The new Spider Man has been chosen

News from what I'd consider a reliable source: Marvel.com

Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios are proud to announce that after a full worldwide casting search, Tom Holland will play Peter Parker/Spider-Man in the next Spider-Man film, in theaters in IMAX and 3D on July 28, 2017.  The film will be directed by Jon Watts, director of "Cop Car," the upcoming thriller that made its debut earlier this year at the Sundance Film Festival.

His IMDb page: Tom Holland

He's 19 years old, and British.

Technically he's only the third, and Andrew Garfield was awful.

I saw something a short time ago claiming the kid from "Ender's Game" had the role, but it didn't seem legit.

Garfield was the only part of those movies that was worth watching... he was a great spider-man

Do we really need another Spiderman?  

yes... now that sony and marvel have worked out their deal and spidey will be a part of the MCU, this reboot actually makes sense

Can't agree.  Garfield was just as bad as those movies were.

 

I pretend Spider-man 1 & 2 exist.  Then there's like three other movies about a spider-like vigilante.  

Just to clarify, which "1 and 2" do you mean?

I'm gonna assume you mean the rebooted 1 and 2 because Sam Raimi's Spider Man 2 was one of the best superhero movies made (especially Al Molina's take on Doctor Octopus).

there were rumors going around a few months ago (around the time of the Sony hacks, I believe) that JK Simmons was being mentioned again for the JJJ role... he was absolutely too perfect for the role

I also read a while back that Sony was hoping to make this some kind of Sony multi-verse... since they still own Spider-Man and all the related rights and will still be making their own standalone films (just with Marvel input), they're going to look at the original trilogy as one universe, Garfield films as another and this new batch of films that are tied into the MCU into another

essentially, this would allow them to make films across several different universes/timelines and build off of the good from some and forget the bad from others.  who knows if that will really happen... it could have just been ideas being tossed around at Sony, but it's an interesting idea (and would allow them to also introduce Miles Morales and Miguel O'Hara, etc)

When I say 1 & 2, I'm talking about Raimi.  I pretend they're the only ones that were made haha.  The non-Spiderman 3 I'm referring to are S3 and TAS1&2.  Raimi's 2nd flick is the best of the bunch.

    • Yeah but jumping up in the draft to get a project #2/3 WR is just plain not smart. I am down on XL because the thought was that he could be a potential #1 WR and he has been anything but that so far. Also, the idea of him as a slot is even more upsetting because you pass on several more productive slot guys(McConkey being the most obvious) that were TREMENDOUSLY more NFL ready. I was not a fan of the XL move at the time and I am not a fan of the decision in short term hindsight either. He is just simply going to have to be a guy that proves it on the field to me. McMillian was my #1 WR in this draft and I was a pro-McMillian guy. However, he isn't gonna get treated with baby gloves either. We are in the era of rookie WR's putting up 1k+ yd seasons with regularity. He's going to(barring injury) have to be one of the top 2 or 3 WR's in this class in terms of production. And that's being very generous to him. He really needs to be THE guy from this class. It isn't like he is gonna have a lot of guys taking catches away from him.
    • Thought this was an interesting moment of candor. See the 2:00 min mark. TD said he made the decision that he wanted T-Mac as our 1st round pick back in January. Dan chimed in and said he made the decision early as well (indicating the same time frame).
