Asa Butterfield (Ender's Game) and Tom Holland (The Impossible) are still in the hunt for the role of Marvel's new Spider-Man, but The Hollywood Reporter has four other actors that auditioned for the part today alongside them.

Their sources claim six teenaged actors were brought to Atlanta on Saturday and took part in screen-tests. Two of them we already knew were in the mix: 18-year-old actors Asa Butterfield and Tom Holland, but the other four will come as a surprise.

There's newcomer Judah Lewis, who will appear in Jean Marc-Vallee's Demotion; Matthew Lintz, who will appear in Adam Sandler's Pixels; Charlie Plummer, who appeared in HBO's Boardwalk Empire; and British actor Charlie Rowe, 19, who appeared in Fox's Red Band Society. (Actors' images appear on the banner above in the order they were listed here.)

One source, however, cautioned there is a slim chance that Marvel won't like any of their choices and could keep looking.

Marvel President Kevin Feige, Spider-Man producer Amy Pascal and Captain America: Civil War directors Joe and Anthony Russo, were all on hand for the screen-tests.

The new Spider-Man will make a cameo in Captain America: Civil War when that opens in theaters May 6, 2016 and then appear in his own film on July 28, 2017.
