09.14.09 BRUCE CAMPBELL PLAYS ‘BIG PART’ IN SPIDEY 4
(The Bruce Campbell mammogram machine made preventative cancer check-ups fun and sexy.)
For the record, I hate giving superheroes cutesy nicknames like they’re my frat bros, but I gotta keep these headlines down to one line so there you go. Anyway, Sam Raimi favorite and all-around awesome guy Bruce Campbell recently told Access Hollywood that he’ll have “a major part” in Spider-Man 4, which is set to start filming in January. A fourth Spider-Man isn’t the best idea, but it’s hard to go wrong with more Bruce Campbell (who’s previously had cameos as a wrestling announcer, a waiter, and theater usher). Bruce Campbell is like a cross between Robert Downey Jr. and Patrick Warburton, and I would f’ck both those guys. Wait, what? Who typed that?
No word yet on what role he might play, but might I suggest the obvious? Bruce Campbell should play Bruce Campbell with an evil hand. It would make it awesome and meta-fictional, like JCVD but less Belgian. And with more webbing.

I bet he’ll play Kraven. The would be the bomb.
uh…I mean that would be the bomb.
It better be a big role if they want to have room for both Bruce and his chin.
Maybe he’s just saying the prop department found another wearer for Mark Wahlberg’s prosthesis from ‘Boogie Nights’.
Bubba ho tepid idea. Spiderman wouldn’t stand a chance against Bruce Campbell.
I hope he plays Mary Jane. He’s hotter than Kiki Durst at this point.
If he plays “Smokescreen”, The Mighty Feklahr will shit a Romulan brick.

(junior high flashbacks anyone?)
Chuck Finley?
Bruce Campbell reading his books for the audio versions is a magical experience.
I’m not sure if it’s enough to make me forget the intelligence rape that was Spiderman 3 but who knows.
Look, I just want to say…
*Kanye West grabs the keyboard away*
I’ll let you finish, but I just want to say that Spider-Man 3 was one of the greatest movies ever made
*Kanye West walks off*
Ok, well I just saying that this HAS to be better than Spider-Man 3.
my money is on him playing Mysterio
new up!
Man, I wish they had somehow hit Kanye with some keyboard cat during that broadcast. It would have been justified if you ask me.
BAM needs to do a Bruce Campbell Film Festival. Are you listening BAM? I bet they are big fans of the site. Hi BAM!
Being stranded on an island with he and Chris Isaak would be okay.
I agree with Watanabex. I’ve heard rumours that he is playing Mysterio. That his other 3 roles in the series will be all tied into the character.
Oh, crap. You can tell this came out of Hollywood. “I know I’m a waiter now, but what I really want to be is a super hero. Want to read my script?”
