The Cinema News For 1/11/10: Maguire And Raimi Are Out For Spiderman 4

But with how bad Spiderman 3 was, should there really even be a fourth one?

Tobey Maguire is out as Peter Parker and Sam Raimi won't be returning as director when "Spider-Man 4" hits theaters a year late in 2012.

Sony Pictures said in a statement Monday that the movie was supposed to hit theaters in 2011 but has not yet gone into production amid rumors of trouble on the set.

Raimi said his work on the previous "Spider-Man" films was the experience of a lifetime, but acknowledged the studio was heading in a "new direction."

All I know is that it will take a lot to convince me to see that one.
