Spiderman 2 Trailer goes Official, Shows Peter’s fight with Green Goblin, Rhino and Electro


Spiderman is set to take on The Verge with three villains this time, in May 2014. This summer we’ll see Peter Parker again saving the world in the sequel of Spiderman movie series: Amazing Spiderman 2. Sony Pictures has officially released the first trailer of the feature fantasy.

As the trailer shows, Peter initiates by saying, “Every day I wake up knowing that the more people I try to save, the more enemies I will try to make and it’s just a matter of time until I face those with more power than I can overcome.”


The trailer shows computer effects and characters feel animated. In this sequel, there’s a new face for Harry Osborn: Dane DeHaan, who is known for playing Jesse in HBO TV series “In Treatment”. Further characters such as Harry’s father Norman Osborn, Electro and Rhino are played by Chris Cooper, Jamie Foxx, Paul Giamatti respectively. The film is directed by Marc Webb and the story writer is James Vanderbilt.

With this trailer it seems, Peter seems to be stuck in huge trouble as there are three villains and no other Superhero to help him. We can’t say what Peter will do until the movie goes official. Is he Waiting for Superman? .
