Spider-Man 4 Scrapped; Studio Turns Attention to Reboot



According to a report from Deadline Hollywood earlier today, Sony Pictures has scrapped Spider-Man 4 and will instead concentrate its efforts on a reboot of the franchise, with a script from Jamie Vanderbilt, who wrote the highly acclaimed Zodiac from 2007.

Rumors circulate that James Cameron could possibly direct, and Anne Hathaway would take the role of love interest Mary Jane. No word on a new Peter Parker, but the Cameron/Hathaway talks, I feel are simply wishful thinking at this point. The move seems to be no real big surprise with the almost daily reports of Raimi's dissatisfaction of the script. The reboot is tentatively scheduled for a summer 2012 release.
