Sony Pictures has released a new back-lit lenticular teaser movie poster for Spider-Man 3 to theaters. SuperHeroHype got their hands on an image of this poster and have posted it for our viewing pleasure.
It seems the organizers of SDCC have put up a panel description that pretty much tells us one way or another what will happen to the popular line now that its in Hasbro’s hands. Here’s the description:
2:00-3:00 Hasbro/Marvel: Marvel Legends. Spider-Man Origins. Superhero Squad and much more!— Find out what it’s all about at the first Hasbro/Marvel panel ever! Jesse Falcon from Toy Biz joins Hasbro team members Billy Lagor, Randy Shoemaker, and Brian Wilk. Don’t miss this opportunity to see a sneak peak of what Hasbro has in store for their spring 2007 Marvel line. Room 8
You may remember Jesse Falcon from an interview we linked to here. Hopefully we will get more than just news and see some prototypes or designs of some sort. I also wouldn’t complain about a slightly less skewed Spider-man to Villain ratio in any Spider-man lines they are working on.
Sony Pictures has a press release stating that Apple Trailers will be hosting the first Teaser Trailer to Spider-man 3 at 2:30 PM EST today. It seems as though it has already been leaked onto YouTube, but I couldn’t find the exact one because of so many fan-made trailers. I can’t seem to find a link to this mysterious press release at the moment either, but when I do, I’ll update this post.
I also came across some more pictures from the set here.

iF Magazine spoke with recently resigned Marvel Entertainment head Avi Arad about upcoming film projects he’s working on for Marvel. In additon to breaking news that the next Hulk movie will be a complete “do-over” of the first one, he also says new cartoons for Spider-Man, Wolverine And The X-Men, Fantastic Four, and even Iron Man after that movie is done.
And he clarifies some of this ToyBiz confusion as well:
iF: Switching to toys how do the new HASBRO toy lines look in comparison to the previous TOY BIZ lines?
ARAD: TOY BIZ is very involved in the design of the toys, but the distribution will be through HASBRO. The scale isn’t going to change.
Maybe Marvel Legends isn’t in as much danger as I thought, because Hasbro seems to have no trouble getting mountains of Star Wars, GI Joe and Transformers to market…
