The new “Spider-Man” movie is being spun, with a director and an opening date nailed down. The director is Marc Webb, who helmed last summer's indie hit, "(500) Days of Summer." The premiere date is July 3, 2012. But the question most people want answered remains a mystery: who’s going to take over the tights from Tobey?
Since Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst will not be returning to this installment of the film franchise, which is an origin story, the hunt is on for a new leading man. According to The Hollywood Reporter, director Marc Webb has started to narrow down the casting list.
And the final five are…(drum roll please)….
1. Jamie Bell, who first made a splash in “Billy Elliot,” his film debut from 2000. He is also scheduled to star in “The Adventures of Tintin” for director Steven Spielberg.
2. Alden Ehrenreich was discovered in a bat mitzvah video, of all things, by Steven Spielberg, of all people. Ehrenreich has already starred in Francis Ford Coppola’s “Tetro” and has a role in Sofia Coppola’s upcoming “Somewhere.”
3. Frank Dillane played the young Tom Riddle in the last Harry Potter film. And that’s it. Well, he would certainly fulfill the “Unknown To Play Spidey!” headline.
4. Andrew Garfield appeared in Terry Giliam’s “The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus” and in the British “Red Riding” trilogy. He’s the oldest actor of the bunch, at 27. Too old to play young Spidey?
5. Josh Hutcherson is on the other end of the age scale, the youngest of the group at 17. His recent credits include “Zathura” and “Journey to the Center of the Earth.” Despite his relative youth, he’s perhaps the most experienced of the actors in contention for the role.
Who gets your vote to don the coveted Spider-Man tights? Do you like any of these finalists, or do you have a candidate of your own in mind?

The reason I think Chase could get the nod is I looked at all the other choices and to be honest, they're not the superhero type and they just don't have the Peter Parker feel. You can imagine Chase in this role because he has that mature boyish look which allows him to play the younger Parker like Bale played a younger looking Bruce Wayne and that's key here because most of the actors chosen either are too young to pull off the older grittier mature look and a couple look too mature for the role even though they're young men.
They want a cross medium look and someone who can play this role for the next decade.
Spiderman can't be recast like they are being forced to recast Ghost Rider as it looks like Nicholas Cage won't be able to do the sequel. But with Ghost Rider, Johnny Blaze isn't the only one to be Ghost Rider as they also have the character Danny Ketch.

But there can be only one Spiderman and they don't want to have to recast the role with each movie. Thus, Chase would be a perfect choice and if you check out photo's and vid clips from Youtube of the roles he's played, he definately has the ability to play a more mature character.
Rumor has it that they're planning the third movie in this series to be the now famous Death of Kraven storyline where they want Peter Parker older and... they may actually kill Spiderman in it if only briefly to set the stage for a third trinity of movies... and yet, they are looking forward to the 2020's lol.
it's gonna be kinda hard to believe that he is a total nerd..
when you always see him playing the hot one with the pretty chicks...
In fact, they should take all of the money they WERE gonna use for that and donate it to the producers of the new Batman movie series. Now that's going places!
