Spidey confident over Spiderman 4Tobey Maguire doesn't think Spider-Man 4 has become a tangled mess. The 34-year-old star of the web-slinging superhero franchise said preproduction snags aren't dampening his mood about the fourth instalment.
The next Spider-Man film had been scheduled to swing into theatres on May 6 2011, but that seems unlikely now that Thor - another big-screen Marvel superhero adaptation - has hammered out the same release date.
Maguire, who has played Peter Parker in all three films, said the plan is to still release the movie in 2011, but wasn't more specific about the date. Whatever happens, he's enthusiastic about Spidey's future.
"Not only do I have specific ideas, but the ideas are evolving on the page," he said.
"It's all happening right now. It's all sort of coming together. It's very exciting to me.
"I think the evolution of the character is really exciting, to be rooted in the history of what we've done already and to have a continuity, yet have a progression or evolution."
After glowing reaction to the first two chapters, critical response to 2007's Spider-Man 3 was so-so.

“Working on the Spider-Man movies was the experience of a lifetime for me. While we were looking forward to doing a fourth one together, the studio and Marvel have a unique opportunity to take the franchise in a new direction,” Raimi, who directed all three instalments of the Spider-Man franchise, said.
