SPIDERMAN will have someone else in the net, following confirmation that actor Tobey Maguire and director Sam Raimi have been dumped from Spider-Man 4.
The axing comes after director Sam Raimi told the studio he couldn’t make a planned May-2011 release date.
Sony will now reboot the franchise, with a new director and cast and a new script that puts the superhero in high school.
Will you watch Spider-Man 4, with a new hero in the webbed suit? Have your say below.
The new Spider-Man 4 won’t be released until mid-2012.
Rumours suggest that the movie could be shot in 3-D after the spectacular success of Avatar.
“Working on the Spider-Man movies was the experience of a lifetime for me. While we were looking forward to doing a fourth one together, the studio and Marvel have a unique opportunity to take the franchise in a new direction,” Raimi, who directed all three instalments of the Spider-Man franchise, said.
