David Koepp, the writer behind Spiderman has begun negotiating with Columbia Pictures to write the script for a fourth installment of the studio’s most lucrative franchise. The second and third installments of Spiderman were written by Alvin Sargent.
The franchise would appear to be in good hands as Koepp’s script played a significant role in creating the box office hit that was the original film. The writer has also recently finished a draft of the fourth Indiana Jones movie which was good enough to get Spielberg, Lucas and Ford to agree to it.
However if a fourth Spider-Man movie is to be made, new deals will have to be made with the principal players such as Tobey Maguire, Kirstin Dunst and James Franco, as well as Raimi who directed the previous films. The studio would release the sequel in 2009 or 2010.
