Just sounds like a random opinion, no way Sony gamble with their biggest meal ticket by making him an ethnic minority, not when there is no teen Eddie Murphy or will Smith about and for what? damage limitation to leaked emails that everyone has forgot about?

I'm 99% sure that Spider-Man will be Peter Parker. And since my made-up odds beat his, I think we know what the deal is.

if spiderman is black, it'll be the only spiderman movie where his mask isn't ripped off for the entire movie.

One reason he could be black (in my head - without listening to the YouTube link you posted) is just a hunch I have.

Now Marvel are involved, having wanted it back all this time knowing/saying/thinking they could do it better, what more of a "boss" move would it be to not only separate themselves from the Sony-only Spidey, but prove how good they are by making an non-white, non-Peter Parker Spiderman pop off?



That's why I think he'll be Black/Hispanic and not PP.

Marvel already mentioned Peter in their press release, and remember sony still has control and final say on the character.

It just brings up so many bad memories of a company trying hard to correct something that didn't need to be corrected only to then have fans crush them for it which made them make a confusing situation even more confusing....I just went cross eyed

Considering some of the comments made in the other thread a week or so back, I'd love it if this was the case.
Laugh all the way to the theater on release date. Hopefully someone in the audience has a meltdown.
