‘Spider-Man 4′ Set for 2011

Whats up up with this? I thought they were not going to make anymore of these Spidey movies.

“Spider-Man” producer Laura Ziskin revealed that the fourth installment in the “Spider-Man” series is tentatively scheduled to arrive in May 2011. [via LA Times]

In remarks Thursday to theater owners from California and Nevada, Ziskin said there was no finished screenplay, but that she and Sony Pictures were hopeful “Spider-Man 4″ could be ready in three years’ time.

The first three movies comprise one of the most successful franchises in modern Hollywood history, grossing a combined $2.5 billion worldwide. Neither star Tobey Maguire nor director Sam Raimi is yet committed to work on the next installment. But Sony has paid Marvel to renew its rights.
