Agreed wholeheartedly, this is the decade of sequel/remake/reboot and i'm tired of it. However it is the new trend and it will stay for a while. Onto the topic, I would careless for another Spiderman.

Wow....Marvel apparently pulled a Captain America. It looks like there could be official word that Josh Hutcherson (JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH) may end up getting the role of Spider-Man/Peter Parker.

Dark Horizons:
Finally today, Blue Sky Disney is claiming that Sony Pictures executives and director Marc Webb have decided on Josh Hutcherson as the new Peter Parker for their upcoming "Spider-Man" reboot.

An offer was apparently made and has been accepted by the actor who won the role after several extensive test shoots.

IT IS OFFICIAL!!!

Andrew Garfield is the new Spider-Man. Marc Webb made the announcement today at a press conference. The 26-year old US/UK citizen won the role.

I don't know if I like him for the part of Peter Parker really don't remember anything he has been in. Just by his appearance, but hey I could be wrong!

I think Marvel's films suck for the most part, but I would love to see someone make a good daredevil film. Do we really need another retelling of Spiderman.

It's only happening because the producers wanted to do a 4th film that would continue the series, but they couldn't gather a good enough story. Therefore, Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire left and producers decided to use James Vanderbilt's original script for the 2002 version (apparently more darker in tone) only we now learn that because of Garfield's age, the story will be set in college instead of high school.

She is a good pick for that role. I'm not sold on this Garfield dude though. He doesn't favor Peter Parker IMPO. Guess we'll see what happens.
