Marisa Tomei cast in Spider-Man reboot?
Now that Tom Holland has been cast as the MCU's Peter Parker, it was only a matter of time until Marvel and Sony turned their attention to the supporting cast for the rebooted Spider-Man series. Variety reports that Marisa Tomei is the choice to play Aunt May for the new Spider-Man franchise, though Marvel and Sony did not comment on the casting. Although it's unclear how far along the deal is, Tomei evidently received the offer last week shortly after Holland's casting was announced.
Tomei's acting career spans more than three decades, and her most notable works include “What Women Want”, “Anger Management”, “The Wrestler”, and “Love Is Strange”. She can be seen next in Amy Schumer's “Trainwreck”, and will appear next year alongside Brad Pitt and Christian Bale in Adam McKay's “The Big Short”.
The next couple of weeks may see more major casting announcements for the film, such as Uncle Ben, Peter's love interest (will it be Gwen Stacy or Mary Jane Watson?), the lead antagonist, and similarly important roles.
Holland will be first seen as the webslinger in next year's “Captain America: Civil War” and his standalone film will come out July 28, 2017.
