Enough speculation already. Andrew Garfield has been officially cast as the new Spider-Man in Sony's upcoming 3D reboot, due to hit screens on July 3, 2012. The studio released the news via a press release.

The new film will begin production in early December, directed by Marc Webb from a screenplay by James Vanderbilt. Laura Ziskin and Avi Arad will produce.

Garfield (The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus) is one of a few names that have been thrown around to take over the role. The list previously included Josh Hutcherson, Jamie Bell (Jumper), Anton Yelchin (Star Trek), Aaron Johnson (Kick-Ass), Alden Ehrenreich (Tetro) and Logan Lerman (Percy Jackson). But they can stop practicing their web slinging, as Garfield has beaten them all out.

Webb explained his reasoning for choosing Garfield in a statement: "Though his name may be new to many, those who know this young actor's work understand his extraordinary talents. He has a rare combination of intelligence, wit, and humanity. Mark my words, you will love Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker."

He's a pretty good actor and he will not do Spiderman as dead-pan as McGuire. I still feel weird about the reboot so soon, but I suppose if it's a good movie I'm ok with it. I loved the new Star Trek and thought I'd hate it, so I'll give it a chance.

Not saying any of the above fall into this catagory, but anyone who both seriously posts in this thread while hating on soccer in the WC thread is a hypocrite.
