Interesting choice…

…Marc Webb to direct next ‘Spider-Man’.
LOS ANGELES ñ Marc Webb has caught the job of “Spider-Man” director.
Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios announced Tuesday that the “(500) Days of Summer” director will helm the next “Spider-Man” film following the departure of Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire, the director and star who worked on the previous three Spidey films. The fourth installment is set for a 2012 release and will focus on a younger version of the superhero.
Webb said in a statement he was not taking over the series from Raimi but instead wanted the “opportunity for ideas, stories and histories that will add a new dimension, canvas and creative voice to ‘Spider-Man.'” Webb previously directed music videos, including Green Day’s “21 Guns” and The All-American Rejects’ “Move Along.”
