It’s hard to dislike Bruce Campbell, cause it’s easy to enjoy his B-movies, even his comic relief character in the series Burn Notice is nothing short of hilarious. If you haven’t seen the movie My Name Is Bruce where Bruce Campbell as himself is mistaken for his character Ash from the Evil Dead trilogy and forced to fight a real monster in a small town in Oregon, then you need to see it, not only because I guarantee you’ll enjoy it but also because the sequel is happening… Read the rest of this entry »

Halloween is behind us but what the hell…Director Sam Raimi’s classic is going to be re-released in theaters next year. Not those web-slinging friendly neighborhood movies.. I’m talkin’ about THE EVIL DEAD (1981) starring Bruce Campbell covered in blood. It’s going to be a midnight showing.
Screenings taking place around the nation and Canada, and other select theaters. Exact dates and venues will be announced in early 2010… Read the rest of this entry »

Previously we were told that SPIDER-MAN 4 would start filming in February 2010 but Access Hollywood chatted with Evil Dead star, Sam Raimi’s best friend, Bruce Campbell (TV’s Burn Notice) and learned that production may start as early as January.
If you’ve seen all three Spider-Man movies, there’s no way you could’ve missed Campbell’s memorable cameos, more essential to Peter Parker’s development as your friendly neighborhood hero than what usual cameos provide, even Stan Lee’s cameo didn’t give as much impact as Campbell’s 3 little roles (the ring announcer, the usher, and the guy at the restaurant), which brings us to the next big info

Campbell also said that he’s been offered a bigger role in SPIDER-MAN 4 but he has yet to know what that major character is. And fans speculate Campbell might be playing Mysterio which is ranked by IGN as the 85th greatest comic book villains of all time
To get a better picture of how deadly he can be to SPIDER-MAN, Mysterio’s “costume contained boots with chemical smoke ejectors to produce a concealing mist, magnetic plate springs allowing him to leap heights, an acid spray in his gloves, enabling him to dissolve Spider-Man’s webbing, and a one-way helmet with a built-in sonar device that jammed Spider-Man’s spider-sense and allowed Mysterio to see through his mist.” You can read the rest and Mysterio’s background over at Marvel.
But I doubt Campbell gets to play this villain because I think the audiences expect him to be just another comic relief.
As of today, there hasn’t been any official announcement on who the villain’s going to be. Some even said morbius. But either Morbius or Mysterio, Raimi would rather use a caliber actor (Willem Dafoe, Alfred Molina, Thomas Haden Church) or teen’s heartthrob (James Franco, Topher Grace) to play the villain than his B-list friend Bruce Campbell.
