Adrian Lester (The Day After Tomorrow) has been cast in Spider-Man 3 as a research scientist working on finding a cure for one of the film's villains: either Thomas Hayden Church as Sandman or Topher Grace as Venom.
"I'll be going straight from promoting 'Hustle' to filming 'Spider-Man 3'," he told What's On TV. "I haven't even had a script yet. All I know is that I'm playing a research scientist who tries to cure the baddie of whatever badness he's got. I don't even know who the new baddie is!"
