Marc Webb has officially started production on Amazing Spider-Man 2! Once again, the film will be shot in 3D and star Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone, as Peter Parker and Gwen Stacey. 2 more cast members were added as well. We have the OFFICIAL announcement of Paul Giamatti as The Rhino, and Colm Feore (Thor) was cast as a yet unknown role. The rumor is that he could possibly be Norman Osborn; since Harry Osborn will be in the film being played by, Dane Dehaan.

Below we also have the official plot synopsis for the movie. Check it out below!

 Columbia Pictures announced today that filming has begun on The Amazing Spider-Man™ 2 in New York. The film is the first in the history of the franchise that will be filmed entirely in New York City and New York State. 


The sequel to last year’s critical and box office hit The Amazing Spider-Man, the film stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Jamie Foxx, Shailene Woodley, Dane DeHaan, Colm Feore, Paul Giamatti, and Sally Field. 


In The Amazing Spider-Man™ 2, for Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield), life is busy – between taking out the bad guys as Spider-Man and spending time with the person he loves, Gwen (Emma Stone), high school graduation can’t come quickly enough. Peter hasn’t forgotten about the promise he made to Gwen’s father to protect her by staying away – but that’s a promise he just can’t keep. Things will change for Peter when a new villain, Electro (Jamie Foxx), emerges, an old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, and Peter uncovers new clues about his past. 


The film is directed by Marc Webb from a screenplay by Alex Kurtzman & Roberto Orci & Jeff Pinkner, with a previous draft by James Vanderbilt, and based on the Marvel Comic Book by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach are the producers. 


The film’s key behind-the-scenes team includes director of photography Dan Mindel, production designer Mark Friedberg, editors Pietro Scalia and Elliot Graham, and costume designer Deborah L. Scott. 


The latest chapter in the Spider-Man story is set for release in 3D on May 2, 2014.

Amazing Spider-Man 2 will be released May 2nd, 2014.
