Why Elle Fanning Should Be The Next Aunt May In The Next SPIDER-MAN Remake

With the recent trend of Spiderman needing a reboot every 7 years, it's no secret that we can expect a new Spiderman not too far off. But who should play the legendary role of Aunt May?

Well, a new Spider-Man is upon us. And coming with him, a new Aunt May. Over the past few years Aunt May has become drastically younger and younger and with the recent casting of Marisa Tomei, I have a feeling that Marvel can go younger.

I mean, if Marvel/Sony is going to completely ignore the point of the Aunt May character, we might as well stick with the trend am I right? So here's my idea.

Elle Fanning. Yeah, I'm sure you're going "whaaaa?" here. The point is, with Marvel continuing to cast younger actresses for Aunt May, Elle Fanning is the only logical successor in 2023's inevitable reboot.

With Marvel completely ignoring Aunt May being the burden to Peter Parker, casting an actress the same age as Peter will completely add a new dimension to the character. Instead of Peter having to worry if Aunt May dies, he will instead have to worry if his cousin May dies. Get me?

Also for a second thought, In the 2023 inevitable reboot, I'm thinking they make her Pete's 3rd cousin once removed. Just so we could also have a new love interest.
