Zooey Deschanel to star in Spider-Man 4?



Hollywood starlet Zooey Deschanel is being lined up for the role of secretary Betty Brant in the forthcoming Spider-Man reboot.

The actress-and-singer is being pursued by director Marc Webber to play the role of Brant in the Spider Man 4 starring Andrew Garfield as the web-slinging hero, as he believes she "fits the bill" of the sexy secretary, reported Contactmusic.

"Betty was a minor character in the previous Spidey movies but Marc has big plans for her. He wants a strong performer to carry the role and Zooey fits the bill perfectly. The role is hers if she wants it," said a source.

The role of Brant has previously been played by Elizabeth Banks, who starred in the first three movies feature Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man.

The forthcoming movie has a number of big names attached, including Sally Field, Rhys Ifans and Emma Stone.

Deschanel, 30, made her acting debut in 1998 TV series Veronica's Closet, but has since starred in a number of successful films, including Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and 500 Days of Summer.

She also performs with her band She & Him and models for make-up brand Rimmel.
