The web-slinger will come back to his home brand thanks to a new deal with Sony, and it looks like Marvel will look to play out Spidey's origin story for the umpteenth time.
With The Amazing Spider-Man's Andrew Garfield out of the picture (see video below), IGN reports that the MCU is planning on casting someone much younger than the 31-year-old Brit.
As the studio seeks to "put the character back in high school" to allow a young Mr. Parker to "spend more time in the setting and explore his awkward relationship with other students while fighting crime out of the classroom," IGN reported that Teen Wolf's Dylan O'Brien and Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters' Logan Lerman might be on the casting radar.
Both O'Brien and Lerman are currently 23 years old, each with young looks that continue to land them teenage roles.
It is believed the new Spider-Man will make an appearance in one early Phase 3 film before moving on to his own film in 2017.
