I am copying out parts of articles I have found on mtv.com:
Better than most, Raimi knows what it takes to get bunches of kids into a theater on a Friday night. So naturally, during our exclusive interview with the ground-breaking filmmaker, we had to get the latest scoop on his other seismic projects, including "Spider-Man 4."
"Right now, a writer is being sought to write the next installment," Raimi said of the future of Peter Parker, following Marvel's recent separation from original "Spider-Man 4" writer David Koepp, who also wrote the script for the first film. "We're in the very early stages."
When last we spoke with the director of the first three Spidey movies, he mentioned plans to work both the Lizard and the supervillain group the Sinister Six into the next blockbuster flick. Over the last few months, however, Raimi and Marvel have decided to be more receptive of reinvention. "I won't be working on the story," he revealed, insisting he'll adopt a hands-off approach. "It'll be a brand-new writer coming in with a brand-new story a fresh take on the Spider-Man series."
This "fresh take" might not only include the comic's most obscure supervillains, but also entirely new story lines that diverge from (or even contradict) plot details from the three Tobey Maguire flicks. "We're hearing different versions right now and really enjoying the different stories," Raimi said. "Hopefully, we'll hear one that sounds right for the fourth installment."
Asked if he'll then make the key decision to direct the script or take a step back as solely a producer, Raimi nodded. "Yes, that's right. In this case, it's more in the writer's hands. I'm going to let the writer envision where Peter Parker would go to next."
In the months following the success of "Spider-Man 3" and Topher Grace's breakout baddie, Venom, Marvel revealed plans for a spinoff flick. For the first time, Raimi weighed in on his connection with that flick, remaining consistent with a supposedly less-than-enthusiastic attitude toward the terrifyingly tongued alien. "That's probably for someone else," he grinned.
Do you guys like this? Do you think that the movie storyline should be continued on or start fresh? If it starts fresh, then its highly doubtful Tobey and Kirsten will come back. But do you think Raimi should come back?
