Five Actors Who Can Replace Andrew Garfield In The Next Spider-Man Film--Report

The buzz has it that Andrew Garfield has been booted out from the "Spider-Man" series. The recently hacked Sony emails have reportedly revealed that Marvel may take over the popular franchise and may decide to cast new actor for the titular role. There is a major speculation as to who will play Peter Parker, when the popular franchise will return to the screen. Russ Burlingame of Comicbook has shortlisted five actors who can replace Garfield as Spiderman in "The Amazing Spider-Man 3." Lets take a look.

Anton Yelchin could play the role of Parker. Best known for his role in "Star Trek," the actor reportedly possesses some brilliant acting skills. He rose to fame with the Steven Spielberg miniseries "Taken." He played the popular role of Jacob Clarke in the series. According to the Burlingame of Comicbook, Yelchin is just 25-year-old and his boyish charm may come handy while playing the younger version of Spidey.

Robbie Amell is known for playing Firestorm on the "The Flash." Though the chances of him playing the full-fledged superhero character on big screen are less, his gaunt look can work in his favour. He will reportedly look nice as the college going Peter Parker. Moreover, he is as charming as Toby Maguire, as per the website's report.

Ansel Elgort has proved his acting prowess by playing a cancer patient in the popular teenage film "The Fault in our Stars." The actor is already riding high on the popularity charts and his boyish charm would be an added advantage. Tobey Magurie could very well step back into the shoes of Spiderman, says Russ Burlingame of Comic Book. The actor is a known face, when it comes to Spiderman movies and he knows the character in and out. His return to the series will also drive casual fans interest.

Drake Bell is reportedly another solid choice for Spider-Man. Even Frederick Crew of Movie Pilot thinks that he is cut out for the role as he already voices Spiderman/ Peter Parker on the "Ultimate Spider-Man" cartoon. If reports are to be believed than Marvel wants to start afresh and Bell could very well be their new Spider-Man.
