While Spider-Man 4 is still waiting for director Sam Raimi to be ready for action, it’s web-slinging star is moving on to something a little bit more indie — a black comedy called The Details.

Tobey Maguire will join Spider-Man co-star Elizabeth Banks as a married couple who, already struggling with issues like infidelity and whether they should stay married, see their lives complicated further by ravenous raccoons burrowing under the sod in their back yard. Their inability to agree with how to dispatch the vicious rodent invasion only causes further mishaps.

Allow yourself a moment to take that all in — from radioactive spiders and green goblins to trying to save a marriage by killing suburban pests. Oh, how the mighty have fallen. The good news for Maguire is that from the looks of it, the Jacob Estes directed film does not appear to have any ‘jazz club’ scenes in which he will have to ‘get his emo on.’ Good looking out, Peter Parker.

If you had to dispatch raccoons in order to save your marriage, how would you do it?
