The fourth Spider-Man installment has spun a release date of May 6, 2011.
Columbia Pictures confirmed that the latest flick in the comicbook franchise will premiere in both traditional and IMAX theaters on the date, making it the first summer tentpole that year.
It won't be the only comic book movie vying for attention that summer. The May date had previously been occupied by another superhero pic, Marvel Studios' planned launch of The First Avenger: Captain America before it moved to July 22, 2011. Marvel will also launch Thor that summer, on June 17.
Spider-Man 4 reunites helmer Sam Raimi with franchise stars Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst. Gary Ross is penning the script. Boo! Bring back Michael Chabon!
Sounds like summer 2011 will kick ass. Too bad we couldn't say the same for this summer... Are you guys going to be excited for this Spider-Man, or did the emo dance sequence of the third film scare you off for good?
