Five names have apparently surfaced for Marvel’s new Spider-Man.
The reporter for The Wrap, who also said he was 95% sure Spider-Man is going to be non-white, is now stating Nat Wolff, Asa Butterfield, Tom Holland, Timothee Chalamet and Liam James are in the mix to play Peter Parker, which are all white actors.
According to the report, Sony is preparing to offer the actors a chance to test for the role, with it said a decision on the new Spider-Man will take place in the next 2-3 weeks.
