We've recently heard news that the production start date for Spider-Man 4 was pushed back several months. That information along with the rumor Sam Raimi has been quarreling with Sony over the screenplay doesn't add up to good news for Spidey movie fans hoping for another sequel.
Nikki Finke just released this email that seems to solidify the peril that the production of Spider-Man 4 faces:
Hi there.
So, it’s official. “Spider-Man 4” has been pushed back several months, both the start of shooting and the release date.
At this time, we have no official start date, so I would encourage all of you to look for other work.
If/when the situation changes, either Rachelle, Spencer, or I will be in touch.
I apologize for the inconvenience.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
