Sequels Tobey's replacement as Peter/Spiderman

[Spider-Fan83]

this is a lil off topic, and kinda random, but, if they went for a young parker, in a new movie (or maybe even if they ever did an ultimate movie) Ryan Merriman, might be interesting

[Mr. Socko]

Idk who'll replace Toby, probably an unknown later down the line.

 

[Spiderine]

I have been saying this all along.

 

[blind_fury]

Justin Long is a decent choice but he will be 30 years old next year.

He's too old.

 

[SamuraiSon6]

Jake is good, but I dont think he would suit the role for Peter, Milo Ventimiglia already has the experience playing a superhero like character and has the same characteristics that Tobey uses for Peter Parker. He also looks like he can play Peter in his early 20's.

i dont know if this guy can act, but he actually kinda resembles tobey

 

[Apollo]

me, i'm nerdy enough

 

[doivberg]

Adam Brody.

 

[Mr Jide]

^^ God no!

He's too old.

Agreed. Despite Tobey's real-life age, I don't think his replacement should be the same age as Tobey. Since this will mostly likely be a "revamp" of the whole Spidey franchise (new Spidey, new MJ, and -- yes, I still say -- new director), I'd go with someone in his early 20's.

Oh -- here's the final proof we need a new Spidey, BTW: http://www.superherohype.com/news/topnews.php?id=5290

7 years ago Topher Grace was perfect to play a teenege Peter Parker.

*sigh* What could've been.

 

[Justice Bringer]

I think the guy from Black Donnellys would be the only replacement I'd buy.

He resembles Tobey but has a deeper voice.


Milo V may have been better for a restart but not for this continuation.

 

[The Lizard]

I think a great replacement for Peter in movies beyond the 3rd one would be Milo Ventimiglia, he actually plays Peter Petrelli on the show Heroes.

I don't like the way that Milo talks out of the side of his mouth, Stallone-style.

Hopefully they'll cast and actor and director who understand Spider-man's personality and attitude this time around.

Let's get a Mary Jane that is way too hawt for Peter Parker and some synthetic web formula to prove Spidey's smart enough to match wits with Dr.Ock.

 

[Kurt Wagner]

just end the franchise for now and restart it 10-15 years later with all new actors. Maybe by then it'll be a bigger, better, and truer film, strictly from the comic without unnecessary changes, and for all moviegoers, not just fans.

Besides by then FX will probably be so good they can have have CGI versions of Tobey, Kirsten, and company. just have a new director, stories and characters true to their origins, and Voice overs

 

[Ender Durden]

i dont get how people can think this guy

and this guy

look ANYTHING alike, besides the fact that they're two young, white guys with brown hair and blue eyes.

i even tried to find pictures that are kind of similar and they STILL dont look alike to me, not even brother status.

anywho, gyllenhaal for the next.

 

[waylayer]

This franchise should be as series ala James Bond (Casino Royale reboot aside, but we'll see where we are in 2042). They should maintain a loose continuity with the stories over time (but a continuity nonetheless). Perhaps have 3-5 films with the same cast, with a new movie every 2-3 years. Spider-Man has so many good villains that you could have a franchise go for 15 years easily before thinking about recycling villains, as long as they're not all killed off, or used 2-3 in a film like in Spider-Man 3.

 

[DACrowe]

Yes make it like the Bond series where it is all episodic and there is no storyline continuity but simply a formulaic bore with a the cliches and churn them out enough you ensure at least half are crap. Great! And I'm a Bond fan.

I think Gylenhaal would be good and Topher woudl've been great but no name will take it now. It is associated with Maguire, so it will likely og to an unknown, same with the director too then.

 

[Justice Bringer]

Gylenhaal looks like a bizzaro mutant version of Tobey. I'd rather we avoid Jake and go with a lesser known with a known supporting cast

 

[Mr. Socko]

Gylenhaal is too old to be restarting as Parker. And he's a pretty known name.

 

[XXTBWCXX]

They need to go with something that, to an extent, looks like Tobey Maguire, but not too closely...with Spider-Man 4, they could move the years, like, 3-4 years after Spider-Man 3, where this Peter looks older, so they can have the new person to not look exactly like Tobey...but, then, don't have him look completely different than him...and get someone that has the same body type too...

And why on the first page, did people put in pics of guys shirtless? That's not really needed, lol.

 

[blind_fury]

They should be looking for someone who looks like Peter Parker from the comics, not a Tobey Maguire clone.

 

[Justice Bringer]

There has to be some resemblence with Tobey for a better sense of continuity.

The Bond films arent a good example since each is in a very vague sequel with the next.

Spiderman 4 should be a direct sequel.

 

[blind_fury]

Val Kilmer looked nothing like Micheal Keaton, but audiences didn't really care. Batman Forever made twice as much as Batman Returns.


They should re-cast the whole movie and restart the franchise in 7 years using different villains. Movie goers will be hungry for a new Spider-man movie by then.

 

[Mr. Socko]

Good idea but fanboys like us will be in an uproar but most importantly, recast after that trilogy? They can't keep restarting after every 3 films. But since Toby and Raimi are for sure to be gone, a restart in a few years or distant sequel would work best.

 

[The Only Woj]

Clooney/Kilmer/Keaton didn't share much in terms of look. Again, we'll have to see who the new name actors are in 3 or 4 years. Gyllenhaal might be interested (he was during the Spider-Man 2 situation; though I wouldn't mind him taking over for Bale after that trilogy ends). actors come and go, might be someone we've never heard of in all the lead roles and even directing. but they better keep what's his name that's Jameson. he's too perfect.
