Homecoming The Next Spider-Man - - - - - - Part 15

No, he's filming in Ireland, I think.

He already wrapped filming on that movie back in March.

 

[dany]

He only wrapped up a film last month. Would he start filming another movie again?

Yes, he is now filming a movie called Pilgrimage.

 

[Web-Head]

He did say it was down to Asa and Tom last week or something like that. So, maybe he is already cast. I agree though and would think the actor would need to do research and probably bulk up a bit. Tough to do all of that in one month

 

[PeterBenParker]

It's either those two, or at least someone in that age range.

Its a small independent film and he will soon finish it. He could have easily flown to America for a meeting with Marvel.

I'm still having a hard time believing Marvel hasn't cast the new Spider-Man yet...

Hammering out a deal with an actor and his agency takes long enough, they sat on the Benedict Cumberbatch rumors for months (plural) and he didn't even put pen to paper until 3 days before the actual, official announcement that he would play Doctor Strange.

Not only that, but then you gotta physically design suits (plural) that perfectly fit the unique bodies of the actor and the stuntmen, which is a long process by the way. And is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Then you gotta get him acquainted with his surroundings and prep him with the script. And then start shooting.

Spider-Man will be needed on set in June. I doubt they'd be able do all of this in the span of that short amount of time.

At the same time they wont want to rush such a pivotal casting.

 

[harryoscop]

Tom could have already met with Marvel

 

[PeterBenParker]

The build isn't really an issue.

Even more of a reason as to why they should've started and finished the casting a long time ago.

He started filming a movie, is not even in the US, yet he met with Marvel last week. Okay...

Exactly, it make no sense.

Definitely. Guess it is up to Marvel now. Still preferring Holland.

 

[Talion]

"Meeting with Marvel" is a lot broader than you might realize. I do believe that Marvel contacted him and that he's one of the top contenders. "How" and "When" is a different story. Think Chalamet and James were also contacted, and while I still hope that Chalamet will get to audition, I'm not holding my breathe.

So? he could have EASILY flew to the USA and met with Marvel, not a problem at all, just take two days out of filming for him. one day to discuss contracts and stuff like that.

We live in the internet age, and Marvel could easily go to him through someone on their staff.

That too.

I believe Tom has already spoken with Marvel.

 

[gremleytel]

Agree. Doesnt take long to go by plane and he wouldnt be needed on set every day anyway. This is Marvel we are talking about and he is going to jump through hoops if needed.

 

[Web-Head]

We live in the internet age, and Marvel could easily go to him through someone on their staff.

Or they could have even sent someone to where he is filming. Like Ward supposedly auditioned at his own home.

Yes. Some auditions are made via Skype today.

 

[MyDudeSpidey]

Yes, because it takes one day to discuss contracts. It took 2 months for Ben Cumberbatch to put pen to paper.

 

[MyDudeSpidey]

Yes. Some auditions are made via Skype today.

Not necessarily Skype. But yes, they audition through video and send it to Marvel.

 

[Talion]

Difference been that's Spider-Man, not Dr. Strange. The actor getting it will either take it or leave it.

Yes, that's what I meant with "and Marvel could easily go to him through someone on their staff.".

Oops, misread your post

 

[harryoscop]

That was his choice. one has nothing to do with the other. and it's not like he's being officially cast like Cumberbatch.

Marvel could have sent someone to his set OR he could have flew to the USA for a few days.
