So, the actor for the villan appears to be cast, but we still don't know who the villan is!

From AICN:

Whoa! Thomas Hayden Church Vs. SPIDER-MAN!!!


Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with a big big break in SPIDER-MAN 3 casting. Over at The Hollywood Reporter they've broken the announcement from Sony that Sam Raimi has cast Thomas Hayden Church as the villain for SPIDER-MAN 3!!!


The villain hasn't been announced yet, but I've heard some pretty strong whispers that it'll be Sandman, but I'm not 100% on that. I love the idea of casting Church now... it falls into the strong, non-star character actor casting of the previous Spidey flicks, but who could he be? He wouldn't make a bad Sandman if that's who's in the movie... Hobgoblin, perhaps? Remember, Hobgoblin wasn't Harry Osborne, Harry later went on to be the next Green Goblin... Surely they wouldn't go with something as cool as Kraven, would they? Mysterio? Doesn't seem like a good fit for Mysterio. What about Eddie Brock? The Venom rumors won't die, but Raimi has said many times that he's not a fan of Venom, so unless Avi is twisting his arm in order to get the huge Venom fanbase frothing at the mouth, then I'd rule that one out. What do you folks think?
 
Thomas Haden Church was talking to Entertainment Weeklyabout Spiderman 3 and which villain he would be playing?

EW: After reminding the world he could really act in Sideways, the Oscar nominee will play an undisclosed, top secret villain in 2007's Spider-Man 3. How about a hint?

THC: "He's a horse of many colors."

EW: There are horses in Spider-Man?

THC: "Let's just say he's an amorphous collection of protons, electrons, and neutrons, of different colors."

It doesnt sound much like Sandman to me!
 
A new rumour on Moviehole.net has stated that the villains for Spider-Man 3 will be Venom and Man-Wolf. As Daniel Gillies is coming back to play John Jameson/Man-Wolf so its safe to say that Thomas Haden Church, who they announced yesterday for a role, will be suiting up to play Venom.
Special-effects worker Tim Phoenix, who worked on Doc Ock for "Spider-Man 2", has been hired to work on both Venom and Man-Wolf for the next sequel. "It's super cool stuff and I am in my element here for these particular creations," he said. "I am living in 'the dream' out here. It is just so surreal."
This new rumour still doesnt confirm anything yet though!
 
Avi Arad has confirmed that the rumours about Spiderman 3 and 4 been filmed back to back are not true!
He also said that Dylan Baker will return for the third film to play Dr. Curt Connors who becomes the Lizard in the comics!
 
On both Chud and Ainitcool they are stating that the rumour about Venom being the main villain is false as they are both stating that Venom will not be in Spiderman 3!
Chud seemed to hint that Thomas Haden Church would be taking the role of William Baker (Sandman)!
 
Ah, this will be interesting. I love both films, but I don't know how they can keep it going without just having enemy after enemy. I mean, spider-man giving up the job in part 2 was a great move, but big things like that can't happen all the time.

will sam ever ditch bloody kirsten dunst? she annoys the HELL out of me!
 
as of with my newly aquired info, spiderman 2 will be focused on venom with slight notion towarRAB another green goblin (harry). from what i have found out, venoms origin wil mirror the comic version; spiderman comes across a living black suit, suit tries to permanantly bond with him, they find a way to take is off, it finRAB eddy brock, viola! venom lives. and i hear tell carnage is breifly shown as a header for the inevidible SM4 along with a mojor role with green goblin 2. and yes, black cat wil be in also along with JJJ's son
 
The official start date for filming on Spiderman 3 is January 2 2006 and it will released on May 4 2007. So still a long wait yet untill we see Spiderman 3!
 
Avi Arad says there may be 4 villains in Spider-Man 3 . "Maybe five", he jokingly adRAB. "Obviously I cannot tell you, but I can tell you that we're on our way to the biggest of the three". I cant wait to see who the villians are now!
 
It's no good saying that 'The villains are blah blah blah'.

The truth is that no one knows yet. At all, except for the people in the production.

However, there's little chance of seeing Venom seeing as Raimi doesn't rate him at all. He's also strictly old school Spiderman, so chances are your Villain is going to come from that run of comics.

But until a script is written (It's still not done, in fact it's just being started, from a story that Raimi and his brother have been working on since Spidey 2 was released) and the reviews for it start coming in - that's the only way you'll know for sure.
 
I hope this doesn't end up being like some of the old Batman movies.

Don't get me wrong I think the villian generally steals the show. Jack Nicholson did this well.

But when 2 or more baddies are used it sort of looks like they're fighting amongst themselves to get screen time.

Michelle Pieffer / Danny DeVito was kinda cool. Jim Carey/ Tom Lee Jones sort of worked. But Arnie / Uma - Hell no.
 
Thomas Haden Church recently was talking about the villain he will be playing in Spiderman 3 however he didnt give much away as he said he was sworn to secrecy. The only thing that he did confirm is that he will be playing a man!
Also he did state has put on some pounRAB as he said he's at 185 lbs right now and he's been working out for four months which is for his part in Spiderman 3!
 
Chud.com are reporting some rumour about the villians for Spiderman 3. If this rumour is true then this is a massive spoiler however nothing has been confimed:

Topher Grace is also playing the Chameleon. See, throughout the film Grace's character will be making moves on Mary Jane, and getting closer and closer, until it's revealed that he's just another disguise the Chameleon wears.
 
Apparently the director or producer said that could just be the end of Harry's anger towarRAB spiderman as he now knows the truth about his Dad.

I can't remember where I read it but it sounRAB like the third one (which will probably be the last) will feature a completely different baddy. I am quite disappointed as to round off the series it should focus on the Hobgoblin story. I wouldn't want him to be the only baddy though as it would make the film too much like the first one. Maybe he should get a small gang of villans to fight with him (like in X-men). They don't all need to have big roles but I think hobgoblin should definately be in it no matter who the other baddies are.
 
This interview with Jay Leno was on last night. Also revealed a number of villians he wouldn't be playing...

The Period - Special power is runing Spidermans punctuation (can also make woman grumpy and irritable once a month).

Gorilla in a Man Suit - Can blend into any office environment or boardroom meeting.

The Centiraffe - Cross between a Centipede and a Giraffe (know as a Giraffepede in Japan).

:D
 
ya, the hobgoblin should be the focus, but definatly venom and carnage should be in as like the 2nd in command. followed by like the shocker and mabey electro. also, definatly they will have him in black costume, i know this cause i happen to have some photos from a pre production peice. if you guys want to see it, e-mail me.

James Franco has been talking about the possibilty of more Spiderman films after Spiderman 3. He said when asked if the third film would be his last "That's what we signed the contract for. I really don't know what their plans are after this one. Everybody signed a three picture contract at the beginning. I really don't know what's happening after. I don't even know what Sam (Raimi, director) is going to do." So it looks like we will have to wait and see what happens after the release of Spiderman 3 in 2007!
 
I don't know how this fits, but all the news going round the film sites is that it will be Sandman who is next major villian.

Quote from AICN -

"Multiple spies at Sony have confirmed that Thomas Hayden Church will indeed be playing SANDMAN. There's a ton of Sandman conceptual art all over the Spidey-offices!"
