Spider-Man Officially Joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe

It's about time

 

No more emo spiderman. Thank god. The only thing good about the spiderman franchise was Emma Stone.

 

Ok this is really exciting. Wondering who they will cast as Peter Parker

 

Michael B Jordan of course.


I am pretty sure he starred in My Life also.

 

Michael Jordan from Space Jam is gonna be Spiderman?

 

They should go with a black spidey, maybe Jay Pharaoh or Donald Glover.

 

spiderman reboot 3

 

Marvel is reportedly interested in Logan Lerman(aka The Wallflower and Percy Jackson). I'm not sure about him. He's a good actor, but I get too much of a Tobey Maguire vibe from him. A short, skinny, nerdy-looking dude. I actually really liked Andrew Garfield's performance. Too bad the second Amazing Spider-Man movie stunk so bad, it killed any chance he'd be able to return to the role(although I am glad the character wound up in the MCU).

 

Don't be surprise if they cast a girl for spiderman

 

Logan Lerman would be the best choice imo

 

yeah and Hermonie as Mary Jane or Snoop Dog

 

Spoiler

 

Please no reboot with another origin. Maybe do a flashback with comic book theme to establish continuity.

 

Nice, at this stage in the game I didn't think they'd get a deal done for Civil War (which is obviously going to be his first appearance).

I'm a little concerned that Sony still has final say on creative decisions. Hopefully that just means Marvel will do all the work then they just smile, nod, and sign off on their suggestions.

I hope they just stick with Garfield, he isn't the problem. If not, at least consider Donald Glover. (they won't, and...they won't)

Yeah, I was upset about this also. Now Inhumans will be after both Infinity War movies? Uh? I guess they're just going to hope that revealing them in Agents of Shield, and sprinkling them throughout other MCU movies will be enough information leading up to Infinity War.

 

Nice! It was such an obvious thing for Sony to do that I thought it wouldn't happen, so I'm happy to see this.

And if they want an older Spidey... how 'bout a 40+ year old Tobey Maguire?

 

An old Spider-Man. That's interesting. I'm thinking Steve Buscemi and the story is that Peter Parker became a drunk and time hasn't been good to him. Maybe even make him the villain.

 

I really hope it is an older Spiderman, the young one is annoying. The older Spiderman is attached to Mary Jane, he's more mature, has more to lose - I think it carries a lot more weight if a 30+ Spiderman joins Iron Man's side in Civil War as opposed to an immature teenager that is still discovering his place as a superhero.

Actually, if they use a young Spiderman in Civil War I'd venture to say Spiderman's involvement in the entire storyline will fall flat on its face.

Not a fan of Tobey Maguire but I do hope they bring back J.K. Simmons.

Are there any more details about how the license will be used? Sony gets veto power/input or will they be inserting their own directors/casting/etc? It seems like Marvel can use the character a bit but Sony still has them by the balls. Kind of a scary situation.
