While talking with Now Playing Magazine, director Sam Raimi revealed some details regarding one of the villain's in the next Spider-man film..

"What I did was, when I worked on the story with my brother Ivan, I determined what journey I felt was most important for Peter Parker to take," he says. "He's a young man so this is a coming of age story and he's on a journey to becoming a more responsible adult - in each of the movies. And I tried to determine with my brother which human faults would be displayed in this particular story that Peter Parker would have to exhibit, and then recognize that he had that fault, and then try to grow and develop as a human being as somebody who could overcome that fault. So once [we] determined Peter Parker's journey, we tried to determine a villain that best presented some aspect of that fault so that he could literally stand in the way of the growth of Peter Parker."

A lot of fans have high hopes that the villain in Spidey 3 will be Venom, a more modern foe for the wallcrawler than the first two films' Green Goblin and Doc Ock. Of course, Raimi isn't saying whether we'll see the symbiote-suited Venom in the next film or not, but he does explain that the choice of villains also comes down to a balance between character and the cool visual aspect that modern special effects allow (and that would surely make for an amazing Venom, by the way).

"Absolutely we wanted to have a villain not only who would fulfill the character needs but somebody who could entertain the audience on a visceral level and provide great visuals, something we haven't seen before, and create a real challenge and great foe for Spider-Man and his unique spidery, spider-like powers," says Raimi.
