  • Will "The Lizard" Finally Get Lead Villain in Spider-Man 4?

    Spider-Man 4

    Actor Dylan Baker confirmed to UGO that he will again be in the fourth installment of the Spider-Man movie franchise. After three previous appearances as Dr. Curt Connors, the man who becomes "The Lizard" in the comic books, does this mean that he will finally get his shot at lead villain?

    Baker said that he had just gotten his first call concerning Spider-Man 4 that very day, and joked about "just appearing in the background." Whether or not that was a deliberate attempt to mislead reporters is unclear. What is clear is that after the debacle of Spider-Man 3, director Sam Raimi sorely needs to get back to basics, and it would be a crying shame to again overlook one of Spidey's classic foes — and one of our Top 10 Spider-Man 4 Villain Candidates.

      I agree i think lizard should definitely be in...scorpion shouldn't b in it because you would just be starting a whole new direction of the franchise and it would be a origin story and gargan, jameson and the kingpin and smythe would all have to be involved...they have not had the kingpin in one spiderman movie so i do not think scorpion is the way to go...lizard and kraven or lizard with a story line into carnage

      well those were all good villains but what about scorpio. hes a good villiain cause hes in this green suit of a scorpian aka "Gargan" he is a perfict villain cause he was hired by jonah jameson to get a test run on him so he could have the same charateristics like a scorpian to befeat spider man.Anyways his powers is his tail he shoots acid out of his tail n has a blade on his tail he also gyurns on J.Jonah Jameson hes fast strong n i think hed be a better charter in da spider man 4 @ da same time u can add da lizzard then sumhow add carnage in.

      The Lizard and Carnage should be the villans for spidey 4. they said they wanted the sinister six but doc ock died in spidey 2. And they would need to entroduce vulture, electro, kraven, and mysterio. The only villan alive in the spidey universe of the movies is sandman.
