The Magazine "Not For Adults" May 2004 edition has just comfirmed that Tobey McGuire has signed on to do 4 more Spidey films after Spider-Man 2. Each film will be commissioned for release within the next 10 years. It's not known yet whether the rest of the mainstream cast like Kristen Dunst or James Franco will be joining T.M. Probably yes, most likely.

yes, they did say during the sneak peak of SM2: "and sony has confirmed there making upto 6 installments of the series, look out james bond".

6 instalments That sounds so cool! Plus this means we get to see some more spidey-kicking-his-archrivals-butts on the big screen! One villian i hope gets into one of these movies is scorpion] im also guessing that HobGobblin will be a villain seeing how Harry Osborn could go the way his father went in movie 1. Who thinks Scorpion and HobGoblin will get in.

actualy, lizard might be in spider-man 3 and venom in no.4 and carnage in no. 5 and ?????????? in no.6

I read on a website that venom and Man-wolf will be in the movie heres the article i found:Toby Maguire and Kirsten Dunst are signed to return in Spider-Man 3 as Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson. With Spider-Man 2 due in July 2004, Spider-Man 3 should arrive two years later. There is now talk of the appearance of Man-Wolf and Venom!

If this is true then...
scorpion could have chance of getting in either 5 or 6.

just a thought where does it say that the Lizard will get into 3.

June 30th, not July 4th... just to clarify things.

Main villains to appear in future Spidey films:

Shocker
Vulture
King Pin
Lizard
Venom
Craven The Hunter
Electro

Black Cat (hero)

But oh please, DO NOT pair up villains like Batman!!!!!!!!!!

what about the sinister six, i would love to see them in the movies

King Pin? I thought he was a Daredevil Villain

no scorpion. why dont they use him. drat.

Wow! 6? Last I heard they were only going to make 3. Guess it's different now. Gee, Spiderman 3 doesn't come out till 2007, so 3 more after that, hmm I wonder if they'll replace Tobey McGuire at some point?

SMX

woah 6....kewwl!!!.....maybe at the end of the 5th one...we'll figure out that Electro was spidermans father.......then in the 6th one......MJ is peters sister.....way kewwl!!!....

Kingpin was a daredevil villian but spidey went heads with him as well, but daredevil had the final victory by actually killing the big man himself.

One thing I would love to see is the Sinister Six vs Spider-man, Venom and Carnage (it would never happen but just imagine those three fighting on the same side )

Jason Horan> that would be sweet, but it woulod cost alot of money and time so i dont think they will do it but lets hope....

Sith Master X> have you been reading anything in here, tobey has signed on to do all six (not sure about the others such as kirsten and james and JK )

YES! If this is true - we WILL see Eddie Brock AKA Venom after all!

Spidey 3 - Lizard introducing Eddie Brock (with the black costume on Spiderman?)

Spidey 4 - Venom (thanks to the setup in 3)

Spidey 5 - Scorpion (born out of JJ's hate)

Spidey 6 - Harry's goblin (make him the Hobgoblin please - Harry's Green goblin was freakin lame - and the characters behind Hobgoblin are lame thugs/bored businessmen - this would be an awesome change).

It would be cool to have the sixth and final Spidey be about Harry's final transformation into an enemy.

And yeah - DO NOT PAIR UP THE VILLAINS!!!!!!!!!!

Like you said they will introduce Eddie in 3 but i remember Eddie being mentioned in spiderman the first one.

also Spidey 5 having scorpion would rock.

I don't think I ever heard them mention Brock in 1. I heard rumours that theres a brief glimpse of him in 2.

One thing I do know is - JJ's astronaut son is in Spidey 2. Let me repeat that, "his ASTRONAUT son". Astronaut. Space. ALIEN! VENOM!

It's a good sign that they are possibly thinking about Venom right now. Doc Conners introduction in 2 as a full blown character only cements my theory that Lizard will be 3 and Venom is 4. I had my doubts but seeing as Tobey has signed on for 4 more - this theory is now highly likely.

I wonder how they would adapt Venoms symbiote anyway? I doubt an alien would be seen as "realistic" (remember they ditched many of the "unrealistic" elements such as radioactive spider, green goblins costume) so I bet if Venom is in the movies - he won't be an alien. My bet would be he is a synthetic man-made bio-weapon - could have links to Harry at Oscorp. That'd be right up Raimis alley.

When a radioactive spider is deemed "unsuitable" for spiderman, how far do you think they'll let a freakin alien suit fly?

S2 will probably have "to be continued" at the end with Venom emerging.

that will be lame

Black Cat should be in a future movie!!

eliza dushku is the black cat

What need to be made are spiderman movies, because the only thing that they have done is man spider movies.

SHUTUP YA GODSHITE

Yeah they havent made any spider-man movies yet,just man-spider movies.

Just because tobey sighned up for 4 more spidey flicks doesnt mean they will be made. Kirsten Doesnt want to be in number three. Does anyone know why Rami decide against calling spidey2 the amazing spiderman? I know for the longest time he was going to label the movies like the comcs. Also in Cinescape, Raimi said he would like to incorperate venom and carnage, but wants to wait until he can find a away to do it without complete CGI. The only reaosn spiderman was so good is because of raimi, If he would leave the franchise, the films would not be the same. I mean look at batman, they were hysteria without keaton and burton

Kirsten Dunst doesn't want to be in Spiderman 3?

What other films could be so important? Has she another Bring It On sequel in the works? Or yet another horrible, horrible Julia Roberts chick flick?

Face it b*t*h, Spiderman is as good as its gonna get for you!

Dunst shouldnt be picky, she has virtually no other prospects. much like Red Superfly said.

Yes but once. Heres the scene.

The scene is in JJ's office. Peter Parker has not yet been hired at The Bugle.

Employee:We sold out
JJ: Sold out?
E:Every copy
JJ:Put Spiderman on page 1 with a decent picture this time
*a couple more things are said*
E:Problem is we dont have a decent picture.Eddie has been on it for weeks. we can barely get a glimps of him........

and that is the one metioning i was talking about about Eddie.

ahahah yea, about Eddie..i was just bout to mention that. Wasn't the employee um, Joe Robertson? I assume that cuz he's African-American.

No, Robbie Robertson. Remember, back in the 60's they liked to give the same letters to the first and last names. Like: Peter Parker, J. Jonah Jamenson, Betty Brant, Robbie Robinson, Scott Summers (X-Men)...etc.

Ah right, I remember that line. I never ever thought it could be Eddie Brock.

Nice. At least they may have been thinking about him from the beginning.

PS, the girl that plays Betty Brant better be in this next one - she was hot as hell.

Eddie Brock WAS, in fact mentioned by Robbie Robertson in the first Spidey movie--a scene that took place in Jameson's office. I would assume they'll introduce or at least make mention of him again in the sequel. I'm a huge Venom fan, and am salivating in anticipation of Spidey3. Can't wait, but I guess I'll have to.
Initially I read that they were looking to make 12 spidey movies in total, but were focused on six for sure, assuming, of course that audiences are still receptive, and they will be. People can't get enough of the wall-crawler, and he's universally appealing.
I know for sure Venom will be in #3,--which I hear will also feature Carnage, though I'm not sure how they will be able to explain or justify the spawning of Venom's offspring so soon after his own introduction. It just all seems like too much for the average person to digest.
I think that in order for it to be really fathomable to fans, some continuity has to be preserved. Brock and Cleetus Kassady have a history together, a knowledge and familiarity with each other that needs to be entertained and played out, so that the viewers will understand the level of hatred that they feel for one another after Brock's symbiote spontaneously breeds Carnage. I just don't think they can gloss over all of that subject-matter and tell the story as effectively.
But, that's just my opinion--after all, these guys DO write movies, and I'm just writing this post. So, we'll see. Personally, I have very high expectations. The dilemma would be to be as true to the story as possible while keeping it fresh and making it appealing to someone who has never read a comic book. In the end, though, the success of the subsequent movies will largely be decided by true Marvel fans, the receptive audience who doles out their hard-earned dollars buying Marvel comics and merchandise. Everyone on this post is saying that the relase date for Spidey3 is 2006--I heard it'd be May 2007. Anyone know for sure? 2006 would be groovy.

How do you know for sure Venom will be in 3? Because you are a huge Venom fan?

No, it'll make more sense to have The Lizard, it's been said ten hundred times before. I'm a huge Venom fan, but like I said, I don't want the fanboys to make them put Venom in 3, when his story is a very slow burner, it cant be rushed. Brock and the symbiote should be in 3, but Venom the villain should take a movie to develop, and we'll see him in 4.

I'd rather wait and have Venom done PROPERLY than have the film makers please the fanboys by rushing out Venom to please the "omg Venom r0xorz!" people.

whups..i meant Robbie Robertson. But yea, he was the employee I was referring to.

Why is spiderman in the movies called "Man-spider". Is it because his origin in the movies is different than the comics. Ihavent really read the comics so why is the one in the movie called"Man-spider" by some.

Long time browser, first time poster, BIG TIME SPIDER-MAN FAN!
As far as villians, there are atleast 2 you can bank on. Venom and the Hobgoblin. Venom.. thats like making Batman with not using the Joker. Plus.. Venom is in the same popularity class with the likes of Wolverine and Spawn.
Hobgoblin. Now why the hell would they have this on going storyline of Harry Osbourne hating Spider-Man and not go down the route of the Hobgoblin. They will have Hobgoblin and i believe this will be one of the best villians.
This how i see the rest of the movies going: Part 3-The Lizard. Part 4-The Hobgoblin. 5-Venom. 6-Carnage.. with Venom part of the story, maybe helping Spider Man.

Because Harry Osbourne isn't the Hobgoblin.

However, because the Green Goblin suit was UTTER CRUD, I'd rather them make Harry The Hobgoblin (hey that even rolls off the tongue).

I suggested this a while ago in some other thread - and instead of bringing back Green Gobby - why not use the Hobgoblin instead.

Harrys Green Goblin was admittedly - crap, in the comics. If you want the next movie to be bigger than the last - then Harry as The Green Goblin isnt the way to go about it - not when you have the likes of Venom, Lizard, Mysterio, Scorpion etc waiting for their turn.

Also, Hobgoblins character was crap. He was just a thug. Combining Harrys human character with the Hobgoblin persona may change the comic material a little, but it would make sense for movie purposes completely - it's a change that would make total sense and would work even better.

Put it this way - in a few years, after we've seen The Lizard and Doctor Octopus on screen, possibly Venom - is ANYBODY gonna be excited to see the Green Goblin back (especially the cruddy movie version)?

What that? Change the Green Goblin costume for Harry? Won't work - Spiderman is supposed to think it's the original green goblin. They'd have to use the original Gobby suit.

To be honest - I'd rather see The Lizard then Venom. Much better choices for sequels in terms of story and fan-pleasing. Then, maybe Harry the Hobby sometime after. If they use Harry as the Green Goblin I don't even want to know, he sucked (really) in the comics anyway.......

Green Goblin is my second favorite character. It really pissed me off when a bunch of idiots said Goblin sucked in the Hulk vs Goblin thread. those guys didnt have any respect for THEE Spidey villian

Yeah - I saw that man. I didn't comment.

They seemed like the kind of people who simply wouldn't listen to any arguement. Gobby would put up a fight, Gobby is the sort of person who knows how to really screw someone up. I could go into a huge arguement as to why Gobby would be good against most characters, but you probably already know how anyway.

It's getting increasingly hard to find people with any sense on these boards.

thats why I dont really post here all that often, and NEVER in the X-men threads good lord thats just a mess.

I stick to the main comic book forum

By the way, in the movies discussion (Van Helsing thread) some idiot called Aku called Spiderman a crap comic, for no good reason at all, just to start a fight I guess. I defended instinctively.

Go read it yourself to see what I mean about the sheer ignorance.

These boards are becoming terrible.

Have a link too it?

And, I better not see a typical "well u don't like it here then why don't you leave?" reply from anybody. That's the usual standard reply for someone complaining about a board.

I'll b*tch slap anybody who talks such crap.

Yeah I saw the dude was prasing Martin Luarence in his profile, he pretty much killed any bit of dignity he had going for him

Martin!!!!!!!!

Blackcat is supposed to be in this movie, I thought--and Felicia Hardy is feautred as a little romantic competition for MJ.

4 5 6??????????????????? thats crazy.........its too much............

I think considering how well they've managed to portray the charcters ie. their backgrounds , information about them etc so well I have the utmost confidence in Sam ' can't make movies with any basic originality and imagination' Raimi, in producing many more Alternate Universe Spiderman films where Spiderman has organic webshooters, bitten by a GENETICALLY-ENHANCED spider, Green Goblin wears a Power Rangers baddie suit, Doc Ock isn't German, Peter Parker continues to wear glasses even though he doesn't need them, Mary Jane lightens her hair to a blond-like colour for no plot reason at all.
And how Raimi thinks the CGI looks more than half decent is beyond me...

So no, I don't think they should make any more...

i think they should

I think Sam Raimi did a great job with the Spider-Man movie and I'm hoping S2 will be just as entertaining!

Yeah - even though I'm not too bothered, I was a little concerned that Dock Ock isn't German. Its like in the X-Men movies, where Pyro is supposed to be an Aussie (or a Brit - the comics never made etheir mind up about that), and Colossus is supposed to be Russian. It's not supposed to be mostly Americans who are mutants - the idea of different nationalities was to show how widespread the condition was becoming - but they denied us that, opting instead for Colossus to come across as some preppy high school jock.

But yeah, Dock Ock, with a name like Otto Octavius you'd expect a little bit of an accent - no?

I like the idea of Peter stillw earing his specs though - it makes total sense

He kept wearing them in the comic too, because he didn't want attention from his friends. He was pretty paranoid about his secret identity.

well parker left his glasses when they broke, and convinced aunt may he was using eye lenses..............and 6 movies is ideal.....cos if they work as now doing one movie every 2 yeasr maguire will be thirty and sth years old just like the comics spiderman now.yah kids peter parker is old ..................so it will end like everything goes like forever or till he gets to old for the job

ya...actually they did mention it in the scene with JJ in the daily bugle...
(i just watched it on tv again a few nites ago haha)
