Rhys Ifans Reinvents Villain Role in The Amazing Spider-Man
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Universal, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Remakes, Casting, Celeb News, Filmmaking, Upcoming Releases,
Rhys Ifans is a "new" type of villain in The Amazing Spider-Man. The Welsh actor takes on the role of Dr. Curt Connors and his evil alter-ego The Lizard in the film, and director Marc Webb says he's done a "fantastic" job of bringing something different to the franchise.
"I can tell you this much - it's a new villain, something we haven't seen before and villains help define the story in a very specific way. Marvel villains - and Spider-Man villains in particular - are rich and complicated and interesting and Rhys has done just a fantastic job in translating that and there will be a lot of new things to explore for the fans. They're tragic in the Greek sense, meaning it's a competing idea of what's good. They're not just guys, they're people trying to do good or to do the right thing and on that journey that effort becomes subverted or manipulated or it sours. It makes for a much more compelling adversary," said Webb.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Paramount, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Casting, Upcoming Releases,
It takes a strong man to assume the title of Thor…and an even stronger man to wield that hammer. That is where Chris Hemsworth comes in.
In this picture, the actor who recently played George Kirk in Star Trek - and will play the Jed Eckert character in the Red Dawn remake - shows off the forearms will get him through Thor (and The Avengers).
