If it's a black guy, it's gotta be Michael B Jordan.


Err.. He's already in Fantastic Four. Nevermind..


Ahh shite

So a washed up Variety report made a speculation that he could know nothing about... and this is news, how?

P.S: Miles Morales is Donald Glover, you can all die.

Reilly then suggests, based on Jeff's information, that Marvel/Sony should go with Miles Morales instead of Peter Parker. "I don't think it's going to be Peter Parker," Jeff added. "I really feel strongly - Sony has an opportunity to beat Marvel and DC to the punch with sort of a major black comic book movie character. Like I mentioned last week, the e-mails that leaked were perceived to be racist in some quarters. I really think that is going to play into things."




ETA: Really hoping this is just speculation.

I just don't get this. I mean I understand wanting to be racially sensitive and have more roles for minorities or whatever....but this isn't a regular movie with regular characters. It's based on a character that is already established, and that character is white. Just like I think it's stupid as hell to have a black Annie. We wouldn't make an MLK movie with a white lead actor, why change previously white roles to be black for no reason?

Mary Jane will still be white though I bet.

I hate political correctness.

spidey being black could help make things seem more accurate

Peter Parker getting dumped on elderly relatives
Uncle Ben getting a cap busted in his arse


On a serious note, if they are looking for a black guy then you know where their priorities are and the quality will reflect that. if they auditioned a bunch of people and a black guy was the best then who cares

Couple of problems here

1. This guy has little credibility so unless more sources start leaking I'm not buying it
2. Marvel has wanted Spidey for years now. He's their Superman or Batman. There is no way Marvel decides to put in Miles over Parker. Peter Parker's Spider-Man is on the level of Superman and Batman. This has nothing to do with race btw

What?



Peter Parker is the real Spider-Man! If you guys want to cave into using an Ultimate edition, you are traitors and girly-men, pure and simple, and downright Un-American.

That's that bitches!
