Sequel Summer 2007 | Spider-Man 3

Film: Spider-Man 3
Stars: Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, James Franco, Thomas Haden Church, Topher Grace and Bryce Dallas Howard
Where We Left Off: Spider-Man kills villain Dr. Ock; Peter Parker once again tells Mary Jane that they can’t be together; Harry Osborn gets a visit from his dead dad demanding that he avenge his death; Mary leaves her fiancĂ© standing at the altar and chooses . . . Peter!
The Skinny: Spider-Man’s back, and this time he’s Black! (Well, at least his suit is.) Peter’s life seems to be coming together; he’s got his girl, a potential new position at The Daily Bugle, and love from the citizens of New York. But it is just the calm before the storm. Soon, he’ll have to face multiple enemies, and he will have to reach deep inside himself to free the compassionate hero he used to be if he is ever to conquer the darkness within and face not only his greatest enemies, but himself.
Total Gross: $777.2 million – $403.7 million for Spider-Man and $373.5 million for Spider-Man 2.
Black Quotient: Blank
Prediction: Director Sam Raimi, Maguire and Dunst have all said that this will be the final Spider-Man film for them together. The MOST anticipated film of the summer, Spider-Man 3 easily will be the highest grossing of the series and very well could be the top-grossing film of the summer. My guess is $500 million, domestic, for Spidey. (May 4)

This feature also appeared on BET.com.
