AMAZING SPIDER-MAN AFTER-CREDITS SCENE Man in the shadow: “Hello, Doctor, did you tell the boy?” Dr Curt Connors: “Tell him what?” Man in the shadow: “Did you tell the boy the truth about his father?” Dr Curt Connors: “No.” Man in the shadow: “Well, that’s very good, so we’ll let him be for now.” Dr Curt Connors: “You should leave him alone!”
So who’s the man in the shadow? The actor has been identified as Michael Massee, he usually plays evil guys in TV series. But what about the character he’s playing? Could have been Norman Osborn, but Actor Rhys Ifans said it wasn’t him. Oscorp employee David Patrick Lowell then? Or the Chameleon? Anyway I guess we’ll learn more in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. :)

Stay tuned with us for more details about the Amazing Spider-Man! :)
Denis Leary plays the role of Captain George Stacy, the father of Gwen Stacy (played by Emma Stone) who’s the first love of Peter Parker (Spider-Man, played by Andrew Garfield).
Here’s a picture of Captain George Stacy as in the comic book:
Denis Leary looks a bit younger than the comic book character. :)
Here’s a first look at Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy in the upcoming Spiderman movie (can’t really call it Spiderman 4 since it’s a reboot of the franchise):
The film is directed by Marc Webb and is Actor Andrew Garfield got the lead role as Peter Parker aka Spider-Man. The film is also starring Rhys Ifans, Martin Sheen, Denis Leary, Campbell Scott, Julianne Nicholson, Irrfan Khan, and Annie Parisse. :)
According to The Wrap, Rhys Ifans, who’s been announced as the lead villain in the upcoming Spider-Man movie, will play the role of Dr Curt Connors aka the Lizard.
Sony has announced that Actor Rhys Ifans has been hired to play the role of the villain in the upcoming movie reboot of Spiderman. Unfortunately they haven’t revealed what villain yet…
“What sets the Spider-Man villains apart is the complexity of their relationships with Peter Parker. Rhys’ incredible ability to embody both warmth and rage makes him the ideal choice for this character.”
Director Marc Webb
Rhys Ifans will play opposite Andrew Garfield who’s got the lead role as Peter Parker aka Spiderman. :)
Sony and Marvel have announced that Actor Andrew Garfield has been hired to play the role of Peter Parker aka Spiderman in the upcoming Spiderman reboot movie:
Update – first official look at Andrew Garfield as Spiderman:
“Spider-Man is a classic superhero — a young man who balances his responsibility to serve humanity and crush evil with the shyness and normalcy of someone struggling to find himself. The role demands an extraordinary actor. You need someone who can magically transform himself from Peter Parker into Spider-Man. An actor who will depict the vulnerability of youth and the strength and confidence of a legendary figure at the same moment. We have found that actor in Andrew Garfield. From the first time we saw him in the upcoming film The Social Network, to his glorious screen test, which floored all of us, we knew that we had found our new Peter Parker.”
Matt Tolmach, President of Columbia Pictures
“Though his name may be new to many, those who know this young actor’s work understand his extraordinary talents. He has a rare combination of intelligence, wit, and humanity. Mark my words, you will love Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker.”
Director Marc Webb
I did like Andrew Garfield’s performance in the movie Boy A. I’m a bit sad that Tobey Maguire won’t reprise his role, but I’m confident that Andrew Garfield will be great in the new Spiderman movie. :)
“At its core, Spider-Man is a small, intimate human story about an everyday teenager that takes place in an epic super-human world. The key for us as we sought a new director was to identify filmmakers who could give sharp focus to Peter Parker’s life. We wanted someone who could capture the awe of being in Peter’s shoes so the audience could experience his sense of discovery while giving real heart to the emotion, anxiety, and recklessness of that age and coupling all of that with the adrenaline of Spider-Man’s adventure. We believe Marc Webb is the perfect choice to bring us on that journey.”
Amy Pascal, co-chairman of Sony Pictures Entertainment, and Matt Tolmach, president of Columbia Pictures
Well Webb’s got a fitting name for the job, and he seems enthusiast:
“This is a dream come true and I couldn’t be more aware of the challenge, responsibility, or opportunity. Sam Raimi’s virtuoso rendering of Spider-Man is a humbling precedent to follow and build upon. The first three films are beloved for good reason. But I think the Spider-Man mythology transcends not only generations but directors as well. I am signing on not to ‘take over’ from Sam. That would be impossible. Not to mention arrogant. I’m here because there’s an opportunity for ideas, stories, and histories that will add a new dimension, canvas, and creative voice to Spider-Man.”
Director Marc Webb
Besides Stan Lee agrees with the choice:
“I’m excited that Sony has chosen a director with a real penchant and understanding for the character. This is a brave, bold direction for the franchise, and I can’t wait to see what Marc comes up with next.”
Stan Lee, co-creator of Spider Man
Still hard to share Kevin Feige’s optimism though:
“The idea of re-imagining the on-screen story for one of the world’s most iconic superheros is sure to deliver an exciting new dimension to Spider-Man fans everywhere. There are volumes of comics and material available to inspire fresh and compelling takes on Peter Parker and his journey as Spidey and we look forward to seeing this come alive onscreen.”
Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige
Anyway let’s hope that Screentwriter James Vanderbilt did manage to come up with a great script for this reboot of Spiderman. :/
In a surprising movie Sony has announced that they’re going to reboot the Spiderman movie Franchise and that Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire won’t be on board!
According to the rumor the movie Spiderman 4 blew up because because Director Sam Raimi and Sony were at odds over what villain should show up in the new Spiderman movie ad because Sony is helbent on going 3D while Raimi wasn’t much enthusiast about the new technology…
Well, I don’t care if Sam Raimi is fired and I won’t cry over Sony replacing Tobey Maguire, but rebooting the franchise? Seriously? Don’t want to see the origins of Spiderman again… Even in 3D… Or they need to deliver a really awesome plot! But there is some hope: I heard that the script for the Spiderman reboot has been written by James Vanderbilt (they’re going to use a back-up script written some time ago).
More information about the Spiderman reboot movie soon! :/
According to variety James Vanderbilt has been hired by Sony Pictures to pen the screenplay of Spiderman 5 and Spiderman 6!
But as far as I know the script for Spiderman 4 isn’t even ready yet… Or maybe they’ve got a first draft and are damn confident that it’s gonna be a hit? Nope, more probably, the just want to cash in on a successful franchise: Spiderman is like a goose laying golden eggs I guess.
Let’s hope they would film Spider-man 5 and Spider-Man 6 back-to-back so we wouldn’t have to wait too long between the two movies. :)
A Spiderman 4 movie is scheduled to be released in May 2011. Thanks to AICN You may take a look to the first teaser poster of this new Spiderman movie here below: (Click on the poster to enlarge it.)
SPIDERMAN 4
May 6, 2011
No real clue yet about what villains will show off in Spiderman 4. Director Sam Raimi has been hinting at the vampire Morbius as a possible contender while Stan Lee said that the Lizzard would be a logic choice.
Raimi also acknowledges that there were too many villains in the third opus, so I guess that Spiderman won’t have more than 2 main nemesis in the fourth movie.
I’d be fine with both Morbius and the Lizzard in Spiderman 4. What about you? What villain would you rather see in the movie Spiderman 4? ;-P
Director Sam Raimi has been talking about Spiderman 4 in an interview given to MTV (here), and here the most interesting tidbit:
“We’re definitely talking about working from all the material in the comic books and nothing [invented] outside of that, ‘Raimi continued. ‘All the characters or villain or villains, whatever we decide to do will be from Stan Lee’s creations or those that came after him.”
Sam Raimi
So they dugg into the precious history of Spider-Man comic books in order to select the right villain(s) for Spiderman 4. Well, I’m quite sure that the Lizard will finally get his part, even Stan Lee wants the Lizard in Spiderman 4! And if Sony and Sam Raimi insist to bring in one more villain, my bet would be on Morbius the living vampire.
By the way, Spiderman 4 is scheduled to be released on May 6, 2011. Tobey Maguire will of course reprise his role as Peter Parker aka Spiderman, and Kirsten Dunst is more than likely to be proposed her role back (the old Sam Raimi has indeed a crush on her). :)
Stan Lee talks about who could be the potential next villain in Spiderman 4. Watch this nice video interview of Stan Lee, the creator of Spider-Man at:
Let’s hope the new Lizard will look better than in the 1960’s animated cartoon:
Spiderman – Where Crawls the Lizard
Reports of a lizard-man terrorizing the Everglades bring Spiderman to Florida, where he finds that a Doctor Conner, by testing a swamp fever serum upon himself, has changed into an intelligent lizard.
So impatient to have more details about Spiderman 4! :)
