Maguire, Raimi on 'Spider-Man 4'
And '5'
September 7, 2008
Star Tobey Maguire and director Sam Raimi are close to signing for two more Spider-Man films, according to Hollywood Reporter. Columbia is considering shooting both films in one fell swoop, according to the report, in order to contain costs for the effects-heavy tentpoles. The studio did not comment on whether co-star Kirsten Dunst would join Maguire in the new films, or on who the villains would be.
The release date for Spider-Man 4 will be May 2011, with the fifth film to follow.
The report also named the writers working on the re-write of the Venom spin-off flick: Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese of Zombieland.
