So we have a new round of drama circling the new Spider-Man casting! A while ago, you must have heard that Marvel and Sony have shortlisted five actors for the web-slinger's role. Then, we came to know that they picked two from the list "“ Asa Butterfield and Tom Holland "“ for auditioning.
Now, there's a new rumor put forward by Latino-Review's El Mayimbe suggesting that Ender's Game star Asa Butterfield has moved away ahead of the actor in the race for the new Spider-Man's role! According to the correspondent, Marvel is in negotiations with the 18-year-old actor's representatives and an official confirmation is just a matter of time!
