While it’s certainly possible Lerman could do both, that would mean filming on SPIDER-MAN wouldn’t begin until 2011 and would leave Lerman scant time to begin rehearsals and prep for the stunt work in the superhero reboot. It’ll also be interesting to see how the casting of this movie effects the rival THREE MUSKETEER film being developed at Warner Bros. by Doug Liman. Both films were scheduled to begin filming this fall.
Also set to star in MUSKETEERS are Christoph Waltz (who will play the villainous Cardinal Richelieu), Mads Mikkelsen, Milla Jovovich and Orlando Bloom. Summit Entertainment will be releasing the film in the US.
