As someone who works in social media, I love it when directors use it to reveal some awesome new stuff. Yesterday, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 director, Marc Webb, went to Twitter to reveal a new “electrifying” set photo that looks like a lot of fun. As we know, Electro, is set to be the main villain in the Spider-Man sequel and as you can see, he was destroying everything on set yesterday. The tweet came with the message, “Day 45. This is what happens when you try to give Electro a ticket.” I wish I had the ability to create that when I get a ticket.
Jamie Foxx is playing Electro and while I prefer him in a good guy role (cough, Django Unchained, cough), it’ll be fun to see how he sparks the audience as this particular bad guy. There hasn’t been any information on the character or the movie itself. So far, Webb and company are keeping things pretty vague which makes photos like this one fun. It also brings 1,000 more questions as we have no idea what’s going on. I kind of like it that way and I hope the marketing for the film doesn’t give too much away when the time approaches.
he Amazing Spider-Man 2, will be in theaters on May 2, 2014. Returning to the film is Andrew Garfield return as Spider-Man along with Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy, Sally Field as Aunt May, and Martin Sheen as Uncle Ben. There will be a lot of new casting as we’ve talked about before that will include Chris Cooper as Norman Osborn, Shailene Woodley as Mary Jane Watson, Dane DeHaan as Harry Osborn, Paul Giamatti as the Rhino, and B.J. Novak, Felicity Jones and Colm Feore in mystery roles. It will hopefully be a lot of fun!
