Comic-Con 11: The Lizard Arrested, And Not By Spider-Man.

(Via)
So yesterday the Lizard finally got confirmed as the villain of the blockbuster The Amazing Spider-Man during it's Comic-Con panel. And that he is, indeed, is being played by Rhys Ifans. But Rhys was also supposed to be in a weird mood during yesterday's big Spider-man panel in Hall H. It just came out why he was so closed, and the truth is more horrifying than anything that Spider-Man 3 could show.
The Wrap is reporting that the actor was arrested and charged with misdemeanor battery for shoving a female security guard either before, during or after the panel last night.

"Ifans, who smelled of alcohol, became irate when a member of his entourage was unable to enter the hall for lack of proper credentialing," says the site. "He shoved the guard, and was allowed to participate in the panel, but the guard subsequently made a citizen's arrest."

Ifans, who turned 44 on Friday, is said to have berated the security staff and even the U.S.A. "But according to him, the U.S. sucks and he doesn't want to come back," Brown added.

You really can't make this up. I heard Thor, Spider-Man, Iron Man and Thor were on the scene pretty fast. But cos-players can only do so much.
