Spider-Man 4 may be months away from principal photography, but that hasn't stopped Sony from making preparations for parts four and five, with the company signing up a writer for the franchise sequels.

Zodiac scribe James Venderbilt, who initially penned Spidey 4 (before David Lindsay-Abaire and then Gary Ross were brought into re-write) has been charged with the task of creating two further adventures for the webslinger, with the plan to have interconnected storylines.

According to Variety, the project may have to be a reboot, as their sources report that neither director Sam Raimi nor stars Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst are locked in for further installments. Which begs the question, will audiences want to see a Spider-Man movie without the participation of the main players?

I would actually prefer to see some new faces. I didn't buy tobey mcguire as peter parker, and especially not spier-man. Kirsten Dunst seemed like the right choice, but, in her high school days, MJ was a party girl; and Dunst just played a mre depressing MJ. She was ALWAYS depressed.

Raimi. He did ok with the films, but made them too "kiddy" freindly. The villians were especially under used. Willem DeFoe did play a great green goblin/norman osborne ...

But, I'd happily accept newcomers to the main roles.
 
This series sound like it will be going on for a while. I hope it stays good, and not dull and repetitive.
