Bruce Campbell to Return in 'Spider-man 4'?

By: Eddie Jenkins

B-movie actor Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi work together well. Whether it is on the set of an Evil Dead film or Spider-man things just seem to click between the two of them. If Raimi has his way when the fourth installment in the web-slinger’s franchise starts production next year Campbell will return to match wits with Peter Parker.

“I would love to have Bruce in Spider-man 4,” Raimi told MTV News in an interview. ”I haven’t talked to him about it yet, but he’s such a source of humor for me. I love working with the guy. He’s a great and really dedicated actor, as much as we kid each other all the time. I haven’t spoken to him yet, but I hope that he would (be in the film).”

Campbell has made cameos in all three Spidey movies thus far. He has portrayed a wrestling announcer in Spider-man, a doorman that prevented Parker from seeing Mary Jane’s play in Spider-man 2 and a restaurant manager who assists Parker’s ill-fated marriage proposal to MJ in Spider-man 3.

Campbell has played both antagonist and matchmaker, so where can he go in the next installment?

“I don’t know what (his role) would be yet,” Raimi said.

I, like most people, am hoping that Campbell gets a bigger role in either Spider-man 4 or 5. And like most people I am hoping for him to play the dastardly devious special effects wizard Quentin Beck a.k.a. Mysterio.
