I love the bits and pieces of info we are getting on this film.

What's next..."Sony is having a casting call for 60 year Caucasian man with one nostril."

HERE COMES VULTURE!

Haha freaky!

I think this is Dr. Connors' son. It's the only one that makes sense. And Raimi using Carnage isn't out of the question. Just because he said he hated the symbiotes, doesn't mean he wouldn't include them in a story. The red headed kid could very well be Cletus Kasady in a flashback of some sort.

true man i wouldn't mind seeing Carnage in SM4

no way it could be Parkers kid imo

Isn't it obvious? Don't you guys remember that stupid rumor on imdb about May being pregnant?

Could this be Peter and Mary Jane's child, everyone wonders. Could it be that Spider-Man 4 opens with Pete and MJ not just married but settled down?

I doubt it. A lot. I don't have any special information on this one, but the idea of opening the next Spidey movie that in media res doesn't quite gibe for me. We're skipping huge and important chunks of Peter Parker's life, and huge chunks that could be dramatic and interesting. If I had to guess, I'd say that Mary Jane has a nephew/niece who comes into her life, and Peter has to figure out how to be Spider-Man while still taking care of this kid. Or at the very least the kid raises the specter of the couple's future.

If this baby is Peter and Mary Jane's, it wouldn't be without precedent. During the very dark (and I don't mean tonally, I mean for the fans) Clone Saga, Peter knocked up MJ; the kid was stillborn, but survived in an alternate reality and was a daughter. I don't think the kid has ever been brought up again in the regular Marvel Universe; like much of what happened to Spider-Man in the 90s and early 00s it's too lame to include in continuity. This is why you'll never again read about how Spider-Man once bit a guy to death.

Making this baby be Peter and MJ's actual kid feels like bad storytelling to me. Having Peter go through the crisis of conscience over whether or not he wants to risk bringing a baby into his life, and whether or not he'd have to give up being Spider-Man and, most importantly, whether or not that baby would be a mutant freak thanks to dad's spider-powers, would make for an interesting installment in the film series.

This could mean anything, it could mean just to cast an extra or a kid for a short scene where Spidey rescues him or something.
I was always love it when people go nuts over the most random nondescript castings.

indeed. quite hilarious.

 

[BlueLightning]

That's why I love the internet.... no wait I hate it. I "lovhate" it

 

[omid17]

McAdams confirmed the rumors were bull****

 

[Silver Sable]

exactly why would they be showing, Cletus Cassidy, at 2-3 y.o. ???

Ever saw the movie Problem Child when Junior was a toddler? maybe that's why lol

 

[Hobgoblin]

My money is on Billy Connors. Just because the hair color is different doesnt mean anything. Robbie Robertson was slim in the comics but the role for the movie specifically called for a heavy set man.

 

[Gamma Goliath]

yeah thats a pretty good guess, which if true, it will open up more about doc. conners possibly delving into his personal problems and the emergance of the lizard.
why else would they need to introduce his family

 

[omid17]

true

 

[weezerspider]

I think a flashback from Cassidy's past is what the kids for. That doesn't mean Carnage is the villain. Maybe Sam's going to put Cassidy in 4 and build his character, so when he does become Carnage, he doesn't have 5 minutes of screen time.

 

[MessiahDecoy123]

I doubt Carnage will be in it being that Raimi stated he has more creative control this time.

 

[Hobgoblin]

Even more likely, the kid is just an extra.

 

[GoldGoblin]

Holly crap,the Lizard is gonna be the villain,cause this is certainly Dr.Connors kid...

 

[spider-neil]

please don't let it be pete's and mj's kid. PLEASE!

 

[omid17]

Even more likely, the kid is just an extra.

could be

 

[Vile]

another kid for Spidey to save from a burning building!

Come on Raimi! Please?

 

[chaseter]

Yeah this is probably just another kid he saves. But dear God no scene like in SM2 where that little girl pulls him up from the wreckage.

 

[DarthDaveBanner]

I'm sure its Billy Connors. As for the hair, maybe they have already cast Curt's wife and she's a redhead.
