It’s official: comedy writers John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein will pen Marvel’s Spider-Man reboot

Here’s what they had to say when asked about writing the Spider-Man reboot.

Daley: We can finally acknowledge that.

Goldstein: We’ve been saying no comment for the last week.

Daley: This is the first time that we can say that we are writing it.

Goldstein: We’re thrilled.

Daley: … He’s a sharp kid and witty and kind of deals with the fact that he’s an outcast and a geek through humor. It is sort of the safety net for geeks like us, so I think we can totally relate to where he’s coming from. As well as the superpowers, which we also have.
