There was other interesting news there... blah bah blah. But here are possible SPOILERS for the SPIDER-MAN sequel
E! Online columnist Anderson Jones reported a rumor that Robert De Niro may be the first choice to play the villainous Doctor Octopus in Sam Raimi's upcoming sequel film The Amazing Spider-Man. Jones added that longtime Raimi pal Bruce Campbell (The Evil Dead), who had a cameo in the first Spider-Man, has been cast as the evil Lizard in the sequel, which is being redrafted by novelist Michael Chabon.
If De Niro passes, Jones reported that another Raimi buddy, Billy Bob Thornton, may be on standby to put on Doc Ock's eight arms. Recent rumors have suggested that Vincent D'Onofrio (The Cell) was in line for the role as well.
Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst and James Franco have all signed on to reprise their Spider-Man roles in Amazing Spider-Man, which is slated to begin production in February.
W00t! Go, Bruce, go! Who better to play Dr. Connors? *g*
