The Amazing Spider-Man helmer Marc Webb returns to direct. Alex Kurtzman & Roberto Orci and Jeff Pinkner wrote the screenplay (based on a draft by James Vanderbilt).
Director Webb broke the news via a tweet: "Meet Harry Osborn. So excited to have him on board. @danedehaan." Webb added, "Dane is an exciting and extraordinary young actor and he is a fantastic addition to our cast."
The next Spider-Man film will hit theaters on May 2, 2014.
