But Sam Raimi, who says he&#8217;s &#8220;exhausted&#8221; after seven and a half straight years in the Spidey tunnel, has not yet committed to directing the next one. &#8220;The wheels aren&#8217;t spinning,&#8221; he told me a few days ago during a conversation about the making of Sandman&#8230;Given Peter Jackson&#8217;s feud with New Line over the fate of a big screen &#8220;Hobbit,&#8221; Raimi, a longtime J.R. R. Tolkien fan, seems a natural heir to the middle earth throne. &#8220;I love the book but that&#8217;s all I can say honestly at this point,&#8221; Raimi says. &#8220;I did speak to (New Line boss) Bob Shay once, but I&#8217;m not sure the rights are sorted out yet. It&#8217;s still Peter Jackson&#8217;s movie so it wouldn&#8217;t be appropriate for me to say if I even had intentions. First, an offer would have to be made to me.&#8221; [<a href=\"http:\/\/blog.wired.com\/underwire\/2007\/05\/next_for_raimi_.html#more\" target=\"NEW\">More<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From Wired: In the wake of Spidey 3&#8217;s record breaking weekend, Sony Pictures plans to make more Spider-Man&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[115,4,130,148],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-413","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-hobbit-director","category-hobbit-movie","category-old-main-news","category-hobbit"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1tLoH-6F","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/413","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=413"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/413\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=413"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=413"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=413"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
