Though a few of the actors in this cast wouldnt be my ideal choices (for example, I'd like to see Bret Harrison as Spider-Man. However, he's too old to play a teenage Peter!) I have based this cast on the recent news that the next Spider-Man movie will be a reboot with a whole new cast set in high school. For that reason, my choices are all actors under 20 so if you're not that familiar with them feel free to ask me (or Google them, lol!) in the comments section!

Logan Lerman as Peter Parker/Spider-Man

Spider-Man


Peter Benjamin Parker is The Amazing Spider-Man. As a teenager, Peter was bitten by a radioactive spider that gave him super powers.

Chace Crawford as Harry Osborn

Harry Osborn


Peter Parker's best friend who later followed in his father's footsteps by donning the mantle of the Green Goblin.

Logan Huffman as Flash Thompson

Flash


Young Peter Parker's classmate, he was a bully through and through. Ironically he was also Spider-Man's biggest fan.

Willa Holland as Gwen Stacy

Danny Glover as Robbie Robertson

Robbie


Joseph “Robbie” Robertson is J. Jonah Jameson’s right hand arm. He is the opposite of his employer. He is a man of integrity, thoughtful and staid.

ENEMIES

I really have no idea who the best choice of villain would be in the planned reboot - it would be great to see the Green Goblin again in a more authentic costume etc but it would also be good to see a new villain take on Spider-Man! That's why I've cast most of the characters classic villains with a few new casting choices and a few I've used before that I think are too perfect to change!

John C. McGinley as Norman Osborn/Green Goblin

Green Goblin


Best known as the Green Goblin, one of Spider-Man's greatest enemies. Norman has the world fooled into thinking he is simply a business leader.

Alec Baldwin as Otto Octavius/Doctor Octopus
