Sony is currently hosting an ebay auction in which the winner will be given a walk-on roll in Spider-man 4. On top of that, the ebay listing claims the winner will get the following:
- A visit to the set of Spider-Man 4 (one shooting day. Location of visit will be determined by Sony Pictures based on scheduling of visit
- A meet and greet with the cast (1 hour)
- A walk-on/ extra role in the film for the auction winner only( role and length of screen time to be determined by Sony Pictures)
- Trip to the New York premiere (location of American premiere may be changed at Sony Pictures’ discretion)
- Designer outfits to wear to premiere for winner and guest from top designers (designers to be chosen by Sony Pictures)
- Winner and guest may keep the outfits
- Winner and Guest will walk the premiere’s red carpet
The current bid is up to $5,100. And all you have to do is sell your soul to Sony.
Personally, I think that's a helluva lot to pay to get a tiny extras role in Spider-man. Sure, the proceeds of the sale will go to the Stand Up To Cancer charity, but still, just think of the emotional price the winner will have to pay. Sam Raimi will most likely force the winner to dress all emo to be emo Peter Parker's new emo friend to mope around and go to jazz bars with.
Think of the embarrasment you will have to endure once the film comes out and people realize how horrible it is. You'll forever be known amongst your friends as "the douche who payed $5,000 to be in a shitty movie".
Although, now that I think about it, you do get to meet the cast. So technically it's possible that you could befriend Kiersten Dunst and then score some blow from her. That might be worth five grand.
