Rhys Ifans has been cast as the baddie in Marc Webb’s reboot of the Spiderman franchise, which definitely needed a shot in the arm after those three woeful Toby Maguire films. Seriously. They reeked!

He’ll be squaring up on-screen to someone called Andrew Garfield. No. We don’t have the foggiest notion who that is either. We could check but his name is so boring that every time we try to type it into a search engine, we fall asleep.

Anyway, Ifans and Garfield will join Emma Stone in the superhero flick and, while we know who Garfield and Stone are playing (Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy respectively), everyone is being a bit coy as to who the Welshman might play.
