too late

 

[McLovin]

Mclovin

Im flattered

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Jake Gyllenhaal. I need grownup Spidey.

 

[Nabs]

I'm all in with Donald Glover as Peter, not Miles.

 

[StoppedInTracks]

Still better than Tobey.

 

[Yonafunu]

One and done. Early 20s, already established as Spider-Man, part time at the Bugle with J.K. Simmons still playing Jameson. Presumably playing Peter as he's a bit old for Miles Morales.

Donald Glover is not in his early 20s. The guy's 31 years old.

 

[Rapstah]

Dave Bautista. Completely new spin on the tormented weak teenager character.

 

[sphinx]

Tobey Maguire

exactly, I never understood why there was a need for a re-cast in the first place.

money I guess

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

Grant Gustin if he wasn't Flash already.
Would have been perfect.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Anton Yelchin.

...

For a younger adult Peter, that's actually a really good idea.

 

[Moral Panic]

Some random asian dude. And make mary jane black.

 

[Can Crusher]

Ryan Gosling, let's go for a twist here.

 

[wetwired]

The answer to any casting question is always the same....

Billy Dee

 

[ZeroX03]

Donald Glover is not in his early 20s. The guy's 31 years old.

So? I'm saying his Peter would be early 20s. Same as Andrew Garfield and he's also 31. Donald's real age has no bearing on the age of the character, just the way he looks.

 

[Foxy Fox 39]

Paul Dano

How about no.

 

[neorej]

Donald Glover.
With Idris Elba as Jefferson Morales and JK Simmons as James Jonah Jameson.

 

[FloatOn]

If we are going for an older spiderman how about.....

David Tennant?

 

[Lulubop]

Drake

 

[DOWN]

So many plain looking actors in this thread. Bizarrely unappealing picks by many of you. Spider-man can at least be preposterous AND handsome for Pete's sake.

 

[neorej]

Inspired by the Burton-thread.... how about a Johnny Depp as Spider-Man, Helena Bonham Carter as an outrageous Aunt May AND Mary Jane to reflect Peter's emotional struggles, and Michael Keaton as Venom?

 

[Skinny Pete]

Michael Fassbender or JGL.

 

[fertygo]

I want to see Garfield in better movie first, because god damn if he not look and sounds exactly like Peter Parker.

 

[nintendork666]

Tim Burton's Spider-man starring Johnny Depp!

 

[God Dayumm]

Chris pratt

 

[void666]

Michael Cera

Spoiler

with a mustache.

 

[Unai]

I think he would make a great Peter Parker.

 

[Filthy Casual]

Ryan Gosling

 

[Escape Goat]

Allison Williams or Macy Gray

 

[Log4Girlz]

Oprah Winfrey

 

[hobblygobbly]

Chris pratt

Yes! I agree, Spiderman has this cocky aspect to him, but not in that asshole/douchebag type of cocky, and I think Chris Pratt in the Guardians of the Galaxy pulls off that level of cockiness as well. He'd have to lose some muscle mass though to fit Spiderman's shape although he just seems naturally a large bodied person so I don't think physically it would fit

 

[Escape Goat]

Chriss Pratt does not have the body type for Spider Man. Spider Man is lean with a gymnasts body. Though I love him thusly, he is wrong for this role.

 

[God Dayumm]

Yes! I agree, Spiderman has this cocky aspect to him, but not in that asshole/douchebag type of cocky, and I think Chris Pratt in the Guardians of the Galaxy pulls off that level of cockiness as well. He'd have to lose some muscle mass though to fit Spiderman's shape although he just seems naturally a large bodied person so I don't think physically it would fit

He actually needs that muscle to not look ridiculous next to chris evans, hemsworth and hulk. Even scarjo and saldana have more meat on their bones and look stronger than Garfield and most of the recommendations in this thread. We need spiderman looking like a superhero

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

I like the suggestion of Anton Yelchin.

Leave Gyllenhaal for Nova.

 

[Hazelhurst]

James Franco

 

[Escape Goat]

Im not sure how tall this guy is but he seems to have a pretty lithe and muscular build. This could be Spider Man if he were Danish.

 

[LanceVance]

Christopher Lee

 

[Exotoro]

Has anyone said 8bitnate?

 

[Spinluck]

I think he would make a great Peter Parker.

His character is pretty much Peter on that show.

 

[Log4Girlz]

Has anyone said 8bitnate?

With his sister as spider-girl?

 

[generaldane]

Jansen Ackles or rather take all that money and revive Spectacular Spiderman which is guaranteed to be better than any live action spiderman movie anyways

 

[Shmuppers]

Me.

 

[kehs]

This is like a reverse version of those threads where people post pictures without names.

Should be donald glover though.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

I think he would make a great Peter Parker.

It's gotta be someone with this kinda build, with some muscle put on of course.

To quote Daredevil, "gangly ass posture" is one of the best ways I've seen anyone describe Spider-Man and his general appearance, you can't have a huge dude pull that off.

 

[Dirtyshubb]

I think he would make a great Peter Parker.

He pretty much is the perfect Peter Parker, i would say its a shame he cant play him but he is doing such a great job on The Flash that i wouldnt take him away from it.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

Bryan cranston

 

[Lollipop Dave]

Tobey Maguire.

He has some experience.

Jake Gyllenhaal would be great too.

 

[Edwardo]

Dwayne Johnson

 

[Ran rp]

Drake

YES

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Donald Glover.
