File:Spider-Man 4 Mysterio Directed by Sam RaimiTrailer

Description
My eighth trailer for the unproduced film Spider-Man 4 showcasing another of the film's potential villains.

Spider-Man 4 was the proposed sequel to Spider-Man 3. There were a number of different rumours and ideas for this film, including the Lizard, Vulture, Black Cat, Carnage, a Venom spinoff, and even an early suggestion of a Sinister Six film. This is my re-creation of the film, using some of the proposed actors and characters.

I didn't initially intended to make this trailer, I thought I would have been done with Spider-Man 4 by now. However, for a number of reasons, I felt really needed to make this video.

Back when Spider-Man 4 was still in pre-production, Bruce Campbell, a long time friend of director Sam Raimi had been one of the proposed members playing “an important role”. While his exact role was never confirmed, the persisting rumor is that Campbell would have played the villain Mysterio.

More recently, the presence of Mysterio in Spider-Man 4 was confirmed by the release of a number of concept art for the unproduced film. In these pictures Mysterio can be seen being apprehended and unmasked by Spider-Man. Mysterio's unmasked face even somewhat resembles Campbell.

Long time visitors to my channel have probably seen the Bruce Campbell cameos I included in everyone of my Spider-Man 4 videos. It began mostly as a joke, but after teasing people six times, I felt I owed them some form of payoff. I don't know how important a character Mysterio would have been in the final film, a number of lesser villains were expected to cameo as part of a montage of recent Spider-Man victories. But I really wanted to see what a Spider-Man film with Mysterio as the central villain would look like.

I feel that Mysterio has a reputation as an unthreatening villain and has been the butt of quite a few jokes, mostly due to his superpower consisting of pretending to have superpowers. However, if given the chance, I feel a villain devoted to deception and manipulation would make an entertaining antagonist.
