J.K. Simmons was easily one of the best parts about Sam Raimi’s original Spider-Man trilogy. His performance as J. Jonah Jameson was perfect, and it was like he leap from the comic book pages.

In an interview on The Howard Stern Show earlier this week, J.K. Simmons hinted at the possibility of a return. “We doing another one or what?” Stern asked towards the end of the interview after mentioning Simmons’ three Spider-Man appearances. “I just heard that we… that’s a possibility”, Simmons replied.
