Film| Spider-Man 3 | |
|---|---|
| Directed by | Sam Raimi |
| Written by | Alvin Sargent (screenwriter) Stan Lee (comic book), Steve Ditko (comic book) |
| Produced by | Avi Arad Laura Ziskin |
| Starring | Tobey Maguire Kirsten Dunst Thomas Haden Church James Franco Topher Grace Elizabeth Banks J.K. Simmons |
| Distributed by | Columbia Pictures (Sony Pictures) |
Spider-Man 3 is the third movie in the Spider-Man series and is planned for an American release on May 4, 2007. The movie will be directed by Sam Raimi. Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, J.K. Simmons, Dylan Baker, and James Franco are the confirmed returning cast members from the previous two Spider-Man movies.
Columbia Pictures officially announced that the main filming for Spider-Man 3 will start on January 2, 2006. but certain preliminary test photography is said to begin as early as September 2005.
New Actors
It has been confirmed that the actor Thomas Haden Church will be playing the main villain. Actor Topher Grace, known for his lead role in the sitcom, That '70s Show, has joined the cast, although his role is unknown at this time.
Possible villains, characters and storylines
Thomas Haden Church
Internet speculators have guessed that Church will either act as Sandman, Chameleon, or (often cited as less likely) Venom.
James Franco
James Franco's character, Harry Osborn, is expected to be the second Green Goblin or possibly be the Hobgoblin in order to avoid the appearance of repeating villains. Harry Osborn becomes the Green Goblin in most comic book adaptions which he is featured, although he was the Hobgoblin in one Ultimate Spider-Man adaption. The first Green Goblin, played by Willem Dafoe, was the villain in the first movie and was also the father of Franco's character. Director Sam Raimi has stated that this movie will stray the most from the comic books and has hinted at the possibility that Franco may not become a supervillain at all.
Dylan Baker
The Lizard was once considered the most likely option due the actor Dylan Baker being cast as Dr. Curt Connors (who becomes The Lizard in the Spider-Man comics) in Spider-Man 2. The Lizard has probably been dropped as consideration for being in the film considering Baker was not immediately signed to this film when other new actors were being sought out and signed. There is also speculation that another sympathetic "mad scientist" villain in the third movie would seem repetitive to the movie goers who have seen the second movie. However, Avi Arad, CEO of Marvel Comics, confirmed in June 2005 that Baker is signed to this movie.
Topher Grace
Raimi has stated that Topher Grace will play "a complex role" which will contrast with the comedic, wholesome, or good-natured roles he's most known for playing. Grace's role in the movie is unclear but since that he is confirmed to play a villain he's mostly expected to play the Chameleon, a role he shares with Thomas Haden Church, who will play the Chameleon's true form, while Grace plays the form the Chameleon uses to be a competition for Peter Parker as a love interest to Mary Jane Watson.
Others
Sam Raimi did happen to let slip, in an interview with Wizard, that there will be more than one villian, so Sandman, Lizard, Green Goblin, or even a Sinister Six, could all be possible. Raimi also let slip that the villain would involve massive CGI, furthering the possibility that Sandman or Venom will be involved.
Raimi admitted that Black Cat was removed from early drafts of Spider-Man 2 script. Raimi had expressed some interest in using her character, but he has not confirmed if she will finally appear in this sequel. The actress Chloë Sevigny however has claimed that she tried out for a new role as a "blond buxom" for this movie, which many fans assumed to be the Black Cat or possibly Gwen Stacy, Parker's first true love in the comics. There is speculation she made these claims to draw attention to herself, which other actresses have done in the past. Columbia Pictures has neither officially acknowledged or denied Sevigny's claim.
Movie score
Composer Danny Elfman has confirmed that he will not be back for the third installment of Spider-Man and instead he will be working on the movie Charlotte's Web. Columbia Pictures and director Sam Raimi have not yet announced who will score the film.
