Variety reports that Sony Pictures has engaged screenwriter James Vanderbilt to write Spider-Man 5 and Spider-Man 6.
Production on Spider-Man 4 will begin early next year for a May 6, 2011 release. Vanderbilt wrote the first draft of the script for the fourth installment. David Lindsay-Abaire was brought on board to do a rewrite, and Gary Ross is now rewriting that script.
I gotta be honest, I think that spider-man 1 and 2 were a fluke. Go back and take a look at Rami’s other movies and you’ll see they’re all like Spider-man 3 was. cheap and cheesy, which is fine for cheap and cheesy movies, but Spider-man…should be a step above. He’s pure class.
