If Stan Lee has his way, Spiderman will stay white and straight.
E! News caught up with the Marvel superhero's co-creator at the premiere of Ant-Man last night to get his take on a recently leaked studio memo that insisted Peter Parker/Spider-man always be Caucasian and straight. Lee said, "The only thing I don't like doing is changing the characters we already have." He added, "For example, I'd like Spider-Man to stay as he is, but I have no problem creating a superhero who's homosexual. I have no problem with having a black one, a Latino one, a Chinese one, anything?the whole world is our playground. The whole world has heroes we can draw from.
"I'm just not too happy changing what has already been established,"
Stan Lee has spoken.
