Sony Pictures announced Monday that Rhys Ifans, widely known as a comic actor in such films as Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant’s “Notting Hill,” will co-star as the villain in the Spider-Man reboot due out July 3, 2012.

The studio’s announcement notes that the “filmmakers prefer to not reveal which character Ifans will be playing.”

“What sets the Spider-Man villains apart is the complexity of their relationships with Peter Parker,” said director Marc Webb. “Rhys’ incredible ability to embody both warmth and rage makes him the ideal choice for this character.”
