Spider-Man May Hang Up His Superhero Suit

|

Tobey Maguire is considering hanging up his superhero suit for good after the third film is released next year, according to media reports Thursday.


The Hollywood actor has hinted that Spider-Man 3 may be his last movie in the superhero series.

"Spider-Man 3' might be a good place to stop -- I am not tied contractually to any more 'Spider-Man' movies," ITV was quoted as saying.

"I am not completely closed to the idea of another one if it made sense but I would say the odds were in favor of this being the last one," said Maguire.

The 31-year-old star is keen to pursue more challenging roles and also wants to spend more time with his family. He became a father for the first time last month, after his jewellery-designer fiancée Jennifer Meyer gave birth to a daughter, Ruby Jane.

Tobey Maguire isn't the only major star who wants to quit the comic-book film series.
Actress Kirsten Dunst, who plays Maguire's love interest in the movies, has also suggested that the latest film in the series could be her last. She even mentioned aspirations to go back to university.

"I'm not the type of actress who does movie after movie," said Dunst.>

I wouldn't be surprised if Tobey, Kirsten and Sam Raimi all bolt from the franchise after No. 3, and I could hardly blame .. they've all been great so far, but three is enough to me
