| Brian Dennehy to play Spiderman! This just in: Brian Dennehy is celebrating after what must go down as Hollywood's most unlikely casting call in living memory. Yes, that's right, 18 stone barrel-chested Dennehy, best remembered for the role of the alien Commander-in-Chief in 1985's Cocoon, is slated to play Spiderman in the superhero's latest scripted outing. Director Sam Raimi said, "I wasn't the one behind this decision, but I would have to say I stand by it 100 percent. Brian has always had a fantastic presence, albeit mainly due to his ridiculous body shape. He has these tiny legs sprouting from an enormous barrel-shaped upper body... it's hilarious!" EDIT: We later found this report to be false. Here is the real scoop |
