With Alex Kurtzman and Drew Goddard tapped to bring together Spider-Man spin-offs for Venom and The Sinister Six, director Marc Webb is still in line to direct the third film of The Amazing Spider-Man universe in time for its June 10, 2016 release. But what about the fourth film? Yes, a fourth was also part of the slate dated for May 4, 2018, but it has since been reported that Webb will not be involved. So there’s no word yet as to who the director will be as things are still early in their development.
We’ve always known that Spider-Man’s most important battle has been within himself: the struggle between the ordinary obligations of Peter Parker and the extraordinary responsibilities of Spider-Man. But in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker finds that a greater conflict lies ahead.
It’s great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield). For Peter Parker, there’s no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone). But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that threaten the city. With the emergence of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter must confront a foe far more powerful than he. And as his old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, Peter comes to realize that all of his enemies have one thing in common: OsCorp.
