Who Should Direct The Amazing Spider-Man 4? Marc Webbs web-shooting days have an end in sight. The filmmaker responsible for the first two Amazing Spider-Man films will be back for the third movie in the series, but not the fourth. He confirmed as much in an interview with The Daily Beast, saying that he wants to be involved in Amazing Spider-Man 4 as a consultant, but not as the director. Ive had so much fun doing it, he said, but after the third movie, itll be time to find something else. Given that The Amazing Spider-Man 3 still hasnt even entered production, losing Webb is a future problem — but not that far into the future. Its worth wondering who could replace him when the time comes. With that in mind, here are a few candidates wed want to see behind the lens for The Amazing Spider-Man 4. Paul Feig Hes responsible for some of the funniest movies of the past few years: Bridesmaids and The Heat. In the latter movie, he showed he knows his way around a fast-paced action movie, without sacrificing laughs along the way. And if it opens up the door for Melissa McCarthy to do a gender-swapped J. Jonah Jameson, then I am all for it. Drew Goddard Goddard is already attached to write and possibly direct Sonys planned Sinister Six movie; the studio should consider refocusing Goddards efforts on a fourth Spider-Man movie. His previous directorial outing, Cabin in the Woods, proved the mans sense of humor and his eye for high-flying thrills and action. Hes the perfect pick to tackle a Peter Parker flick. The Russo Brothers Not to steal them away from Captain America, but Joe and Anthony Russo would kill it on Spider-Man. Their work on comedies like Community and Arrested Development show their ability to handle the levity of Peter Parkers world, but Captain America: The Winter Soldier will cement their status as action all-stars. If they want to expand their work in the Marvel Universe, this could be the spot. Joseph Gordon-Levitt Hes directed before. His debut feature, Don Jon, was energetic and stylish, bright and punchy. JGL is set to flex even more muscles as a director, assuming his plans for a Sandman film come to fruition. By the time hes done there, hell have more than enough experience under his belt to tackle a Peter Parker tale. And hey, if Andrew Garfield is sick of the role by then, I can think of worse substitute Spideys than Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Andrew Garfield In a perfect world, Garfield continues on with Spider-Man. The actor clearly loves the character and his legacy and what he means to viewers all across the globe. With that passion in mind, and with three films of experience to his name, Amazing Spider-Man 4 could be an interesting place for Garfield to swing at the wall-crawler from a different angle — namely, as a director.
