\"Spidey<\/a>If you thought Sony was just going to get out of the way and let Marvel do what they do best with the upcoming Spider-Man <\/strong>reboot, you’d be sadly mistaken.<\/p>\n

According to Jeff Sneider<\/a>, co-host of the Meet the Movie Press<\/a> podcast, the studio that managed the screw up two Spider-Man franchises is butting heads with the studio has done no wrong with their film slate to date over who will be the new Spider-Man.<\/p>\n

The field is down to three contenders, the previously mentioned<\/a> Tom Holland, veritable unknown Matt Lintz<\/a>, and Boardwalk Empire’s <\/strong>Charlie Plummer<\/a>. Conspicuous in his absence is Asa Butterfield, who Latino Review stated was in final negotiations<\/a> for the role. I know, I know. A Latino Review rumor that is probably wrong? It seems hard to believe.<\/p>\n

Sneider says that even though Lintz is still in contention, it really is a two horse race between Holland, who Sony wants, and Plummer, who Marvel is behind.<\/p>\n

While a casting announcement was rumored to hit last week<\/a>, this latest back and forth not only delays the announcement, but would possible delay shooting on Captain America: Civil War<\/strong>. Sources say Marvel was bringing potential actors to that film’s Atlanta set to audition with the hopes of immediately having the actor start shooting the character’s scenes in film. Now, it looks like the Spider-Man scenes will be delayed to at least July while the casting mess gets straightened out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Leave it up to Sony to screw up another Spider-Man film. <\/div>\n
