'Spider-Man 4' aiming for May 2011 release

11:53 AM PT, Jun 20 2008

 

Peter Parker is swinging back into the muliplex—but not for a while.

 

“Spider-Man” producer Laura Ziskin said the fourth installment in the web-slinging superhero series is tentatively scheduled to arrive in May 2011.

 

In remarks Thursday to theater owners from California and Nevada, Ziskin said there was no finished screenplay, but that she and Sony Pictures were hopeful “Spider-Man 4” could be ready in three years’ time.

 

The first three movies comprise one of the most successful franchises in modern Hollywood history, grossing a combined $2.5 billion worldwide. Neither star Tobey Maguire nor director Sam Raimi is yet committed to work on the next installment. But Sony has paid Marvel to renew its rights.

 

Before she tackles the next “Spider-Man,” Ziskin is producing a one-hour fundraiser for cancer research that will be shown commercial-free on ABC, NBC and CBS on Sept. 5.

 

Ziskin, a cancer survivor, showed the several hundred exhibitors a new theatrical public service announcement directed by David Fincher (“Fight Club”) that promotes Ziskin’s cancer cause, Stand Up to Cancer.

Wow, isn't it a great time to be a comic-collector with what's happening in films now and plans for the future. I do remember reading a thread several years ago about the future of comic books heroes in the movies...maybe right around the time the Daredevil movie came out.

 

I remember pros and cons with some posters suggesting it won't last. Certainly with Marvel producing their own movies now, it's looking pretty good if Iron Man or Hulk are examples of what's to come.

 

I also remember predictions of 2 heroes getting together in one movie after they have had their solo introductions. Someone hoped for a Wolverine/Hulk fight...certainly within the realms of possibilities now as per this article...for sure.

 

I do believe we are at least decades away from this ending. And, it will....but with any kinda' luck...not in my lifetime.
