the individual strengths of the villains and the threats and dangers they pose on their own to Spidey and the city. Some things IMO don't translate to well and six powerful villains working together side by side hand in hand banding together to free themselves from Spidey's oppression is one of them. And I am against villain resurrections from the Raimi's great beyond.

 

[LegendaryCaleb]

Dude! That's EXACTLY the actor I had in mind too! I guess great minds think alike

you = awesome.
that actor is the man and perfect for the job!

 

[SP1D3RxV3N0M]

That's true, but I don't see it happening though.

 

[SymbioticToxin]

Ok, bare with me again (like some of you have a choice, lol) but if by some chance Raimi had decided to put Morbius in the film, who do you think could play him? I persoanlly would like Richard Roxburg, becuase I want to see him as a vampire again. He was one of the few things I liked about Van Helsing

 

[markstrange]

Someone once said Benicio Del Toro for Michael Morbius, I liked that the Idea.

 

[Darth Megatron]

the next movie should be about kraven, scorpion, and lizard

 

[Hobgoblin]

No way. No to three villains. Both Batman and Robin and Spider-Man 3 had three villains; both films were over crowded. Keep the film sleek and to the point. Just Lizard and Kraven.

 

[SpeterMan3]

I can't say this enough, writing is the key. I can see three villains with a fourth being setup for future films.
