The biggest news of the past 24 hours was certainly the release of the new trailer for Marc Webb‘s The Amazing Spider-Man.

How is Spider-Man’s origin different this time around? Can you pick out the practical versus CG effects?
One site found what appeares to be a URL hidden in the trailer. Which lead to a website. And, probably, a huge can of viral worms.
After the jump, see the beginning of the Mark of the Spider-Man viral campaign revealed in the new trailer. Read More »

Earlier today we talked about some of the story aspects in Marc Webb‘s The Amazing Spider-Man that play into the ‘untold story’ that Sony is promising from the film. I assumed we’d have to wait a while longer before learning more about the story, but that might not be the case.
Projections have been seen around the city of London this evening pointing audiences to TheUntoldStoryBegins.co.uk, and a similar website, TheUntoldStoryBegins.com, should be launching soon in the US. The UK site gives a chance to sign up for “a sneak peek into the untold story,” which will take place on Monday February 6. Read More »
Sony is rebooting Spider-Man’s screen image, and director Marc Webb has shot The Amazing Spider-Man with Andrew Garfield playing Peter Parker, Emma Stone playing Gwen Stacy, and Rhys Ifans playing Dr. Curt Connors, the man who becomes the Lizard.

We don’t have a lot of info that illuminates what, specifically, the untold aspects of the story are. But a new official synopsis from Sony provides a few clues. Read More »

The first vague look we had at the Lizard in Marc Webb‘s The Amazing Spider-Man was via a fairly low-rent plastic rendering: a Pez dispenser. (Well, the first look those who weren’t in Hall H when Sony debuted the character at Comic Con, anyway.) Concept art followed on the heels of that reveal, and now we’ve got another toy to help shape our understanding of the character’s look. This time, however, the toy boats an actual photo of the guy, albeit a low-quality one.
In addition, another toy set seems to reveal an action setpiece in the film. As it turns out, this is one that we reported on a long time ago. I’ve used old art of the Lizard in the header to avoid spoiling things for those who don’t want to see anything before a new trailer hits, so hit the jump for all the new details. Read More »
When the guy who directed 500 Days of Summer was hired to direct The Amazing Spider-Man, it was pretty obvious the relationship between Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy would be on the forefront. The footage screened at San Diego Comic-Con confirmed that fact and now, new photos of Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone from Marc Webb‘s July 3 reboot show the characters in very typical, teen settings. These are scenes in the movie you likely haven’t seen much from yet. Check them out after the jump. Read More »
