-From Reed Tucker @NyPost-
While picking producer Todd Black's brain about "The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3," I asked a few questions about the upcoming "Spider-Man 4." Black was understandably cryptic, but here's what I did learn:
- Kirsten Dunst is definitely on board. Last month, director Sam Raimi was quoted as saying he didn't know if the actor was going to sign up to play Mary Jane again, but it appears that she has.
- Contrary to online rumors, it doesn't look like the script will feature a wedding between Mary Jane and Peter Parker. Black had no knowledge of that subplot.
- Also contrary to online rumors (but really, are there any other kind?), the villain will not be Morbius the vampire. Sure, vampires are hot, but Black squashed that rumor completely.
- As for who the villain will be, Black had this to say: "We're just coming up with who the villain's going to be now. We'll be shooting in New York again. Trust me, people will appreciate who we pick, because it'll be a big part of New York."

I don't know if this guy is messing with us - probably not. But either way he doesn't give us much of a clue about the villian being a big part of Ny.......What the hell does that mean? My biggest guesses are Kingpin (a stupid idea considering the obvious rehashing) - or the Lizard considering the sewers of Ny? Who knows? Ideas anyone?
Looks like Morbius is probably out though unless this guy's being a total ass.
