Also, I don't love the Butterfield casting, but it makes sense because he's like 18 or 19. All the images I've seen are him younger, but here he is now





Ok, not terrible as Pete. More HS geek like he really was.

When it was down to 5 people, I preferred  Nat Wolff from the Fault in our Stars or whatever




Looks like he'd be funny and looks more like Pete to me. Either way, they're going to have to get whoever they have play Pete buff up.

"Puny Parker" is what comes to my mind, and I think it's what is needed. The Avengers have enough brawn already that I don't mind Spider-Man being the scrawny agile guy he's meant to be. Maybe it's just me, but I don't think "buff" when I think of Spider-Man. Lean & toned, yes, but he's supposed to be 50 pounds smaller than Tony Stark (whose armor is responsible for the heavy lifting).

Anyway, I didn't see The Fault in our Stars (nor will I), so I don't know what advantages he may have over Butterfield other than the correct eye color. What I do know is that Orson Scott Card finally approved an Ender's Game movie after waiting 30 years for an actor with Asa's combination of youth and intelligence, which is a ringing endorsement in and of itself. And if he can't pull off the timing and wit needed while he's wearing the mask, I hope they have the sense to hire a voice actor. Garfield was a great Spider-Man and an awful Peter, and I think Asa is a perfect Peter. We just have to wait to see how well he pulls off Spider-Man. (Get it? "Pulls off"? Civil War joke? Aaaah)
