A hometown friend of actor Chris Zylka recently sent out a congratulatory tweet to him for landing a role in 'Spider-Man 4', and Zylka responded by saying 'thank you'. Comic Book Movie then claimed a source had told them Zylka would be playing Peter Parker's high school bully Flash Thompson in Sony's new reboot that begins shooting next month. That would seem to make sense as Zylka has a resume of playing obnoxious characters, no more so than his surfer dude jock-ass turn in Kaboom as a repulsive character named Thor. Although his resume looks lean, casting him in this small part is a smart move, one of many good castings from Marc Webb... Here's the tweets... As a character, Thompson goes way back to those first Spidey issues and is the stereotypical jock as accurately portrayed by Joe Manganiello in the Raimi movies.Comic Book Movie also have another seemingly legit scoop as a young kid by the name of Stuart Allen has found his audition tape for the role of 'Billy' in an 'Untitled Teen/Action Film" leaked onto the web. Once you get into this clip, it's pretty obvious this is a scene involving Dr. Curt Connor and his son Billy as the transformation into The Lizard begins.
