    Spider-Man , but not for another three years.

    Speaking Thursday to theater owners from California and Nevada, Spider-Man producer Laura Ziskin said the fourth installment of the franchise is tentatively set to open in May 2011. There’s still no screenplay, but Ziskin said she and Sony Pictures are hopeful Spider-Man 4 could be ready by the target date.

    Of course, the script isn’t the only hurdle the production faces: Neither director Sam Raimi nor star Tobey Maguire has committed to a fourth installment. Raimi he wants to see a screenplay first, while Maguire’s participation seems to hinge on Raimi’s decision.

    It was reported that Sony had renewed the rights to the franchise, which has grossed $2.5 billion worldwide.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    So they don’t have a script, a director or a cast, but they do have a release date? Interesting move lol

    Three years?!!? This should be their agenda

    1. Fire current cast get a better one

    2. Try and focus on one villain

    3. Try not to make anyone emo

    4. No god damn dancing scene!!!

    "
    1) J. K. Simmons is perfect as Jameson. Bryce Howard did a great Gwen Stacy. Norman Osborn (Not Green Goblin - 'stume sucked) and Doc Ock was good. As for as everyone else - pink slip 'em!.
    2) Spidey and Spidey 2 did that fairly well.
    3) I agree. Spidey should be the only emo kid - with Uncle Ben's death - but not EVERYONE! Sheesh.
    4) No comment necessary.

    Also
    5) Less Spidey CG - get a Parkour gymnast in the uniform with more environmental DFX
    6) Trust the orginal story more
    7) Less cheese more meat!

    what Toby Maguire failed to do was make sarcastic remarks and witty punchlines like Spiderman does in the comics, and cartoons.

    Hollywood gossip columnist Nikki Finke reports that Sony Pictures has locked in director Sam Raimi and star Tobey Maguire for Spider-Man 4.

    According to Finke, Kirsten Dunst hasn’t been signed, “but Mary Jane Watson will be featured.”

    As we reported in June, Sony is aiming for May 2011 release, which could put it at odds with Marvel’s plans for The First Avenger: Captain America.

    If we’re to believe Finke, Sony would like to film the fourth and fifth installments of Spider-Man next fall to cut costs and accommodate schedules.

    The Spider-Man 4 script, by Zodiac screenwriter Jamie Vanderbilt, reportedly will lose the black duds, and avoid the darker tone so many seem determined to adopt after the success of The Dark Knight.

    Update:Variety’s Tom McLean writes that, “given Raimi’s preference for Silver Age stuff,” The Lizard seems the likely villain for the fourth movie.

    That would fall in line with what Finke writes: “I am told, however, that ‘once you find out who the villain is, you’ll know who’s playing it.’” Actor Dylan Baker appeared as Dr. Curt Connors in Spider-Man 2 and Spider-Man 3.

    Update 2 (9:40 p.m.): The Hollywood Reporterweighs in with word that Raimi and Maguire “are said to be close to locking in a deal to return for the fourth and fifth installments.”

    The trade paper also updates movement on the planned Venom spinoff, first reported in July. Sony has brought in screenwriters Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese (Zombieland) to take a crack at Jacob Estes’ draft.
