....who was known for The Patriot and Brokeback Mountain..... on his way to being a headliner especially AFTER his Joker role, but not before.

I think people still associated Heath Ledger with his rom-com stuff mostly when the casting was announced.

What FT said. My emoticon is linkable to an image of people's comments after the casting announcement of Ledger.

I can see why Foxx might be a suspect actor to play the part, perhaps because he has become too big to be just a coincidence that he was the only person in mind for the part, if that makes sense. Sure we've seen him have villainous traits, but I don't know if we've ever seen him as an antagonist in all aspects of the word. But after Nolan and Ledger, I'll give casting choices the benefit of the doubt (unless I actually see them crumble on screen). I think it's just better to never say never.

It's looking like a certain character could surprisingly be in the sequel.

Director Marc Webb has been tweeting a photo a day this week from the set of The Amazing Spider-Man 2, which just began filming in New York. The photo below has sent fanboys into a frenzy over the possibilities it raises, namely the prospect of Venom being in the movie.

Webb tweeted the photo below yesterday of a locker and included the hashtag "#happybirthday." So why is this significant?



As Crave points out (via Badass Digest):

That's the same number as the locker in which Peter Parker and Eddie Brock found the Venom suit in the Ultimate Spider-Man comic books, in which the suit was an invention by their respective parents, intended to cure cancer. Eventually, the symbiote bonded to Brock, and if you know anything about Spider-Man whatsoever, you probably at least get the gist of what happened next. This, dear readers, is the locker in which Venom was born.

That is not, however, the significance of the hashtag "#happybirthday." February 6 is the birthday of Amazing Spider-Man 2 co-star Dane DeHaan, who plays Harry Osborn in the sequel. Translation: "Happy Birthday, Dane DeHaan... Here's your Venom suit."

If we're right (again, if Marc Webb isn't just screwing with us), then Dane DeHaan would be the new Venom. And that makes a lot of sense, doesn't it? The son of the Green Goblin, friends with Peter Parker, who will eventually turn on the hero. With his roots in OsCorp and his best friend Spider-Man destined to turn against Harry's father, Dane DeHaan seems like the perfect candidate for the Venom suit in the new franchise, and then get his own solo movie, courtesy of DeHaan's old Chronicle director, Josh Trank.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 opens May 2, 2014.

I hope it's true and I hope that they treat him as they should and not rush it.

How is Peter gonna go from Gwen to MJ?

[jmood88]

Re: The Amazing Spiderman Sequel (201?)

Gwen's gonna die, probably. That's what happened in the comics and people have said that they are filming scenes in locations that would suggest that her death is going to happen in this movie.

Re: The Amazing Spiderman Sequel (201?)

We have a Norman Osborn now.

This is a pretty solid ****ing cast.

With Rhino and Electro in this maybe that scene will set him up for the 3rd movie. Venom is such a popular and complex character I can't see him with 2 other villans in a movie and done right....would just seemed rushed. Maybe with Green Goblin in the 3rd and even that's pushing it
