News, Who will be villain in ‘Spider-Man 4’? (Sony, romance, director)

Sam Raimi wants the Vulture, studio pushing for romance with Black Cat.


LOS ANGELES - The latest "Spider-Man" sequel is proving villainously difficult to plot out.

Sony and director Sam Raimi are at loggerheads over which direction to go with the villains for the latest installment -- an impasse that has prompted the studio to delay its scheduled spring production start and potentially to bump the picture from its May 11, 2011 release slot.

OMG, don't let studio mess up this one, too. I know that Spiderman 3 made a boatload of money but everybody pretty much agrees that it sucked. Keep BC out of it, PLEASSSEEEE!!!!

I don't see what would be wrong with a Kingpin story, maybe with him sending Kraven et al out to kill the Webhead.

Kingpin and Kraven are great characters. I also loved Mysterio...IMO the combination would be great.

I've read John Malkovich will play the Vulture.
