Haven't seen him in anything before, but I love his energy and enthusiasm for the role in that video.

I've always like the high school student Spider-Man and in the context of the rest of the MCU that could be a really cool dynamic.

Yeah, I like how Marvel apparently wants to keep Peter in high school for a while. The teenage hero is something new to the MCU. He's the young, inexperienced kid who will be in over-his-head in the Avengers movies, and that's a nice dynamic to have.

It's why I like that they went with Lang for Ant-Man. He's a single dad, and a thief. We don't have a character like that in the MCU. Pym would have been another scientist/superhero. Guys like Lang (single dad, thief, superhero) and Peter Parker (high school kid, superhero) are great additions to the MCU.

Pounder · 03-02-2015, 07:01 PM

He seems to really love the character. That's always a plus in my book.

MechaGodzilla · 03-02-2015, 07:04 PM

I haven't seen him in anything, but he looks right for the role, is the right age (he's young enough that he'll be able to continue playing the character for at least a decade, if he's interested and they want him to keep going for that long) and he seems to have the right level of interest and enthusiasm. Also interesting that the plan is apparently to start out with Peter Parker, use him for several movies, and then go with Miles Morales afterwards.

Goldensuitcase · 03-02-2015, 07:05 PM

This is the kid I was hoping would play. I actually watch the TEEN WOLF series and have seen Maze Runner, and he definitely has a very likeable persona that comes across the screen quite easily. Solid choice if true.

Never seen O'Brien in anything, but he looks the part and loves the character. I'm all for this, he looks like he'd do great in the part.

Mandalorian · 03-02-2015, 07:18 PM

I've only seen him in The Maze Runner, and he was one of the better things about it. Good casting, in my book.

Totes_Magotes12 · 03-02-2015, 07:20 PM

If they're going more comedic, then hopefully they go after Lord and Miller

EXCLUSIVE: Drew Goddard Writing and Directing Marvel And Sony's 'Spider-Man'

Kellvin here! Your friendly neighborhood website has been working on this scoop for a few weeks and its sure to get the inter-webs going crazy. This scoop is something that I personally have been working on and kept under wraps even amongst the rest of the writers of the site. So this news is breaking not just to you, our loyal readers, but also to our entire writing staff.

Ever since the Sony hack has taken place my sources have been careful not to use email, so this last week I had a face to face meeting with my contact, Senor Fenix and does here is what he tells us about the upcoming solo Spider-Man film.

Quote:

Senor Fenix here boys and girls with the latest news on Spider-Man at Sony.

There has been much reported on and some news neglected in recent weeks. Kevin Feige and the Marvel team will be producing the new series at Sony in what is envisioned as a three part series to come out over consecutive summers. There is talk about calling the series SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN after yet another Marvel comics series ala the last films being called “Amazing.”

Feige was allowed to join the process only after Ike Perlmutter, Feige’s boss and the man behind the curtain, insisted that former partner and one time friend Avi Arad be removed from the film series. Since Sony had installed Arad as a courtesy back in 2000 it was an easy removal legally. But since former Sony Studio head Amy Pascal made herself a producer on the film on the way out the door, I understand there was a lot of acrimony when Amy informed Avi he was out. Arad will receive an EP credit on the film and instead focus on making a feature out of GHOST IN THE SHELL without any Asian actors.

I understand that Avi’s partner on the recent less-than-stellar reboot Matt Tolmach was so shocked when Pascal (his close friend) informed him she was in and he was out he is now wandering the Sony lot dazed, like after a headbutt from the Rhino.

So the thinking at the moment is that Sony will faze out all the Spidey Verse films they were developing. Yes even the Aunt May film (that was real!) and focus on a story involving Spidey versus the Sinister Six. At one point they were developing a film that was just going to be a spinoff called THE SINISTER SIX. That’s scrapped but the big news is that the director of that film, Drew Goddard, will write AND direct the Spectacular Spider Man movie.

Key things to look for in the new series:

No new origin story, Spidey exists from the beginning, taken as a given
New actor, probably an unknown, he will be specifically based in High School and they want him to be able to grow up into the role. The thought being if this works, Spidey can do multiple trilogies for years ala Harry Potter.
A major part of the first film will involve Spider- Man fighting Iron Man and then trying to pass the “audition” to join the Avengers
The first film will involved the Sinister Six coming together with the thought to later maybe spin them off.

I know the brave Reddit Warriors are talking about Dylan O’Brien but of the guy is 23 and already in a series, I doubt he’s the guy- and in fact casting will not begin for a number of months yet while Sony and Marvel cross the t’s.

One thing is for certain- the Supreme Leader of North Korea will NOT cameo in the new series.

So there you have it. Drew Goddard will not only direct the new Spider-Man film but he will also write it, which I think is a good choice. What do you guys think?

If it does turn out to be Dylan O'Brien, I'm on board with that casting decision. He was great in The Maze Runner. Much more of a likable personality than Andrew Garfield.

Do it, Sony!

DisneyBlu · 03-02-2015, 07:30 PM

All this talk, I feel/hope an official announcement is soon. Very excited to find out exactly what's going on with Spidey.

seannyd · 03-02-2015, 07:34 PM

Interesting. But sadly, I'm more inclined to believe "Random Reddit User" than Latino Review these days. I guess we'll see how this plays out.

Frankly, I don't know how they can wait a few more months to cast Spider-Man if he's going to be showing up in Civil War. That starts filming next month and if Spider-Man shows up at all, he'd need a new costume fitted to the actor and I imagine that's not a quick process. Unless it's just a quick cameo I suppose.

Walts Ghost · 03-02-2015, 07:35 PM

The idea of having Downey, Jr. as Stark in the film is really exciting as well, helping really bridge this all together. So very excited.

Is there anything MCU-related that doesn't excite or please you, Walt?

Honestly? Right now, no. I like the movies. No shame in it.

Latino Review just got bought by a major company because their content has been so good lately...And their scoops have been on par a lot lately. So, I'd trust them. Especially with BAD backing them over the last few months as well.

Is there any film they won't stick Stark in? I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't in Guardians 2. Surprised they didn't work him into the first one.

Again, this just tells me they're a little worried the new Spidey won't be good enough so they're including Stark to seal the deal.
