After the official announcement of the Spider Man reboot, one of the most burning questions within the film community is "who will be the villian?" This question is asked whenever a super hero movie is announced, but finally the question has been answered. Welsh actor Rhys Ifans will portray Parker's Professor Curt Connors. From previous comics and video games, we know that Curt Connors created a serum to regrow his lost arm, but, as all movies go, the supposed cure turns him into The Lizard. Website The Wrap reported the info after the press release on Monday. Parker's reptilian foe will most likely live in the sewers, but his evil scheme is yet to be known. Connors was actually a character in the previous Spider Man films, but he never transformed into a villian, and the actor that played him will obviously not be returning. It's too bad the reboot will feature a villain few people know about, it seems the first franchise used up all of the popular villains. Spider Man will star Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker from The Social Network and Never Let Me Go and Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy from Easy A and Zombieland.The entire article can be found here.
I love Spider Man movies and think Ifans will make a great Professor Connors. Any idea when this movie will hit the big screen?
