Donald Glover as Spiderman from IAmDonald.com

I’ve discussed with friends that the downfall of Kirstin Dunst‘s career came when she played Mary Jane in Spiderman, so you might be able to tell what I think of the Spiderman series (lame-o, spiders are gross and Toby Maguire is dorky). However, there is ONE way to make it better. And that is, have better casting choices for this alleged Spiderman reboot. And that is, they need to cast Donald Glover of TV’s hit comedy Community as Spidey himself.

Donald Glover is doing his own PR as he promotes himself as the next Spiderman. While it may have started off as only a joke, if this became a reality it would be AMAZING and I would actually watch it. On his blog/tumbler Glover writes, “I’m putting myself in the running for the Spiderman reboot. I’m actually quite interested to see how far this goes. If this happens, I’ll buy each and every one of you a mini cooper.”
