Well, I've decided to go for it with a Spider-Man recast.... I'm going with the whole Marc Webb (anyone else find that a bit punny?) bit and trying for a younger cast. Hope you like.
PETER PARKER/ SPIDER-MAN
Logan Lerman
While he is a fan favorite, I could totally see him pulling off the wall crawler! He's a bit older tho, but he'll do fine!
GWEN STACY
Dakota Fanning
Yes, this is an unusual choice, but I have faith in her. She's a phenomenal actress, one that could do loads better than anyone else.
MARY JANE WATSON
Willa Holland
She has done great work on Gossip Girl and I think she would do great as portraying MJ as the party girl exterior, dreamer girl interior.
ADRIAN TOOMES/ THE VULTURE
Ben Kingsley
Another fan favorite. Although I am aware others wish him to be Professor Charles Xavier, he would do better as Vulture. I was thinking about having Toomes be a senior developer at OsCorp who comes up with the Vulture wings, and it could be a way to introduce Norman Osborn.
HARRY OSBORN
Anton Yelchin
Yet another fan favorite. he's a fantastic actor though, and one that would be awesome!
AUNT MAY
Cloris Leachman
I was watching Spanglish the other day and she was in it, and she portrayed a down to earth character I see Aunt May being (minus the alcoholism...)
UNCLE BEN
Robert Redford
This might be a controversial choice, but my line of thinking was this: remember in Batman Begins, when Liam Neeson turns out to be Ra's al Ghul? and everybody was shocked, because Liam is mostly mentors? Well its the same thing, give a big named actor and then kill him off in the beginning? it would deliver a shock factor.
NORMAN OSBORN
Jude Law
Another controversial choice. i dont think theres any way he'll play General Zod (as many fans wished) but he would be better as a psychopathic lunatic.
J. JONAH JAMESON
Sam Elliot
This is a choice that doesn't sit 100% well with me. I thought J.K. Simmons's portrayal was as perfect as it could have been. however, since this is a recast, i went with someone i thought could do just as good a job.
ROBBIE ROBERTSON
Joe Morton
Morton has been in numerous TV shows such as House and the Good Wife. He has also been in Speed 2 and American Gangster. I hope Robbie's roll is expanded more than it was in the Raimi series.
BETTY BRANT
Kiera Knightley
This is a choice I'm happy with. Kiera definitely has the chops for the role as Betty, and she's 24, so she'll be around the age of Peter. This way, if Webb decides to pursue a flirtatious aspect of Peter and Betty (as seen in the original comics) it won't be so creepy lol.
DR. OTTO OCTAVIOUS
Tim Robbins
The way I see this, he'll be a scientist in a cameo role, maybe seen on TV at a press conference or in a building while Spider-Man is fighting the Vulture. But I want him to have a memorable role, so he can appear in the sequels.
CAPTAIN GEORGE STACY
Pierce Brosnan
Yeah, well thank God Capt. Stacy doesnt have to sing! lol. Brosnan, or 007, would be great as a hard-edged cop and father of Gwen Stacy.
DR. CURT CONNORS
Colin Hanks
He is Tom Hanks's son. I see this Connors as a younger face, and his children are only like 5 years old, max. this could parallel to Nolan's Commissioner Gordon.
Well that's it! i hope you like it! i'm gonna try and formulate a story to go along with it, but no promises.
**peace, love, and rock 'n roll**
