SPIDER-MAN actor TOBEY MAGUIRE will play the web-slinging superhero a fourth time - just as long as the script is right.
The Hollywood star denied reports that he’s quitting the blockbuster movie series, confirming that plans for the fourth installment of the popular franchise are already in the pipeline.
He says, "They’ll definitely develop a fourth movie and write a screenplay, and I would consider it if there’s a good script, a good story that I felt was worth telling and Sam Raimi was involved and the right cast came together for it."

Legendary Welsh actor SIR ANTHONY HOPKINS’ ultra successful movie career is purely down to luck, he insists.
The Oscar-winning actor - who carved a name for himself with blockbusters like SILENCE OF THE LAMBS and THE REMAINS OF THE DAY - is convinced his acting skills pale in comparison with other legendary thespians.
He says, "Most of it was luck. I’ve never really considered myself as a great actor at all. I look at my contemporaries in the London theatre and they’re much more skilled than me; people like Judi Dench. I’m just a kind of fluke."

US Republican officials accidentally sent voters postcards advertising a sex line phone number.
The New York state lawmakers planned to reinforce their strict anti-crime stance by giving constituents a hotline number to ring which warns them about sex offenders in the neighbourhood.
However, the number they printed on the cards was actually for a phone sex line.
Republican spokesman Ed Ward admitted: "Apparently there was an error in the phone number. Instead of the 1-800 code printed on the postcards, the number should have begun 1-888." When voters rang the number, they were shocked to hear a voice saying: "Hey there, sexy guy. Welcome to an exciting new way to go live, one on one, with hot horny girls waiting right now to talk to you." Two years ago, the US Justice Department accidentally mailed out the same number.
