Sony Moving Forward With Amazing Spider-Man 2, James Vanderbilt Returns To Write Script

HeatVision reports that Sony is starting development on The Amazing Spider-Man 2 as they've just commissioned a script. They've hired James Vandebilt who worked on the first film to return and work on the sequel. Director Marc Webb and the cast including Andrew Garfield are likely to return for the sequel as well. Since studios setup trilogy contracts when it comes to possible franchises. It's a similar confidence that Warner Bros. had when they started work on Green Lantern 2 before the first film was finished. The Amazing Spider-Man is still currently shooting and won't be released until 2012.

The Amazing Spider-Man Official Title of Spidey Reboot, Plus New Still!

Sony has announced the new title of the Spidey reboot is officially The Amazing Spider-Man. Personally I think everything Sony and director Marc Webb have done with the reboot has been for the benefit of fans and I'm really looking forward to this. The studio has also released a new image of Andrew Garfield in full costume including a web-shooter pose. I expect we could see a teaser trailer sometime during Comic-Con this summer and I can't wait to see what this costume looks like in action.
