Should J.K. Simmons reprise his role of J. Jameson in TASM sequel?

I think he should. Maybe just slightly alter the hair/makeup to distinguish this character from the previous franchise. But J.K. Simmons is spot-on and plays the character perfectly. Why fix it if it ain't broken?

I think it depends on the direction. JK was fantastic, but this film did a good job trying to divert from the campy stuff. Only if JK can play the role slightly more seriously will I say yes.

NO.

This movie is a totally different universe. Nothing should remind us of Raimi.

Yes.

It's been brought up before that Judi Dench played her version of 'M' in two different "continuities" of the Bond films. The same could happen here.

The Amazing Spider-Man

Released: June 23, 2012

Synopsis:

Peter Parker is an outcast high schooler abandoned by his parents as a boy, leaving him to be raised by his Uncle Ben and Aunt May. Like most teenagers, Peter is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today. As Peter discovers a mysterious briefcase that belonged to his father, he begins a quest to understand his parents' disappearance – leading him directly to Oscorp and the lab of Dr. Curt Connors, his father's former partner. As Spider-Man is set on a collision course with Connors' alter ego, The Lizard, Peter will make life-altering choices to use his powers and shape his destiny to become a hero.
