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.

      ESPN's Barnwell Early Offseason Grades

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46683459/2025-nfl-offseason-tiers-32-teams-best-worst-signings-trades-draft-barnwell Slightly above expectations Highlights: Trading WR Adam Thielen, signing RB Rico Dowdle (one year, $2.8 million), drafting fifth-round TE Mitchell Evans   Disappointments: Re-signing CB Mike Jackson (two years, $10.5 million)   The Panthers chose the right time to move on from Thielen, who had been productive in Carolina before being dealt to Minnesota just before the season. He has been lost in the shuffle there. While the Panthers won't see the fourth-round pick that forms the bulk of the return for Thielen until 2027, getting out from what was owed to a player who has 47 receiving yards in Minnesota is an easy victory. Dowdle has been a revelation since moving into the starting lineup after Chuba Hubbard's injury, becoming one of a handful of players in NFL history to produce consecutive 200-yard scrimmage games. The former Cowboys back was averaging 3 yards per carry before the opportunity, so I'm not sure I would count on him playing like Jim Brown the rest of the way in a rotational role alongside Hubbard. But it's hard to argue that Carolina hasn't already gotten its $2.8 million worth out of the 27-year-old back. Most of Carolina's biggest moves are either tracking to be right around expectation (drafting wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan) or have been impacted by unexpected injuries (signing defensive tackle Tershawn Wharton). Jackson was a pleasant surprise as a starter in 2024, and he hasn't been terrible this season, but most of the big plays against Carolina have come on throws against the former Seahawks cornerback. Overall, though, this has been a very reasonable offseason for the Panthers

      How would you have taken the guy who was picked ahead of us? That makes no sense.

      I am not denying that things were said. That wasn’t my point. But carry on this will go nowhere.    Oh snap, the post calling him a liar was like three posts before you jumped in.  what do you get, a post a page?
