Garrett Gonzalez Morris (born February 1, 1937) is an Americancomedian and actor. He was part of the original cast of the sketch comedy program Saturday Night Live, appearing from 1975 to 1980. Morris was a church-choir singer from his youth, trained at the Juilliard School of Music, and graduated from Dillard University in 1958. Early in his career, he soloed with the Harry Belafonte singers. He performed in a number of Broadwaymusicals, including Hallelujah, Baby! and Ain't Supposed to Die a Natural Death. He also appeared as a high school teacher in the 1975 film Cooley High. He had a small role as a police sergeant in The Anderson Tapes (1970). Morris also lived in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where he worked as a postal carrier.
Despite David Koepp being credited as the 2002 writer, he only did the early draft for it as it was rewritten by Alvin Sargent & Scott Rosenberg. David Koepp's original script was WAY different. While they are similar dialouge and scenes like the opening lab, Peter waking up to school and fight flash, Norman talking to the mirror, the parade, the dinner and climax on the bridge, they are all executed differently. For one, Peter leaves the lab at night, the fight with the Carjacker is in a factory rather than a warehouses, more scenes with Jamison, no Brant nor Hoffman. Doc Ock was a secondary villain. There's no graduation scene, additional scenes with Peter and Aunt May as he moves out, it was set in the winter after Uncle Ben died and Peter gets the traditional suit, the parade is not in Time Square, the dinner scene is followed by this scene with the cut be discovered by a handshake with Norman, and because Goblin attacked Aunt May, Peter let's out his rage towards MJ and burns his suit with the next morning be the climax in a foggy winter morning with Harry and MJ be bait for Norman/Goblin. He kidnaps MJ as Peter buys a new advanced suit and MJ is the one who blows up Goblin's glider and he doesn't die either but ends up arrested. It was arguably better than what we got instead. He even makes his suit more comic accurately with drawed on webbing and logo, white mesh for eyes with Ditko shaped eyes and colors described as blood red and midnight blue.
