Denis Leary in Negotiations for 2012 Spider-Man Reboot


According to Heat Vision, Denis Leary is in negotiations for the role of Captain George Stacy, the father of Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone), in Marc Webb’s 2012 Spider-Man reboot.  George Stacy was a police captain in the original Amazing Spider-Man as well as a supporter of Spidey’s good deeds; James Cromwell played the character who was briefly featured in Spider-Man 3 (although he and his daughter were superfluous to the story).

Leary would join Andrew Garfield (Peter Parker/Spider-Man), Rhys Ifans (rumored to be playing Curt Connors/The Lizard), and Stone. Martin Sheen and Sally Field are in negotiations to play Uncle Ben and Aunt May respectively.
