"Spider-Man 4" A Go

All you Spidey fans can once again get ready to dust off your homemade Spider-Man suits, a fourth Spidey picture has been announced. Director Sam Raimi will be on board for the third time, along with Tobey Maguire. The script will be written by Zodiac scribe Jamie Vanderbilt. It's also been announced that the script plans to be big enough for two films (much like Spider-Man 3 was), therefore leading to serious consideration about filming a fourth and fifth Spider-Man film back to back. The film is slated for a 2011 release, with principal photography to begin in 2009. As far as villains and characters will go, everyone involved is keeping a tight lid on it. Rumors that date back to when Spider-Man 3 was in the works involve Bruce Campbell (who's made cameos in all the Spider-Man movies) getting a bigger role, and playing Mysterio. I, for one, would like to see that. Campbell is a good actor. Recent rumors include having Dr. Curt Connors in a bigger role. In the comics, he becomes The Lizard. Fan-made trailers for Spider-Man 4 have been popping up all over YouTube, some of which contain The Lizard and Carnage (the out-of-control opposite of Venom). Only time will tell as the film will prepare to get under way.

Until next time, I'll be seeing you...at the movies.
