In yet another edition of, “Everything we hear about ‘Spider-Man 4’ is true!” UGO reports that Julia Stiles has been taking meetings with people! Behind the scenes of the web-slinging sequel!
Stop the presses and also stop the desperate, “XYZ actor met with XYZ producer.” This is Hollywood, it’s a business, this happens like breathing and is normal (also people just take meetings sometime to meet one another, SHOCKING, we know). But obviously, what we’ve seen so far — Rachel McAdams saying, “wtf?” and some British actress writing on a bathroom wall how she breathed air next to someone who met Sam Raimi — the Internets are desperate to one-up themselves with careless rumormongering.
Anyhow, this could mean she’s a candidate to play the villainous Black Cat, which places her in competition with scores of actresses in young Hollywood. If Stiles does get the role, she’ll be joining Kirsten Dunst and Bryce Dallas Howard in Spidey’s Horrid Harem of Homely Harridans! Excelsior, True Believers!
