RUMOR: Anton Yelchin is the new Harry Osborn?

Could Anton Yelchin be playing the new Harry Osborn in the "Spider-Man" reboot? Let's find out.

Normally I don't report rumors, nor do I want to start one. But I find this very interesting. Even though I don't believe anything IMDb.com members add to upcoming films (because released films are mostly accurate, obviously), I found that Anton Yelchin is rumored to play Harry Osborn in the new "Spider-Man" reboot.

Here's a pic I took with my video camera, just to show you quickly (just in case it get's taken off soon):



Even though it's just a rumor, I don't mind the casting choice at all. In fact, I think he would be a great choice to play Harry. Plus, he was one of the contenders to play Spidey, way before Andrew Garfield was finally cast. Maybe he can still land a role in this movie. And placing him as Harry Osborn wouldn't be a bad choice at all.

So what do you think? Should Anton Yelchin play Harry, or should he stay away from this "Spider-Man" reboot? And why?

I think he is too young for Harry. If Peter is a bit old , Harry should to.

He will be 23 by the year 2012, when this movie comes out. So I don't think that really matters that he's younger than Andrew Garfield. Besides, I don't think he looks too young if they're going with the college route.

He still look young. But I think he can do a great Herry. I just wish this is true.

I agree. But the rumor to me is really cool. Just because I think Anton Yelchin would be a perfect Harry Osborn, imo.

i think because we have Fan Casted Yelchin as Harry, someone took it upon themselves to modify his IMDB page.
this is exactly why i hate IMDB and Wiki as sources!!!!
