RUMOR: Josh Hutcherson Has Been Cast as Spider-Man! Lizard to be Villain!

Blue Sky Disney has leaked the news and the Internets are aflame!

With all of the talk about who would be the next Peter Parker, every male actor and their Mom auditioned for the role with Sony selecting a handful of candidates as the finalists for the coveted role of Spider-Man. I thought they'd wait until Comic-Con to announce who he would be, but Blue Sky Disney got the scoop:

Your friendly, rebooted Spider-Man in the flesh. Word from my Bothans is that Sony has settled on "Journey to the Center of the Earth's" Josh Hutcherson as the newly, high school bound Peter Parker. After several extensive test shoots were performed, Marc Webb and the top Sony $uits decided that Hutcherson was the right fit for the role and an offer was made and has been accepted. Now I wonder who'll be cast as the Lizard?

Sirawesome: He looks pretty close to the part and has some decent acting chops, I think he'll go fine in the spiderman reboot. What do you guys think of Hutcherson?

sirawesome754: Great find!

I'm not too big on this reboot but of all the options, I've liked this kid from the start. He has been good in everything I've seen him in.

The only problem I could see is that he has always played a little tuff guy with some sort of attitude or chip on his shoulder. Playing meek little Peter Parker will be something different for him.

Oh yeah, [frick] the reboot! =D

I don't really know the actor, but I'm glad they got someone who isn't going to be 30 when the movie comes out.

not too happy....I guess I'll have to wait and see....hopefully Black Cat shows up in the trilogy that's all I'm hoping for.

AMBER HEARD OR BLAKE LIVELY FOR BLACK CAT!!!! somewhere down the line.

Someone even placed a great big sign on my lawn with this info.

that sucks man. i've watched a lot of movies with this kid in them and he isn't that good of an actor.
cirque de freak - he sucked
journey to the center of crap - he sucked
bridge to tarabithia - he sucked, don't be fooled by the seriousness of that role. the little girl made that movie, not hutcherson

this is not a good day for spidey fans.

chopfer15 - 6/30/2010, 12:57 PM
since sony is trying to get all the teeny bopper/twilight girls to watch a super hero movie why not go full douche and pick zac freakin efron...LOL

i say logan lerman - percy wasn't a bad movie, didn't show any depth but he didn't have to and he has the look

or aaron johnson - who says you can't play 2 comic characters at the same time, does ryan reynolds ring a bell. johnson showed serious acting chops in kick ass and has the geek boy parker down pat

If he gets the role, the supporting cast better be phe-f*cking-nomenal otherwise I won't be seeing this.

Jamie Bell would have been the best choice. He can really act this role.

I really don't think this is that bad of a choice. I mean sure the guy has been in some shit movies but everyone deserves a shot at redemption. I think he would be good for this type of reboot. And I agree with everyone that this reboot idea is shit, but no matter who they chose or will choose people are gonna complain about it anyways.

ANYONE WHO ISN't JOSH HUTCHERSON IS BETTER THEN THIS CHOICE!!!

REBOOOOOOOT!!!!!

NOO! To even think the movie was going uphill with the lizard and Jaimie Bell casting rumors. Sony just flushed all the good potential they had down the toilet.

Boycott the Spiderman reboot if this is true! We don't need another piece of S%@t from those Sony executives who dont know how to make a good movie.

U know anyone who says frick the reboot really needs to sit down and watch Raimi's trilogy again and realise that this is not the Spider-Man in the comics.

Besides I liked Hutcherson in Cirque Du Freak and I'm willing to give him a chance. And hey if he can out Peter Parker Aaron Johnson than I'm gonna give him a shot.
