Good choice of actor, but odd choice for the villain. I would have expected them to go with a better known character, like Venom. Hopefully, they chose Sandman because they had something specific planned for the story. As long as it's made by the same people as the first two, though, I trust them completely to pull it off with style.
Now the only question is what's going to happen with Green Goblin Junior (Hobgoblin?).
