RUMOR: Matthew McConaughey Being Eyed To Play 'Norman Osborn' In SPIDER-MAN Reboot?

We'll have to remain sceptical about this because the source is unknown to us, but they have had a few confirmed scoops in the past so it's at least worth reporting as a rumor.

It's grain of salt time! Youtube channel That Hashtag Show are reporting that Matthew McConaughey is being looked at by Marvel and Sony to play the latest incarnation of Norman Osborn for their new Spider-Man flick. These guys haven't broken a lot of scoops in the past, but we now know they were on point with some early Avengers: Age Of Ultron spoilers so this might be worth paying some attention to.

Keep in mind that McConaughey did recently reveal that he'd read scripts from both Marvel and DC in the past and was still open to appearing in a comic book movie, so there's a chance this is just some wishful thinking - but, there's no doubt he'd be a great fit for the role.

What do you guys think? Any truth to this? Sound off in the usual place.
