Take it with a pinch of salt for now, but I believe it. This guy has leaked things before that turned out to be accurate. He detailed negotiations between Sony and Marvel as early as mid December, back when there was no way to know these things.

Seems like a great choice. I personally prefer Logan Lerman, but if i'm honest Dylan O'Brien makes a better Peter Parker. Still not sold on his acting though, but I trust Marvel.

I seriously cannot be bothered for ANOTHER Peter Parker reboot.

They're gonna skip the origin story this time though.

 

 

oh stiles from teenwolf??

 

yesss he totally works as a young spiderman

 

Yep. I'm guessing the next TW season will be O'Brien's last. At best the one after that.

He isn't geeky/dorky looking enough to be Peter Parker. Seriously, Toby is the only Peter Parker I'll ever accept. Not that there's anything wrong with Andrew Garfield or anything, but he just had that "everyone's best friend" vibe to him so I couldn't really picture him as the school dweeb. And this guy has that same feeling. They need to stop going for these young, hott stars and literally just look for someone that is legit dork material.

YASSSSS! This guy was born to be Peter Parker - I mean, just look at him play Stiles in Teen Wolf season 1. Logan Lerman was definitely a top contender, in my books, as well, but apparently he's sick of teen roles and Peter's going to be in high school.

 

Either, either, way this film is going to be good. So glad they're skipping over the origin storyline and just getting straight into things.

Still, would much prefer a Miles Morales reboot. Peter Parker has been done to death.

For any legitimate reason, or just because he's black/latino? It's kinda funny... I never saw anyone mention that name once in my 10+ years of liking Spider-Man outside of comic circles. Now suddenly everyone wants a MM Spidey? Such BS.

Styling can change a lot. I'm not too worried about how an actor looks. The groundwork for a good Peter Parker is clearly there with O'Brien.

 

 

He fits the role. Though i'm somewhat sad for Andrew being kicked out like that. Throughout TASM 2 though.......... was staring at Dane's beautiful eyes omfg

Word is actually that Andrew himself refused to continue as Spidey because he didn't like the movies, but that Sony formally "fired" him. I believe it because of that stint he pulled at an event with the Japanese Sony execs.
