James Franco
Fun fact: James Franco was originally considered for the part of Peter Parker/Spider-Man in Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man. As we all know by now though, that role went to Tobey Maguire and Franco ended up as Harry Osborn.
Truth be told, Franco did well as Osborn, but what if he had actually ended up as the wall-crawler? It would’ve made for an interesting contrast in approaches. Thinking back to Emo Peter in Spider-Man 3, however, maybe it wouldn’t have been such a bad idea to have Franco in the lead there instead. One thing’s for sure: he would’ve danced better than Maguire.
If you still have doubts about Spider-Franco, please take a look at Todd McFarlane’s run in The Amazing Spider-Man circa the late eighties/early nineties. Who looks exactly like Peter in those pages? Franco. It’s like the man was born to be bitten by a radioactive spider.
