The Amazing Spider-Man Spider-Man 4 set for May 6 2011 release

[chaseter]

Wonderful...set down a date before completing a script or getting most of the crew and cast together.

 

[SpideyZERO]

GREAT!!! Finally a date!

 

[chaseter]

They haven't even started principal let alone nailed down a complete script or cast. This will be X3 rushed to meet a stupid deadline.

 

[shinlyle]

WOOHOO!!!

I cannot wait! This will be my daughter's first Spidey movie(in the theater, anyways)!

I'm also hoping for a Lizard/Kraven combo, and I'm REALLY hoping for a far more personal story, preferrably character-driven, much like part 2 (still the best comic movie ever made).

As for a Batman and Spider-Man showdown, the only person who wins in that instance is the fans! That sounds like a PHENOMENOL summer!!

Of course, I still think the third Batman movie will totally blow chunks in comparison to TDK, though...I am optimistic, for the time being.

I just love the sound of "Spider-Man 4". xD

@Chaseter. How is it being rushed?? They've been writing this since 2007.. they still have about 2 years to get it right. Raimi is not rushing...if they were rushing it would have come out in 2010.

 

[webhead731]

2009 actually. 2 years is really rushing.

I thought the 3 year wait for Spider-Man 3 was worth it, so this better be uber worth it.

 

[kbrooksgohan]

We got got news for this back in 08 when they confirmed James V and David Abaire for writing the script. Spidey 3 came out in 07...I'm sure they've been working on it since then..which equals plenty of time. They would have to have something because they're looking for villians.

 

[Symbiote666]

Can't wait. Hopefully they'll cap their advertising this time, I remember all the major fight scenes being released weeks before the movie was released with SM3.

It's two years away. They've been writing the script for the last year and a half; they've got Raimi, Maguire, and Simmons all back; apparently they've got villains; and filming is scheduled to begin in a year.

This is the complete opposite of rushing. They're definitely taking their time with it.

Don't forget Dunst said "I'm in" but she wouldn't confirm whether she was officially on board for Spidey 4.

And guys, don't forget 2012 has prime territory for S-M 5 (not to mention that's the date rumored for BB3). Either way, Spidey and Batman will go head-to-head in 2011 or 2012 (most likely the latter).

2011 = Great Movies

Dark Knight Sequel

Spider-Man 4.

The Boards will be going crazy that year I can tell you that

For real

 

[The Joker]

I can't wait. Nothing beats the buzz and excitement of your fav super heros having a movie in the making.

 

[American_Hobo]

So is this mean we're gonna get villain news pretty soon?

You do remember that "Spider-Man 2" came out just 2 years after the first one, right?

2 years after the first one, and it was even better than the first one...t:

 

[Blader5489]

Probably not soon, but definitely by the end of the year.

 

[echostation]

It's quite obvious they have Kraven as one of the villains

I can't imagine why else they'd want Mickey Rourke to play one of the spidey villains when his name came up in discussions before he signed onto Iron Man 2..

what else does he suit? Scorpion? Electro maybe?

Probably not soon, but definitely by the end of the year.

That'll be something...

I'm hoping (and banking on) Lizard, Kraven or Electro...if it's any combination of those three, I'll be happy.

 

[webhead731]

We'll get villain confirmations in the next interview with Kirsten Dunst.

 

[NewYorkSpider]

I'm glad we got a release date. I can't wait to find out what villains we'll be seeing.

 

[Batman137]

I think we will get something about what villains we will be seeing sooner then you think.

 

[Kirk Langstrom]

I hope something is announced at San Diego Con this Summer...

 

[Batman137]

I say thats a strong possibilty. Do you recall when they released the picture of the black-suit spidey?

 

[Spider-Ranger]

I think it was in January/February 2006.

the reason was obvious: Back then they were shooting the sequence in front of the demolished bank. They feared that black spidey could be seen during the shoot, so they released the picture to anticipate any speculation.
