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.

    • I'll say 6. I don't know that we learned a whole lot about this team during preseason that we didn't already know. We didn't play the starters enough to really get a feel for what to expect. We had one good drive against the Browns, one 3-and-out and two 3-and-outs against the Texans. That's an extremely small sample size across 3 games regardless of performance. My camp/preseason takeaways: Jalen Coker might be the best WR on this team and is certainly no worse than #2. Nic Scourton is going to be a good player for us. Possibly very good. Bobby Brown was our best free agent addition and will do more to help the defense than anyone. Jack Plummer isn't an NFL QB. Not even a practice squad guy. Having anyone other than Canales and Evero call plays was a really stupid and pointless idea. Our depth is largely non-existent, especially on defense. The three areas we actually DO have depth are on the OL, in the WR corp. and at RB. I can't fathom why Dan Morgan didn't do more to upgrade ILB during the offseason. We better hope Lathan Ransom steps up at FS because if he doesn't we have a massive hole there. For all the hype surrounding Sanders and Evans, Tommy Tremble is still the best TE on the roster. I'm only slightly less enthusiastic going into the regular season than I was a month ago. I think our starters on offense are solid and we should be pretty good there unless Bryce totally regresses. On defense, we're probably bottom 3rd in the league if 100% healthy and significantly worse than that if injuries become an issue. We badly need at least two of our rookies to become high-level players early (ideally one of the pass rushers + Ransom) and at least 2 of our free agent additions (ideally Moehrig + Bobby Brown) to be significant upgrades over last year. Call me pessimistically optimistic 😆
    • 2010 was worse. Not much worse but worse. 
    • Lol since 2017 the Panthers are 47-85,    Also since 2017 the Giants are 40-91-1   Lol
