Casting Spider-Man's 2017 Solo Film

Casting Spider-Man's 2017 Solo Film

Casting the characters that I hope will appear in Spider-Man's 2017 solo film.

Alright, now that Spider-Man is set to appear in Captain America: Civil War and get his own solo film on July 28, 2017, I felt that I should just put out my suggestions for the cast. Now, for starters, I actually think that the film title should be either:



Or: 


Eh? Marvel's The Spectacular Spider-Man or Marvel's Avenging Spider-Man? Which do you think is better?

Moving on, starting with who's already been cast:

Tom Holland as Peter Parker/Spider-Man



Marisa Tomei as Aunt May

And now, on to my fan cast:

Bruce Greenwood as Uncle Ben




George Clooney as Richard Parker

Julianne Nicholson as Mary Parker



Gracie Dzienny as Gwen Stacy


Odeya Rush as Mary Jane Watson


Alex Ferris as Harry Osborn


Gabriel Basso as Eugene "Flash" Thompson


Noah Gray-Cabey as Randy Robertson


Noah Munck as Kenny "Kong" MacFarlane


Stephanie Scott as Liz Allan


Hailee Steinfeld as Sally Avril


Mark Harmon as Captain George Stacy


Cote de Pablo as Jean DeWolff


 Hugh Laurie as J. Jonah Jameson


Michael Ealy as Joseph "Robbie" Robertson


Alexis Bledel as Betty Brant


Matthew McConaughey as Norman Osborn


Julie Benz as Emily Osborn


Joaquin Phoenix as Quentin Beck/Mysterio


Jesse Plemons as Herman Schultz/Shocker

 

The film should start on the very last day of summer. I'm going to assume that Civil War is going to take place in the summer, so when we first get to see Spider-Man, we can get a scene like the the opening scene from the first episode of the Spectacular Spider-Man animated series. So, he's been Spider-Man for a few months, and it should take off from there. Maybe have some future villains cameo as just crooks he stops, like Flint Marko or Alex O'Hirn.

UPDATE: I changed my choice for Mary Jane. I personally think that Odeya Rush would be a better choice.

These are some actually pretty good picks!
However don't agree with your Mary Jane. Ariel Winter or Bella Thorne would be perfect

I really love most of these choices!
I think Hailee Steinfeld is too talented to waste on such a side character like that.

Perfect choices for Uncle Ben and Peter's parents.
Can't say I've seen enough of Odeya Rush to justify her as MJ, but she looks great.

Odeya Rush... Dude I love you so much, this is like one of the best casts I've seen in a long time

I really hope that they don't go right to the Peter's parents in the reboot, they so over did it in TASM, and yes I know that they could now be SHIELD agents, big whoop.
I also really hope that we get a proper Black Cat in this franchises.

@PesciGotPepsi
Thanks! And yeah, I had to rethink my Mary Jane choice.

Wow this is a fantastic fan cast for the spiderman reboot. Which is especially impressive because its hard to find actors young enough, so hat's off to you.

My one gripe, like was said above is that Colin Ford is super slender, and doesn't have that intimidating feel of flash thompson.

I hate to be the guy to do this, because I find it obnoxious when people make their own suggestions/substitutions on a fan cast but, what about Gabriel Basso from Kings of Summer as Flash?

He's big, intimidating, a good actor, and only about a year older than Holland

Still though, outstanding cast! Well done.

Thank you, and I'll admit, you've got a point.

The thing with Peter's parents, I want it to be a thing, but not like a major, major thing. Nick Fury could mention that he knew his parents, or even Black Widow and Hawkeye could say that they'd heard stories about them at Budapest. Something along the lines of that.

And as for Black Cat, I've got a few choices for her...

@RedRobinDC
Yeah, you've got a point about Colin Ford.

@breakneckbeck
Huh. He was my first choice for Kong. But yeah, you're right, Colin is pretty slim. Yeah, I'll change that. And thank you!

I checked out both of your new Fancasts. I really liked this one as there are a lot of Unique choices, something that always makes me take notice of them.


I would love to see George Clooney in a comic book movie role where his age and charisma would be suited to.

Well done again.

Good choices, but I have to agree with PesciGotPepsi and say go with Ariel Winter for Mary Jane

Hailee Steinfeld Needs a bigger role, but otherwise pretty solid cast. You opted for acting and not just looks so that's always a plus. I hope you check out some of my fan cast

Yeah, I agree about Hailee. I'm looking for another actress for the role. Also, thanks. And I'll make sure I check out your fan casts.

I like it man, well some picks are more creative than other I like most of it. Not a big fan of your Harry, I think there are much better choices out there. Love Joaquin as Mysterio but I doubt he'd so it, and Plemons as Shocker is pretty great too. My main problem is the age gap between Greenwood and Tomei would make the Uncle Ben and Aunt May dynamic for pretty weird. I honestly think someone like Clooney would be a better Ben opposite her, cause although he isn't the older man we're used to, he can still pull off the wisdom of Ben. Also really love Gabriel Basso as Flash, really creative pick.
