Spidey...again?

I stumbled across a post on Tumblr talking about another Spider-Man reboot.

And I freaked out. I loved Andrew Garfield as Spider-Man, because I felt like he really captured the character from the comics. He was awkward and adorable as Peter Parker—yet a sarcastic smartass as your friendly neighborhood Spidey. While I wasn’t as familiar with the “Amazing Spider-Man” series as I was with Tobey Maguire’s rendition, I enjoyed the movies greatly and even went to say I liked Garfield’s portrayal more than Maguire’s.

So another reboot was a big no-no in my eyes, until I read a little further.

Apparently, Sony and Disney’s Marvel are talking about some sort of deal to get a Spider-Man cameo in the upcoming Captain America: Civil War. Which means Spider-Man working with the Avengers! Those of you who have visited my blog before know how much I want that to happen in the movies—I talked about it in a previous post. So this is basically great news for me, and I was starting to get on board with this new Spidey reboot.

The only problem? Garfield would no longer be Spider-Man, which would be disappointing.

The upside? MY FAVORITE ACTOR EVER IS MARVEL’S NUMBER ONE CHOICE TO PLAY PETER PARKER.

Logan Lerman, who I have also mentioned quite a few times previously, is the “heavy favorite” for the role. Lerman, who was rumored to play Spidey when The Amazing Spider-Man was introduced, has already stated his interest in being the masked vigilante by saying that Spidey is one of his favorite comic book characters. He’s fantastic at acting in the hero role (see The Three Muskateers or Percy Jackson. While the PJ movies were TERRIBLE, Lerman was always the highlight of them, playing Percy exactly how I pictured him in the books). He’s got talent, and can get into those emotional roles very well, like in The Perks of Being a Wallflower and Fury. I feel like he would nail Peter’s awkwardness perfectly as well as his humorous side. Basically, I really want to see him as Spider-Man and I always have.

I’m so excited for this to happen, actually. Like, I freaked out extensively last night—ahem, and by that I mean jumped up and down multiple times while I screamed, squealed, and called my best friend. Marvel makes fantastic movies, like the most recent Captain America, the three Iron Mans, and The Avengers. I feel like if a reboot is going to happen again, Marvel will do it right.

So what do you think?
