Marisa Tomei Offered Role of Aunt May in 'Spider-Man'
According to sources, Marisa Tomei is Marvel and Sony's choice for the role of Aunt May, Peter Parker’s guardian, for the new 'Spider-Man' film which is set for release in 2017.
Variety states an offer has been extended to Tomei to play the character, but a deal hasn't been finalised. Sony and Marvel had no comment, which signals a deal isn’t potentially close to being signed, just yet.
The role of Aunt May has previously been played by Rosemary Harris, in Sam Raimi’s movies, and by Sally Field in the two Marc Webb reboot films.
