Sinister Six Gets Cabin In The Woods Director Drew Goddard

By Leave a Comment

amazing-spider-man-2-poster7Amazing Spider-man director Marc Webb has said that once he’s helmed the third in the series, he’s planning to leave the franchise behind. However Sony have big plans to create an entire Spidey world, including a Sinister Six spin-off.

Now that movie has a director, as Variety reports that Drew Goddard is close to signing a deal to direct The Sinister Six, a spin-off of its The Amazing Spider-Man franchise. Cabin In The Woods director Goddard agreed to write the super-villain adventure back in December, but it’s only now that he’s concluding negotiations to direct.

It isn’t known exactly known which villains will be included in The Sinister Six, although Sony Pictures co-chairman Amy Pascal recently suggested the major characters will be introduced at the end of The Amazing Spider-Man 2.

The original version of The Sinister Six in the comics featured Doctor Octopus, Electro, Sandman, Mysterio, Vulture and Kraven the Hunter, but there have been all sorts of line-ups for this villainous group over the years.

Sinister Six isn’t the only spin-off in the works, as Sony is also working on a Venom movie.

First Close-up Look At Dane DeHaan As Green Goblin In Amazing Spider-man 2

By Leave a Comment

amazing-spider-man-2-green-goblin-close-upIf you want to be pretty, it would seem that becoming the Green Goblin isn’t the way to go it. Sony has released the ultimate no makeup selfie (but actually a lot of makeup) for The Amazing Spider-man 2, giving us our first up close look at Dane DeHaan after his transformation into the famed villain.

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

Final The Amazing Spider-man 2 Trailer – Jamie Foxx, Dane DeHaan & Paul Giamatti unite against Andrew Garfield

By Leave a Comment


With fans already moaning that they thought there were too many villains in The Amazing Spider-man 2, earlier promos have concentrated on Electro and suggested it would be mainly him Spidey was up against. However this final trailer changes tack by concentrating on the fact it’s not just Jamie Foxx’s electro, but also Paul Giamatti’s Rhino and Dane DeHaan’s Goblin – and they’re all uniting against our hero.

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.

The Amazing Spider-man 2: Rise Of Electro Trailer – Take a new three-minute look at Andrew Garfield & Jamie Foxx

By Leave a Comment


Sony is betting big on The Amazing Spider-man 2, hoping it’s going to be a huge superhero success. With an April 18th UK release set, it’s not long until we’ll get to see it, and to ensure our appetites are suitably whetted, a new, three-minute Rise Of Electro trailer has been released, which you can watch right here.

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.

New Amazing Spider-man 2 Pic Shows Off Dane DeHaan’s Green Goblin

By Leave a Comment

amazing-spider-man-2-preview-pic17
There are some who are already worried that Amazing Spider-man 2 will suffer from the same disease as Sam Raimi’s Spider-man 3 – too many villains. But hopefully they’ll be able to work out having Electro, Rhino and Green Goblin in the same film, especially as Sony is planning to build towards a villainous Sinister Six movie.

Now we can take a new look at Dane DeHaan’s Green Goblin in a new image, which you can see above. He certainly looks suitably deranged. It’s still not known exactly how the bad guy will emerge in the film, as rather than being Norman Osborn, DeHaan is playing Norman’s son, who in the comic only takes over the Goblin mantle after his dad is killed by Spidey. However it appears Amazing Spider-man 2 is passing over Norman’s Goblin completely.

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.

Office Star B.J. Novak’s Amazing Spider-Man 2 Character Revealed

By Leave a Comment

bj-novakBFor a long time it’s been known that The Office star B.J. Novak was part of The Amazing Spider-man 2 cast, but everyone has been keeping quiet about exactly who he’ll play. However now it’s been revealed that he’ll be someone who could potentially have much bigger part to play in future films.

Director Marc Webb has let the world know Novak is playing Alistair Smythe. The character is the son of Spencer Smythe, who in the comics created the Spider-Slayer robots designed to hunt and kill Spider-Man. Alastair eventually took over from his father, becoming Ultimate Spider-Slayer.

Webb tweeted, ‘Almost shot ASM2 in B+W til @bjnovak’s (A. Smythe) promo for his excellent book ONE MORE THING beat me to it: http://t.co/axmFgum6fJ’

Novak has previously revealed that his character works at OsCorp. He also added that he only appears in a couple of scenes in the sequel. However it leaves plenty of potential for the sequels as the movies build to the Sinister Six set of villains, of which Ultimate Spider-Slayer could be a part.

The Amazing Spider-man 2 Extended Super Bowl Sizzle Reel – Enemies unite in almost four-minutes of footage

By Leave a Comment


A Super Bowl ad may only be 30 seconds, but you’ve got plenty more time on the internet, so Sony has decided to really supersize their new look at The Amazing Spider-man 2, offering nearly four minutes of footage from the upcoming movie in an extended sizzle reel.

There’s a lot of great looking footage, including shots of Electro, Rhino and new Green Goblin.

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.

Andrew Garfield Vs. Jamie Foxx In New Amazing Spider-man 2 Posters

By Leave a Comment

amazing-spider-man-2-poster8
There’s been plenty of talk about multiple villains in The Amazing Spider-man 2, but the marketing is certainly selling it as a showdown between Spidey and Electro. That’s certainly true of a trio of new posters that have been released, which you can see above and below.

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.

Spidey Faces Electro In Three New Amazing Spider-man 2 Posters

By Leave a Comment

amazing-spider-man-2-poster6
If there’s something we can take away from these brand new posters, it’s that Electro in The Amazing Spider-man 2 seems to be stuck in one position, as he’s exactly the same no matter where he and Spider are. Presumably in the film he’ll be more active and won’t simply float around with one leg slightly bent all the time.

Other than that they’re pretty cool and suitably comic-infused images, which its nice to see are selling the colour of the movie, rather than following the gloomy Dark Knight inspired imagery other superhero movies have gone for.

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.
