Sony has revealed a new official website for The Amazing Spider-man along with 10 new photos from the forthcoming cinematic reboot of one of their most popular characters. The website also confirms that this is the first in a series of new films.
From the site: “We’ve always known that Peter Parker was raised by his Aunt May and Uncle Ben and not by his mother and father. In The Amazing Spider-Man, we now find out why. Like most teenagers his age, Peter is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today. In his journey to put the pieces of his past back together he uncovers a secret that his father held…a secret that will ultimately shape his destiny as Spider-Man. This is the first in a series of movies that tells a different side of the Peter Parker story. On July 3rd, 2012, the untold story begins”.
The Amazing Spider-man is released on 3 July 2012 in the US and 4 July 2012 in Australia from Sony.
Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield)
Ever since Peter’s parents disappeared 13 years ago, he has struggled to find his purpose in life. Now, on the brink of unlocking the mystery about what happened to them, he must face the ultimate challenge – one that has been created within the laboratories of Oscorp
Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone)
Smart, charismatic and rebellious, Gwen is the chief intern at Oscorp, a position she takes very seriously. But her life takes a complicated turn as she watches both her boyfriend, Peter, and her mentor, Dr. Connors, undergo radical transformations.
Captain Stacy (Denis Leary)
An esteemed police officer for over twenty years, Captain Stacy is the public face of the NYPD who leads the department’s investigation into Spider-Man’s vigilantism. The only thing Captain Stacy vows to protect more than the city is his family – and particularly his only daughter, Gwen.
Dr. Curt Connors
One of the leading scientific minds, Dr. Connors attempts to engineer a revolutionary regeneration serum to help re-grow limbs and human tissue. His motivations are unclear as to why he elects to be the first human test subject – but what becomes evident is that something goes horribly wrong.
Trying real hard to get interested in the reboot, But it’s just too damn soon to retell his origin. Can we just cram it into a five minute intro and get on with him being Spiderman? Is that too much to ask?
My bet is that he is now a mild-mannered spider who gets bitten by a radioactive man.
maannn to be honest im not really diggin the new suit …
