John Malkovich is The Spider Man 4 Villain

Its been awhile since we have heard anything about Spiderman 4. Last we heard the film was being dumped when a notice was sent out to production crews to find other work. Clearly Spiderman 4 is definitely happening and it seems that we now know who the villain is.

Badtaste is reporting that John Malkovich let the cat out of the bag during an interview saying he is going to play the VULTURE in Spiderman 4. The Vulture first appeared in Spider-Man #2 in 1963 and was about a man ( Adrian toomes ) who invented his own anti-gravity pack and donned a costume with wings and vulture like characteristics. Vulture also appeared in 1967 but it was a different man who stole the suit and uses it to become an air pirate. Spiderman 4 was originally slated for a May 6th 2011 release but at this point that is very much up in the air.
