We can now put a face on one of the villains in the upcoming "Spider-Man 3."

Sony Pictures Tuesday revealed the first shot of Thomas Haden Church as Flint Marko, aka Sandman, on the official "Spider-Man" Web site.

Church is coming off his Oscar-nominated role for Best Supporting Actor in the 2004 dramedy "Sideways."

"That '70s Show" star Topher Grace has also been cast as a villain in the film, pegged for a May 4, 2007, release.

The follow-up to the blockbusters "Spider-Man" and "Spider-Man 2" will again star Tobey Maguire as Peter Parker/Spider-Man, Kirsten Dunst as Mary Jane Watson and James Franco as Harry Osborne.

Based on the iconic comic book character created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko, "Spider-Man" will once again feature director Sam Raimi at the helm.

Released in 2002, "Spider-Man" webbed an amazing $403 million at the North American box office. Its sequel, "Spider-Man 2" snapped up $373 million.
