LOL!

Sad but true. Poor Billy.

 

[Webhead2006]

Even though billy tweet isn't right way to go. But it worked for Vin getting a role. But that's the thing we don't know if billy was even a option ever did he test did he not. We know so little on the actual casting process. Or for that matter if casting is still on going.

 

[Pecola1]

Spider-Man couldn't have become Spider-Man in phase 1. There's just no way you can go through all of these films and Spider-Man isn't at least referenced. I think he becomes Spider-Man sometime after AoU.

Exept that Feige has said spidreman is already spiderman in the world, before aou.

Very sad. :/

Still think it's a mistake to pass on the two best and most popular actors under 25 just to cater to some dumb High School theme and age restriction. O'Brien and Lerman are better actors than these kids they are looking at by a mile, already have built in fan bases and have pretty much proven they could carry a franchise. Forget that fact that I hate the idea of a bunch of High School Spider-Boy movies, it's just a smart business decision and both are very good actors that are capable of nailing the role.

What he said!

Also I'm sure Peter will be 16 year old and most teenagers in movies and tv shows are played by 20 year olds anyway so Dylan could pull it off.

Talion, for God sake, do you REALLY think Variety will say something based on something they've heard on Reddit?!

Get real.

Also, Dylan was considered, I'm sure of it, and I think he's still is cuz Frosty said that Sony and Marvel are looking at early 20 year olds for the role.

So yeah, he could still get the role. Eh Maybe and Sneider may say otherwise but the simple truth is THEY DON'T KNOW, NO ONE KNOWS, not even Sony and Marvel, who they'll cast in the role.

So yeah, anyone could still get it (except for Billy Unger, that is ).

It's not just a dumb theme. It makes a big difference whether they go for a High School Peter Parker or an adult one storywise. It's not like they can just scratch that High School "theme" without affecting their plans for Spider-Man greatly.

No it didn't, it was a completely different situation with Vin.

He never started a campaign for himself for a specific role, he did it in a smart way with teasing Marvel and his fans without ever asking them directly to start a campaign for him.

It isn't allowed to start a campaign for yourself if you're up for a specific role cuz it validate NDA rules.

What all of that mean is that Marvel and Sony never even approached Unger for the role so him starting that campaign is obviously an attempt to make them contacted him and ask him to audition. But that will NEVER happen now after what he did, because it's considered tacky and unprofessional to do what he did and even if it wasn't Marvel just doesn't work like that and they don't like actors who are saying out loud who they want to play and try to make that happen. They like things to be quiet and the actors to denial if they are up for a certain role.

So yeah, he's not going to be Spider-Man.

Frodo I brought this up the other day. Since if the report is true spidey scenes are filming in june. Either casting has to been done for awhile . Or on verge of being finalized. Since they would have to if it isn't already made finish making the suit. Do fitting with the actor to get it fitting just right. Same does actor need to do any weight training or special training for wire work or action fighting etc.... along with scheduling his time with what other mcu actors he be shooting with. These things have to be set up weeks and or months in advance. So things are not done last minute and all.

As for list I said it before I don't care for any of the 5 myself. I don't see Tom or Liam a fit for role. And second if these 5 where it I rather go Nat tim or asa. But asa as I said before I have a variety of concerns with him if he got the role.

Here is a question I got going by past mcu films short lists. That where more solid short lists. From when those first came out. How soon after did the real actor get announced? Any one care to look at up?

As for age of peter again Kevin never specifically said Age was 15 or it was 16. He said it might be either. So heck maybe they themselfs haven't fully locked in age just yet. To be a little flexible on it. But really in dylan case he plays a 17 yr old character resently. No reason he couldn't play a 16 yr old. Again be the character 15 or 16 when we meet him in civil war solo 1. He will only be that age for those 2 films. Then he will be 17 18 19 and so forth the following yrs. And by the time phase 3 ends the character will be about 20 yrs old. With phase 4 seeing the character up to about 25 yrs old. So again who causes the real age of the actor. It's just important if they look young enough for phase 3 filming. After that it doesn't really matter since the character will be an adult then.

Heck on age vs look debate. I myself am 30 in a month. But if I shave I easily pass for about 20 to 21 or even younger to some folks. Age isn't the real factor here. As long as they have young enough looks. And makeup type of cloths or even glasses could fudge real age.

Again who ever is picked. Will only be filming teen peter for the next 3 yrs. The amount of time phase 3 filming will cover. Since by the time phase 3 is over as I keep bring up. Peter won't be a teen any more. And will be early 20s then. So what the deal if a early 20s plays him now. They only be 27 by the time phase 4 starts playing a 20 yr old character. And by the time character hits 25 likely at end of phase 4. The actor be hitting 30. And still be younger then Chris evans is right now at 34. And this pick if he was early 20s. Could still play the role to like 35 and character then would hit that prime ambiguous 28 to 33 age comics have him be. Then by that point actor likely be done with the role. And we move to the next guy who then be anywhere from 25 to 30 yrs old.

As for spidey age thing I brought up this the other day. I would say peter is 15 right now in 2015 mcu. He probably got bite just before or just after the events if aou. So cover next yr during civil war he been in action for like 6 to 10 months. And is just about to turn 16 during civil war events. So then he is 16 in civil war and solo 1.

So this easily explains where he been during all the big events since 2008. He was just a kid elementary school when stark became active. And was in middle school when avengers happened. And he wasn't powered yet. So is a fan boy of them. And was probably caught in the battle of ny but was bidding trying to keep may safe yada yada. And so forth

 

[PeterBenParker]

Are you betraying me now that you think there's something positive with 0'Brien playing the role?

Haha, nope -- just stating he'd work if they were going in another direction. I wouldn't want him period, but I give credit where credit is due.

 

[Hellion]

Wow...didn't see Billy's campaign the last so many hours...

 

[Spider-Gnome]

This may just be semantics, bur in the interview, it sounds like Feige wants Pete in high school to follow his stories from the high school era which weren't capitalized in previous films (according to him). It didn't sound like he was interested in a specific age. He's thinking high school, not a particular age. So when he answers, he was answering he would be in high school, so age 15/16 sounded about right. And again, he said he had no idea how old the actor would be (or if he was cast, he wasn't going to reveal it).

I honestly think Feige will pick whoever he feels best embodies how he envisions Peter, regardless of age.

LOL!

Sad but true. Poor Billy.

Sad thing is he seems like a better pick than the supposed final five.

 

[PeterBenParker]

word.
And perhaps even the o'brien haters would've accepted him if somy and Disney said from the get go that they're doing college Peter pArker (which they should, imo)

As consistent I am with my anti-O'Brien stuff, that'd make me back off immensely for two major reasons:

1. It'd be one of the better choices to make. That way, almost all parties would be satisfied.

2. O'Brien wouldn't just be a possibility, he'd probably already be in contention along with the likes of Lerman, Highmore, etc.

i don't believe Peter Parker is supposed to be 15 right now. That would mean, depending on how long he's been operating as a superhero, that he got bit when he was 13/14, which is ridiculous. That's just too young, and I don't want to see that juvenile of a Spider-Man, even though youth as a big thing of his character arc/mythos.

If they're going with a 15 year old Peter Parker, mark my words that he's going to still be very early in being Spider-Man (talking about a couple of months). If they go the 16 year old route, he could've been Spider-Man for 6 months or a year and was hidden on the under the radar.

I agree with this.

I'd just like an announcement so we don't need to bicker anymore, hate seeing the hypesters bicker...

Agree!

This constant bickering is annoying. Liked it so much better when we were all excited that Spider-Man was joining the MCU!

hm, I don't see any indication there of spiderman though. seems like that is still speculation.

there we go. you just proved my point.

it'd help if we knew just when he was bit and how long he's been a superhero in the mcu. do we have an organized timeline of the mcu from phase 1 to phase 2?

 

[PeterBenParker]

I'm not irrational, just protective -- especially in regards to what's been proposed thus far for the MCU Spidey.

I remember something like that being mentioned, I believe it was it was in chronological order.

[Webhead2006]

Totally and I have no issue if a 20 to 24 yr old where to be picked. If they fit the role best. Again they would be yrs younger then Tobey and andrew where. And by they time they hit the age Tobey and Andrew where when hired. They will have already at least 2 solo films shot. And at least 3 mcu films shot. Again which all would cover the TEEN TIME.

And then post phase 3 as I try to keep bring up peter peter won't bee a teen any more. And be a young adult from 20 to 25 during phase 4. And then phase 5 cover 25 to 30 yrs old. But then character at that point likely once talk of age and they lock him in ambiguous late 20s age frame as comics do.

And still who ever is picked if in early 20s could still play the role for 10 to 14 yrs with ease. Again cause the character won't be a kid for all of mcu.

 

[CaptainWagner]

I'd still bet dollars to donuts that they already have thei Spidey, but are waiting to announce it. It's way too close to the Civil War start date to still be in the casting process.

 

[Webhead2006]

Totally like I bring up. For films like this they don't cast one day and next day guy us set. Even if spidey role is small. He likely be filming fir at least a few weeks. You be surprised how long 3 to 5 mins on film take to actually shoot.

So costume has to be made. Fitted to actor and compare able size stunt folks. They have to work his schedule along with other mcu actors he is shooting with. And like I said did the actor need to do any weight training dieting prior and do any special fighting or wire work training. These things usually happen weeks to a month or two before filming. Even if actor isn't shooting first day of production.

 

[Hellion]

Huh?!

His page is being flooded with #BillyUngerForSpider-Man...his cover photo is changed to Spidey...

Didn't realize he was campaigning hard, after hearing it here...
