The Amazing Spider-man 2 Clips Land – Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Dane DeHaan & Jamie Foxx

By Leave a Comment

amazing-spider-man-2-poster9Sony is betting big on The Amazing Spider-man 2, and with the release coming next months, they’ve released the first clips from the movie, featuring a sniper in Times Square with Spidey and Electro, Dane Dehaan & Andrew Garfield skipping rocks, and Emma Stone hiding away with Garfield.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘We’ve always known that Spider-Man’s most important battle has been within himself: the struggle between the ordinary obligations of Peter Parker and the extraordinary responsibilities of Spider-Man. But in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker finds that a greater conflict lies ahead.

‘It’s great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield). For Peter Parker, there’s no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone). But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that threaten the city. With the emergence of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter must confront a foe far more powerful than he. And as his old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, Peter comes to realize that all of his enemies have one thing in common: OsCorp.’

The movie is due in UK cinemas this April, with a May 2nd US release set.

Spidey Gets Out His Hose In New Amazing Spider-man 2 Pics

By Leave a Comment

amazing-spider-man-2-preview-pic14
A trio of new images from The Amazing Spider-man 2 have arrived, thanks to The Times of India (via Superhero Hype), which give a fresh look at Jamie Foxx’s Electro, Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy, as well as a rather unexpected one where Spidey is doing his best fireman impression.

We’re assuming this doesn’t mean he’s joined the NYFD and goes on duty in full costume.

There’s not been too much info released about the exact plot, but we do know he’ll be up against the likes of Electro and Rhino, with suggestions the movie could lead to the formation of the villainous Sinister 6 in The Amazing Spider-man 3. We’ll find out more next month, as a trailer has been promised, attached to The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug. [Read more…]

Cameron Crowe’s latest movie may not have an official title yet, but we already have the first image from the set, featuring Emma Stone and Bradley Cooper showing off their flying skills. The image was poster by Crowe over at TheUncool to mark the 22nd day of the shoot.

Rachel McAdams, John Krasinski, Danny McBride, Jay Baruchel and Alec Baldwin also star.

Cameron Crowe is directing from his own original screenplay.
