Actor Robert Pattinson seems to be the favorite to replace Tobey Maquire in the role of Peter Parker in the upcoming sequel of Spider-Man, “Spider-Man 4”. The movie will focus on the superhero high school years and who’s better than Robert for that role? If the movie producers want to captivate a younger audience, there are only two choices Rob or Taylor Lautner! And Taylor is already set to become Max Steel!

According to OK!, Michael Cera and Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford have also been considered for the role. Meanwhile Robert is busy shooting “Bel Ami” and the last movie of the Twilight Saga, “Breaking Dawn” should also be filmed in 2010.
