Anton Yelchin Cast In New Spider-Man Reboot?

Man, if we could only harness the energy of Marvel movie casting rumors, we wouldn't need offshore drilling. ONTD is reporting that Peter Parker also-ran Anton Yelchin impressed the Spidey powers-that-be enough that he's been cast as Peter's best friend and sometime nemesis Harry Osborne. For the Lincoln-had-a-secretary-named-Kennedy-and-Kennedy-had-a-secretary-named-Lincoln trivia buffs among you, that's precisely how James Franco got cast as Harry in the original Spider-Man waaaayyyyyyy back in 2002 (Gosh, did we even have movies back then?). ONTD's only source on this, though, is IMDB, so take this news with as much salt as your physician will allow. [ONTD]
