More speculation winds up as they need to secure their lead before the Spider-Man remake starts filming before the year is out, and he just might be announced at Comic Con this year as the powers that be review screen tests for potential Parkers.

Get the Big Picture reports the new shortlist based on who was being reviewed.

We do know that director Marc Webb and the studio has its favorites and Deadline says their screen tests were viewed on Friday. Jamie Bell, Anton Yelchin, Aaron Johnson, Andrew Garfield, Logan Lerman, and Alden Ehrenreich have had their turn, and at least two others – Michaeal Angarano and Frank Dillane

Anton Yelchin is an interesting addition to the screentest list, but Logan Lerman was written off as specualtion and rumour. I wonder if the positive reaction to that casting-that-wouldn’t-be was in part responsible for actually having him considered again? It seems he is on that list.

Lerman is a solid young actor, and of all the names on this list I would most like to see him get the role.

The original idea for the remake was to have him younger and spend more time of the new franchise with Peter in his highschool years. While no news contrary to that plan have been stated, there have been some clearly “not highschool” contenders considered.
