The Dark Knight In Final Talks To Join The MCU Spider-Man Reboot?

Just a few weeks ago it was rumoured that 1989's Batman himself, Michael Keaton, was in talks to play the lead villain role in the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe reboot of Spider-Man, titled Spider-Man: Homecoming. After that news got out, the rumour was put to sleep and nothing came out about it. Some said the negotiations fell through.......UNTIL NOW!!!
Today, word has got out that Mr Keaton, star of the critically acclaimed film, Birdman, is said to be in final talks to playing the main villain, wether it be The Vulture, as previously speculated OR......the MCU version of Norman Osborn, who will, as we all know, will at some point transform into The Green Goblin. The character of Vulture was on the cards as a main villain waaaaaaay back when Sam Raimi was in charge of the Spidey franchise. He wanted him as the lead villain for Spider-Man 4 and was to be played by the great John Malkovich.
The Vulture is an interesting character, as long as he's done right and not just a version of The Green Goblin, with wings. This, I am looking forward to.

Sony Confirm Third And Fourth "Amazing Spiderman" Films!

Sony have confirmed that Spiderman will indeed return in a third and fourth film in "The Amazing Spiderman" franchise. "The Amazing Spiderman 3" will be released on June 16th 2016 and "The Amazing Spiderman 4" will be released on May 4th 2018.
It's not been confirmed if either director Marc Webb or actor Andrew Garfield will return at all but it's expected that Garfield will indeed return as Spiderman himself. I have a funny feeling that Sony will also confirm a 5th and 6th film too at some point in the next few years.

"Southland" Actor Cast In "Spider-Man 2.0"

"The Hitcher" and "Southland" star, C. Thomas Howell is the latest actor to join the cast of "Spider-Man 2.0". He publically announced this on his Facebook page earlier today. Though he never gave the name of the character that he'll be playing. He never even teased who he's playing.

Stan Lee Gets Cameo Role In "Spider-Man 2.0"

Stan Lee has had a cameo in most of the big-screen adaptions of Marvel comic characters. Everyone knew this would happen. It's not been announced which cameo role he will have in Marc Webb's upcoming 2012 reboot. All Stan Lee could tell fans is that he's in an action scene. AWESOME!

Spidey's Suit To Get An Upgrade For "Spider-Man 2.0"

Obviously this was gonna happen. Andrew Garfield will be wearing a completely different suit in "Spider-Man 2.0" (that's what the reboot's being called right now), than what original Spidey, Tobey McGuire wore in Sam Raimi's Spidey trilogy.
According to a movie-insider, the new suit is completely skin tight. Garfield's wore the new suit in dress rehersals, but the crotch area keeps having to be fixed, as it's showing too much when the actor turns to the side and stands sideways. Now it's quite hard not to show anything in a skin tight suit. My friend was Spider-Man for Halloween and his suit was literally skin tight and you could see his penis. They may just have to end up CGIing Garfield's penis out.
I just can't wait to see this suit. There will most likely be some leaked pics hitting the net soon, as filming begins in a few weeks.
