December 4, 2010 - Spider-Man / more casting
Scooped on Saturday, December 4, 2010
Campbell Scott (Damages, Singles) has been cast in the role of Peter Parker's father in the film while Julianne Nicholson (Law & Order: Criminal Intent) is in talks to play Peter's mother. The casting news is especially interesting because the parents of Peter Parker have been only seen in flashbacks in the Spider-Man comics and never on the screen. In the comic book's continuity, Peter's parents died when he was an infant, leaving him an orphan to be raised by his Aunt May and Uncle Ben Parker.
Also in talks to be added to the cast are Irrfan Khan (Slumdog Millionaire) and Annie Parisse (Rubicon). Khan's character would be a villain named Van Atter who might turn out to be the Proto-Goblin from the Marvel comics. Parisse would play the wife of the villain.
