February 5, 2010 - Spider-Man / Logan Lerman being looked at for Peter Parker
Scooped on Friday, February 5, 2010
Percy Jackson leading man Logan Lerman had the press repeating his words when he claimed that Sony Pictures had expressed their interest in having him play the new Peter Parker in the rebooted Spider-Man film. "There have been a few discussions, it's definitely something I'm looking into," Lerman said to Billy Bush on Access Hollywood. "It's one of my favorite characters ever and I'm a huge fan of the series. I'd love to have more conversations about it. I'm definitely very interested in it."
But when The Hollywood Reporter contacted Sony what they were told was something different: "No offers have been made, nor have any business discussions been made with Lerman," said an anonymous studio rep. However, the Reporter did add that Lerman's name is on a long list of young actors that could be called to audition for the role. Still, narrowing that list of candidates down is still a ways off; the trade even stated that the deal isn't final between Marc Webb, the movie's director, and the movie studio yet.
