>“They offered me Spider-Man, the Vulture, and then the head of the studio called me, ‘Oh, John, this is really terrible.’ We had already negotiated. We had accepted terms. I hadn’t signed a contract, but we had accepted terms. It was pretty far along in negotiations. And she said, ‘We’d like the role back. Michael Keaton wants it back.’ And I was like, ‘What the fuck is this?” I’ve never heard of such a crazy thing.’ Then they offered me some tiny scientist in the movie. I was like, ‘No, thank you. Thank you, but no.' I could have sued, but my reps are all cowards. It could also backfire. I mean, I’m not a litigious person anyway. That’s not who I am. I’d rather move on and create my own stuff.”https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/john-leguizamo-odyssey-non-traditonal-casting-spider-man-1236721343/
>>223945870they had to back down after deciding that john was right in crying that latinx actors always get cast as villians
Is this ever not complaining?
Vulture is a lame villain anyway. The only cool ones were always venom, carnage, and hobgoblin.
>>223945870>I hadn’t signed a contract, but we had accepted terms>I could have suedThat would have been funny as hell.
>>223945870He's a whiny bitch, only time I hear about him it's because he's whining.
>>223945870>I could have sued, but my reps are all cowards.Is this the equivalent of "Hold me back bro, I'm gonna kill him unless you hold me back!"
>>223945980Just about to say this. Literally all he does is bitch
>>223945939>the cool ones were the mary sue black spider man (solely bc the costume was popular), his mary sue red edgelord edition and pumpkin man
>i could have sued but i dont understand the law and shit
>>223945939>The only cool ones were always venom, carnage, and hobgoblinIn the comics, maybe. In the movies ? not quite
>>223945939>hobgoblinDon't know what continuity you're pulling from to make that conclusion but Hobo goblin was a whole bunch of wasted potential. Best villains were Venom. Dr. OctopusLizardMysterioand at a push Tri-Sentinel.
>>223945939Big Wheel and Spot are the only cool ones
>>223945870you only hear about roles he didnt get, not the ones where he acts like shit aside from being a john everyman
>>223945915>>223945980He's at the end of his rope. All he has left is Ice Age 12 to get his paycheck. This is his only way to stay relevant.
>>223945870That man is a woman at heart.
>>223945870That's a shitty thing to do, but it was smart. Keaton carried that movie, and I thought Gyllenhaal would carry the 2nd one but it was too shit for even him to salvage.
>>223946384That's the thing, he works constantly. He's never been a leading man film star but he's always in multiple projects overlapping each other.
>>223945870>I could have sued >but my reps are cowards>also I'm not litigious jesus, just pick a lane already John
>>223945939and frank
>>223945870Characters should only be portrayed as actors from their same race, right?
>>223945939Reading comics in the 90s, the only books that I gave a shit about outside of X-Men were the Spider-Man books involving the symbiotes. For my birthday one year, someone got me all 14 issues of Maximum Carnage, and I was the happiest boy in the world.
>>223946964tarantula is a spic
>>223946249Hobgoblin only had potential to waste in the first place because he was cool.
