It certainly has been a while for me since i've done one of these. I've decided to finish off TASM's cast after I saw the newest trailer which got me pumped for the movie. I have a ton of other ideas to do, but for now this is what I have. I think they fit pretty well with TASM universe (from what i've seen), and I would definitely love to see them in there. We already know the cast that consists of Andrew Garfield (who I love in the role, hes perfect for it), Emma Stone, Martin Sheen, Sally Field, Dennis Leary, etc. so ill start with my additions.
"I wanna go with you.." -Peter
Alden Ehrenreich is Harry Osborn
Well, since I followed this reboot from the very beginning (its how I started on the site), I knew of all the casting rumours and Alden was on the shortlist. However, I immediately thought he looked just like Harry and was better suited for him. Hes been praised for his work in Tetro, and from what i've seen, he did a good job, and reminds a lot of a young Leo Dicaprio. Hes certainly an actor to watch, and this could help him break out, too.
Bruce Campbell is J Jonah Jameson
If you know me from around, you probably know I love Bruce. He's one of my favorite actors ever, and a perfect fit for JJJ in my opinion. Even though his cameos were slightly a staple of Raimis films, he could easily do this, and no one would notice. Though he'd probably be more serious this time around, Bruce would still own as Jameson. It's Ash Williams and Sam Axe. Its Bruce mother[frick]in' Campbell!
Rachel Nichols is Felicia Hardy/Black Cat
I was thinking who could pull this role off, seeing as it would be a bit hard without making it cheesy, and I thought Nichols, with the ability to play both serious and sexy, could make audiences love the femme fatale. They could easily make Felicia a cult favorite.
Rufus Sewell is Norman Osborn
This is one I never would have suggested in the past, in fact I think i've never seen it. I didn't wanna go with just anyone, but rather the one person you wouldn't expect, that would end up owning the role better than others. Rufus is that for me. I know he can play a pompous ass, and would easily fit inot a ruthless bussiness man/terrible father persona, but im not sure of the goblin side of things, since i haven't seen him do psycho, but he can act his ass off, so im sure he could pull it off. As for the Goblin's design, id hope hes more like a living goblin, something freaky, but of course updated so it doesn't look out of place, but more clearly inspired by the original goblin.
Armie Hammer is Eddie Brock
Some of you probably don't agree with me here, well let me explain. Im sort of re-imagining things here, since Eddie's real origins are pretty unrealistic and not fitting with the scenario at all. Im imagining that Eddie is a high-class socialite, a rich-boy who has it all, family bussiness or something similar, but does journalism and photography. He's a rival photographer to Peter, and his paper/magazine is the 'high-class' one. Im seeing that somehow Eddie is doing illegal things to help his daddys bussiness and peter exposes him, which ends up leaving the company in controversy and bankruptcy, with Eddie losing it all, and his life falling apart around him (his wife leaves him since he has no more money, dad blames him, etc.) and has tremendous rage for spidey and thus the grudge begins. This would build through the movies though, and would leave venom open for a sequel. Armie is absolutely perfect for what i'm imagining here, hes done rich and snobby, hes 6'5, built (filling out the suit for real this time), and his deep voice modified could sound pretty damn menacing. He'd do amazing with the chance.
