We've already seen that Electro (Jamie Foxx) will be a colorful villain in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, but he's not the only baddie lurking about. Paul Giamatti was cast as the Rhino, a kind of silly character in the comics who wore a super-powered suit that resembled a rhino (it's grey and the helmet has horns) and smashed stuff until Spidey came to save the day. The Rhino's real name is "Aleksei Sytsevich", and if you want to have a Russian bad guy, take the visual shortcut and deck him out in a track suit and prison tattoos. Set video has reportedly been taken of a stunt driver sporting this look who is apparently wearing a Giamatti mask. The scene involves a tow truck dragging an Oscorp truck and crashing through police cars.
Hit the jump to check out the video. The film also stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Dane DeHaan, Shailene Woodley, Paul Giamatti, Felicity Jones, Chris Cooper, and Sally Field. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 opens in 3D on May 2, 2014.

Here’s the official synopsis for The Amazing Spider-Man 2:
In The Amazing Spider-Man™ 2, for Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield), life is busy – between taking out the bad guys as Spider-Man and spending time with the person he loves, Gwen (Emma Stone), high school graduation can’t come quickly enough. Peter hasn’t forgotten about the promise he made to Gwen’s father to protect her by staying away – but that’s a promise he just can’t keep. Things will change for Peter when a new villain, Electro (Jamie Foxx), emerges, an old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, and Peter uncovers new clues about his past.
