Production of the film

Spider-man 4 was originally designed for a 2009 release. However, due to negotiations with both Maguire and Raimi, the film was pushed back to 2010, and eventually was given the confirmed release date of May 6, 2011.


In January 2007, Columbia Pictures entered negotiations with screenwriter David Koepp, who is credited with the first Spider-Man screenplay, to pen the script for a fourth film. However, Koepp declined the offer and due to the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike, the movie was post-poned James Vanderbilt was announced the screen writer, as he impressed the studio with his emphasis on characterization.

In September 2008, David Lindsay-Abaire was in talks to rewrite the script.


Villains for the film

Unlike in it's predessor, the Studio has decided to limit to scope to 2 villains.

One of the confirmed villains will be the Lizard, as Sam Raimi confirmed that if he returned as director, he would turn Dr. Curt Connors. Beforehand even, Dylan Baker, who portays the villains alter-ego Dr. Curt Connors, expressed interest in playing his villainous counter-part. Producer Grant Curtis is also a fan of the character himself.

Although the second villain hasn't been confirmed, there are plenty of guesses as to who it may be. Grant Curtis has expressed interest in Kraven the Hunter and Director Sam Raimi claims that he wants to set up the Sinister Six although the death of Doctor Octopus in the second film has highly denied that possibilty.

Raimi is also a fan of Morbius, the Living Vampire, citing the "combination of superhero plus supernatural". In a recent report, it was revealed that Morbious would not be part of the film, but the villain would deeply be tied with New York, causing speculation about Kingpin, Chameleon, and Kraven the Hunter.

Many fans have speculated that the serial killer Cletus Kasady/Carnage would be in the film as the symbiote piece that Peter gave Connors in Spider-man 3 wasn't destroyed at all.


Fake Advertisements

At the end of 2007 and throughout 2008, many fan-created trailers of Spider-man 4 appeared across the webs. Although none of them were real, many websites had added them to their main page, claiming that they were real. Many of them used the famed deleted scene from Spider-man 1, that depicted Spiderman catching bank robbers in a helicopter on a giant web.

More recently, on June 3, 2009, a teaser-poster released in the Licensing International Expo, was proven to be fake. It had the words May 6, 2011 written on it on top of web, with New York City in the background.
