ADVENT DAY TEN: To celebrate advent, I’ll be adding new content to this blog every day in the countdown to Christmas; reviews, opinion pieces, short stories… that sort of thing! So make sure you pop back in between shopping, packing presents and nursing a headache.
The Amazing Spider-man, Sony’s reboot of the franchise, is due in cinemas worldwide very, very soon – and I can’t wait!
Superhero Hype has unveiled this brand-new image to tease us.
The film will see Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield) grappling with the development of his super powers in high school. Emma Stone plays legendary love interest, Gwen Stacy, and Rhys Ifans will portray Dr. Curt Connors aka the Lizard.
Andrew Garfield previously played Frank in 2007’s Doctor Who two-parter, Daleks in Manhattan and Evolution of the Daleks.
Far Right: Garfield as Frank.
I remember watching the 2002 film, thinking how unbelievable it all was, but I was so proud. Bought up on the 1990s cartoon, to see a live-action movie paraded in front of millions was just mind-blowing. Now look how huge it is.
The Amazing Spider-man is released in the UK on 4th July 2012.
