BUMP
Ok, so I decided to go hunting for things on the reboot yesterday, and I found some interesting stuff.
I found TWO auditions; one that's for Billy Connors, and the other may or not have been for this film, but has a strong chance that it was. First, the film is being codenamed "Untitled Teen Action/Adventure Film" as the Hollywood Reporter article on the actors being looked for to play "J Jonah Jameson" states. These two auditions have the same name in the title, and they both mention Sony Pictures.
First up is the Billy Connors audition (skip to 1:44 for the actual reading):

And here's another one from a while back (My guess is that this guy was up for Spider-Man. Skip to 1:07):

Now, in the second video, they don't call him Peter Parker, probably just to keep it top secret. But, as you can see, he's telling wise cracks while getting beat up by the bully. Very Spidey like.
So, do you guys think the dialogue they used in their auditions were from the actual script, or do you think they were just sample dialogue that Sony sent them? Discuss.
