LOS ANGELES, Calif. --
“Spider-Man 4” will start shooting in January 2010, Bruce Campbell told Access Hollywood at his “Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs” premiere on Saturday.

The actor, who has a long relationship with director Sam Raimi via his lead role in the “Evil Dead” trilogy, made memorable cameos in the first three “Spider-Man” films.

However, he may have a bigger role this time around. Bruce told Access that in the next installment in the superhero franchise, he’s been told he has a major part – but didn’t yet know anything about his character.

The villain – or villains — for the movie have yet to be revealed, though some fans have speculated that Bruce could take on the role of Mysterio – the master of illusion.

The film, the follow-up to 2007’s “Spider-Man 3,” is due in May 2011.

Yeah Bruuuuuce!

I can't wait for this one

Sounds interesting.

I didn'y know a new Spider-man movie was in the works. I thought they were going to give the franchise a rest for a little while longer.

They were, but with the Dark Knight cash cow, everybody is back in the comic book business.

That's what I was thinking.

Since the word is that Chris Nolan is going start work on a new Batman movie any time now, I wouldn't be surprized if Batman and Spidey face off in 2011 for box office superiority.

Woohoo I flove Bruce Campbell(loved him in Brisco County and Lois & Clark). He's got such a huge fanbase, people will go to see him as well as SpiderMan Fans flocking to the movie

I love Campbell! A fellow Michigander, with a chin that could kill!

Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi fans are everywhere, it's really surprising. They're not over exposed like Tom Cruise, but their fans are just as devoted. I really think if they wanted to, the Raimi brothers and Campbell could take over the world. There are so many secret followers... be ready, the codeword will be "Chakram." ;)
