They say the chances are slim. Although considering Marvel was recently bought out by Disney, the possibility is definetly real. (shudders)

There are tons of actors rumored to be in the role of spiderman 4. There's really no telling who will actually be the star though. Although Zac Efron is a charismatic and good looking young guy, he's a rather poor actor, and if he got the role I'm sure the movie would suck.

I didn't pay to see the second or third, so why would I pay to see this one?

Of course. Anything else would be ridiculous. This Spider-Man reboot is seriously one of the stupidest things I have ever heard.

Sony owns the rights to Spiderman, so Disney has nothing to do with it

The article says he is being considered. Since they are doing a reboot and basing Parker in Highschool anyone who can play a HS student will be considered.

It woul be funny for Spidey to break out in song and dance though

Spiderman 4 was cancelled. They're going to reboot the entire series. Why would they do this? I don't know.

I was... really worried for a minute. Thank God it isn't going to happen... The only way the series could possibly go downhill after Spiderman 3 is making Zach Efron Peter Parker.

I don't care who plays the next Spider-Man... because there doesn't need to be a new Spider-Man. You reboot a series when it's like 25 years old. Toby Spider-Man isn't even a decade...

Jfisch93

Think of it this way...Sam Raimi was still willing to do Spider-Man 4, even though number 3 was total ass.

Also, it's likely that a large part of SM 3's problems (not ALL Raimi still did the movie) were at least partially due to studio interference.

So...Sam Raimi is talking with Sony people, and they want to speed up production on SM4 in order to make their projected release date. Raimi says no. Because the script sucks and he needs more time.

Apparently, that's a dealbreaker. SM4 needs to be out by the projected date, even though the script sucks and doing so will cause the director and cast to walk.

So...goodbye director and cast. What now? GRITTY REBOOT! Let's hire people quick! Whoever we need who's willing to churn out **** fast in order to meet our timetable!

And that's why Spider-Man 4 (or Spider-Man Reboot) is going to suck. It's not that they WANT SM4 to be worse than SM3. They just don't care. Because Spider-Man 3 made an ASSLOAD of money (even though it was ****), and they figure that that means people will watch any **** as long as it has Spider-Man.

Remember Batman 4 (aka Batman and Robin)? Well, I'm predicting Spider-Man 4 to be justa little bit better.

wat Spiderman series isn't even that old of a series to be remade. It's no Batman or Star Trek. Seems pretty odd to remake. Having said that, he can't be that much worse than Tobey Maguire. I can never tell if he's purposely being awkward or he just can't do any better.

Peter Parker is supposed to be geeky and awkward. I really like Tobey in those movies.

Zac is not a poor actor by any means, contrary to popular opinion here. Period!

But I agree that SpiderMan 4 is unnecessary

I'll agree but I don't see him fitting the Spiderman persona, Toby did it great, but Zac Efron I can't see being Spiderman...
