James Cameron and Marc Webb Meet to Discuss Spider-Man Reboot

Interesting turn of events with the Spiderman Reboot.

Even though director James Cameron said only a month ago that he would not direct the rebooted Spider-Man movie because it would be “a little bit sloppy seconds,” apparently he is willing to discuss the movie with the director ultimately chosen for the job, Marc Webb. According to MTV, Cameron’s producing partner, Jon Landau, confirmed that the two directors met and that the topic of discussion was shooting the Spider-Man reboot in 3-D, a technique Cameron mastered in directing Avatar.

What’s interesting about this meeting is less the fact that Webb sought out Cameron for his 3-D knowledge than that Cameron has long been associated with Spider-Man as a movie property. Cameron drafted a script for a big-screen Spider-Man adaptation for Carolco back in 1991, more than a decade before Sam Raimi‘s Spider-Man broke box-office records and helped to entrench superhero movies as a summer box-office staple. Cameron’s plans were crushed beneath the weight of legal actions over character rights and contract disputes. Carolco and Marvel Comics both declared bankruptcy in 1996 and the rights to Spider-Man, including Carmeron’s script, went to MGM, who later traded them to Columbia Pictures for the exclusive rights to 007.
