Without a doubt, J.K. Simmons' performance as J. Jonah Jameson in the first Spider-Man trilogy made him one of the most perfect castings in superhero cinematic history. There were plenty of fantastic performances in The Amazing Spider-Man saga but Jameson was sorely missed; he was only mentioned in one scene, and that was as an easter egg. With Garfield seemingly gone, then every character in Marvel's Spider-Man will be recast. Yet the love of Simmons' performance means that his return as Jameson would be very welcome. After all, the Bond franchise has done it repeatedly with the supporting MI6 cast, and no one complained there. J.K. Simmons has recently hinted that a return might be on the books and would "absolutely" play Jameson again if asked. Surely this seems like a done deal?
A writer for Whatculture since May 2013, I also write for TheRichest.com and am the TV editor and writer for Thedigitalfix.com . I wrote two plays for the Greater Manchester Horror Fringe in 2013, the first an adaption of Simon Clark's 'Swallowing A Dirty Seed' and my own original sci-fi horror play 'Centurion', which had an 8/10* review from Starburst magazine! (http://www.starburstmagazine.com/reviews/eventsupcoming-genre-events/6960-event-review-centurion) I also wrote an episode for online comedy series Supermarket Matters in 2012. I aim to achieve my goal for writing for television (and get my novels published) but in the meantime I'll continue to write about those TV shows I love!
