Homecoming The Next Spider-Man

[Ghostcrow13]

The age of the actor doesn't matter too much if they look like a teenager, the problem is you need to think to the future and think how long you're gonna have to PP as a teenager, in which case casting a 25 year old to play a 17 year old could work, but then the next film when the actor is 28 playing an 18 year old might not work.

Height isn't majorly important, but would you want a 6'7 Pete?

 

[Frodo]

Lerman would be an interesting choice since he has the name value already and was a popular fan choice even before Garfield got the role.

 

[SpideyK]

As long as the actors looks and comes off as a teenager... Well, there we are.

Doesn't really matter if the actor's 19 or 29.

 

[OriginalMiles]

Dane DeHaan for Spidey then.

I'm guessing that's hyperbole, Miles.

Look, I don't give two ****s whether the actor's 5 ft 5 or 6ft 2. It doesn't matter, and even if it did; http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Tom+Cruise

You know I'm just playin', K.

Dane DeHaan for Spidey then.

Let's leave the talking forehead out of this Spider-Man universe. Imagine he had a baby with Taryn Manning? It'd probably look like Sid from Toy Story...

...

first of all, how dare you.

I do remember the shortlist for Spider-Man actors back in 2010. Even with Sony looking for a young actor to portray Peter in his high school years, they went with the oldest actor on the list... a 28 year old Andrew Garfield.

 

[OriginalMiles]

Probably because Andrew was the better actor.

 

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

Probably because Andrew was the better actor.

He was certainly the most experienced.

Yeah, but did you see the pics I edited in? C'mon Miles, I know you want to laugh.

 

[OriginalMiles]

so much potential....

 

[harryoscop]

I'm rooting for you Dylan!

That Dane pic always makes me LOL.

Pretty sure that girl is fem-Dane... like, seriously.

They're long lost siblings... If they were ever in a movie together I don't know if I'd be able to handle it.

Dane and Taryn as the murderous twins, Leo Dicaprio is their dad.

Such a shame... he just needed better scripts and better direction.

Which one looks like the teenager

 

[OriginalMiles]

Which one looks like the teenager

A bit unfair, considering Dylan hasn't shaved and Thomas is forever a 12 year old.

 

[BatsDC]

I recognise the kid on the left. He was in Doctor Who

 

[harryoscop]

Which one looks like the teenager

Who is that kid?

 

[JOE]

I love Andrew, I think he's a great actor... I just never bought him as Spidey, appearance wise. He acted the role great, I just thought his body type and overall demeanor was too far off. I want to see a timid, introverted Spidey. Let's save the confidence for when the mask is on.

 

[Ghostcrow13]

Exactly.

Though I think both would be great, I would go with Thomas just because of his youthful nature and he could play a teenager in 2016,17,18,19,20.

Let's not forget that whilst he might make a cameo in CW, his likely first major intro will be IW if they don't do a netflix series, in which case his first solo adventure would be 2019, 2020 when most these actors people are suggesting will be nearing 30.
