Another day, another collection of new photos from the set of The Amazing Spider-Man 2. One of the photos is from director Marc Webb‘s Twitter feed, and shows a futuristic room the director has labeled as “the future”. In the future, people just leave their clothes and gun strewn about. At least there’s the digital lock by the door, and hopefully the security has been upgraded from the first film where anyone was welcome as long as they could solve a puzzle (a.k.a. “Bridge Troll Security”).
There’s also some leaked photos from the set, and as you’ll see Spider-Man has a very important call to take. If this is his cell phone, your guess is as good as mine as to where he keeps it on his skin-tight costume. Hit the jump to check out the images. The film stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Jamie Foxx, 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.

The set photos from The Amazing Spider-Man 2 continue to roll in. This past weekend, director Marc Webb gave us an official look at Paul Giamatti as The Rhino, and now we not only have more images of tattooed Giamatti, but Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield) engaging in some superheroics. That bus full of innocent passengers will most likely be saved unless Webb is considering a dastardly twist where Spider-Man lets it fall on the little girl. In all fairness, she is wearing a stupid-looking backpack.

Marc Webb is a talented director, but his true talent may lie in tweeting. Webb has tweeted a number of great behind-the-scenes photos from the set of The Amazing Spider-Man 2. The latest Webb tweets give us a much clearer introduction to Paul Giamatti as Aleksei Sytsevich (aka the Rhino) after a grainy set photo previewed the makeup.
Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Dane DeHaan, Shailene Woodley, Paul Giamatti, Felicity Jones, Chris Cooper, and Sally Field also star. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 opens May 2, 2014. See the full image after the jump.

[If you aren't familiar with the most well-known Spider-Man comic stories, you should probably just stop reading now] Comic book adaptations don’t require strict adherence to the comics. In Sam Raimi‘s Spider-Man, the director took one of the comics’ defining stories—”The Death of Gwen Stacy”—and re-appropriated so that Green Goblin dropped Mary Jane off the bridge instead of Gwen Stacy, and Spider-Man saved his falling love-interest instead of accidentally snapping her neck due to the speed of acceleration being suddenly halted by his web-line. So the question that hangs over The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is if director Marc Webb will follow The Amazing Spider-Man #121-122 (June–July 1973), “The Night Gwen Stacy Died”. New set photos may have the answer.

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.

The deluge of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 set photos continues. Last week, we got our first official look at Jamie Foxx in his non-Electro form, and these unofficial set photos provide more shots of the antagonist and his atrocious hairstyle. I’ll caution that these set photos are moving us closer to understanding the character’s arc and his relationship to Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield), so spoiler-phobes should consider themselves warned. Director Marc Webb has also released a couple of innocuous set photos, and we’ve thrown those in as well.

With production currently underway in New York on director Marc Webb’s sequel The Amazing Spider-Man 2, we’ve seen our fair share of grainy set photos. We hadn’t really gotten a look at anything super revealing, but then last week images surfaced of a very different looking Jamie Foxx as the pic’s villain Electro. The actor was covered head to toe in blue body paint and was sporting some luminous markings on his skin, making for a rather unique take on the comics character. Now that those images are out there, Webb has decided to share some official images of the actor in character as well as our first look at Dane DeHaan as Harry Osborn.

Yesterday, we got our first look at Jamie Foxx as a very blue Electro in Marc Webb‘s The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Today, more set photos have surfaced to show the villain wearing a parka, and it could be part of the costume since the set photos also show co-stars Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone in winter coats. It’s also possible that he’s wearing it to cover up his costume to prevent it from being seen in leaked set photos such as these.

Jamie Foxx blue himself. Set photos of Foxx as The Amazing Spider-Man 2‘s villainous Electro have leaked online, and they are somewhat surprising. Foxx commented on the look of his character back in December saying that the costume would be black, and the filmmakers wanted “to try new things, like a liquid rubber and things like that, and there are all these bolts and stuff in my arms when they are hanging me upside down and trying to figure out what happened.” That still didn’t prepare us for the look of his clearly mutated character. The scene appears to take place before Electro gets his full costume, but the hoodie looks like it has tracking dots to add special effects in post production.

During the development process, director Marc Webb made the decision to shoot the entirety of his sequel The Amazing Spider-Man 2 in New York. While Webb and company will certainly be using the city to their advantage, there’s one place that they can’t exactly close down in order to film for a few weeks: Times Square. As a result, a giant Times Square set has been constructed for what we can only assume is one of the film’s action set-pieces, and now some photos have surfaced online that give us a peek into the location.

Filming is currently underway in New York City on director Marc Webb’s sequel The Amazing Spider-Man 2, and Webb has been keeping fans up to date on the production with regular photo teases on his Twitter account. Though most of them are either of crew members or innocuous pieces of the set, today he shared a picture from Oscorp that reveals that The Office star BJ Novak has a role in the follow-up. Novak has a knack for popping up in unexpected features as he previously nabbed a role in Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds, and it’ll be interesting to see what kind of character he plays in the Spider-Man follow-up.

With the slow leak of images from such highly-anticipated blockbusters as Guillermo del Toro’s Pacific Rim and Marc Webb’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2, we thought we’d group the latest releases together for you in one place. One features a skeleton of a giant monster while the other reveals a uniform from the Ravencroft Institute for the Criminally Insane. I’ll let you guess which one belongs with which movie.
Starring Charlie Hunnam, Rinko Kikuchi, Idris Elba, Charlie Day and Ron Perlman, Pacific Rim opens in 3D on July 12th. Starring Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone,Jamie Foxx, Dane DeHaan, Shailene Woodley, Paul Giamatti, Felicity Jones, Chris Cooper, Sally Field and Colm Feore, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 opens in 3D on May 2, 2014.

Director Marc Webb has revealed the first official image of a character from his in-production sequel The Amazing Spider-Man 2. The filmmaker took to Twitter earlier today to share an image of actor Colm Feore (The Chronicles of Riddick) on set. We don’t know whom Feore plays, but he looks fairly ominous in this photo with a rather official-looking symbol gracing the wall behind him.

We’ve been getting flooded with set photos from The Amazing Spider-Man 2, but the latest one is from the director himself, Marc Webb. Webb has been taking to Twitter to provide snapshots from the production, and today he sent out a photo of the directory for the Ravencroft Institute for the Criminally Insane (i.e. Marvel’s version of Arkham Asylum). This image is a treasure trove of information. First off, “Weapon Pickup” and the interrogation room are right next door to each other, so that’s just convenient for everybody. Secondly, the “Voltage Cells” and the “Medical Inspection Lock-Up” are in the same room? Is this a vital plot point? Does Electro (Jamie Foxx) have a close tie to Medical Inspection? Probably not, but it’s more than likely that Webb knows fans will spot “Voltage Cells” and immediately think of the film’s villain.
Hit the jump to check out the image along with a couple photos of Oscorp, home of leaving doomsday devices out in the open with almost no security whatsoever. The film also stars Emma Stone, Sally Field, Dane DeHaan, Paul Giamatti, Felicity Jones, Chris Cooper and Martin Sheen. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 open in 3D on May 2, 2014.

The first pictures of Emma Stone and Shailene Woodley filming a scene together for The Amazing Spider-Man 2 have surfaced online. Stone portrayed Gwen Stacy, Peter Parker’s main love interest in the first The Amazing Spider-Man, and Woodley was recently added to play Parker’s iconic longtime love, Mary Jane Watson. While it has been said that Woodley’s role will not be as prominent in this film, if the film follows accurately with Spider-Man mythology, Woodley could become Parker’s romantic frontrunner in the planned third film. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 also stars Andrew Garfield, Sally Field, Jamie Foxx, Chris Cooper, Dane DeHaan, Felicity Jones, and Paul Giamatti, with Marc Webb returning as director.
Hit the jump for some speculation about the possible Gwen-MJ dynamic as well as photos of Stone and Woodley on set.
