New <i>Amazing Spider-Man</i> Images  

Mere hours after we posted the cover of the new Entertainment Weekly featuring a The Amazing Spider-Man star Andrew Garfield, the magazine has released a gallery of images from inside the issue. It’s a combination of studio shots and movie stills — scans were already making the rounds online — featuring Garfield as Peter Parker, Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy, Sally Field and Martin Sheen as Aunt May and Uncle Ben, and Rhys Ifans as Dr. Curt Connors, aka the Lizard.

Word is now that the first trailer for the Marc Webb-directed film will debut next week, ahead of Captain America: The First Avenger.

The Sony/Columbia Pictures film, which opens on July 3, 2012, also stars Irrfan Khan, Denis Leary, Chris Zylka, Campbell Scott, C. Thomas Howell, Julianne Nicholson and Annie Parisse.

Update: EW has added six more images to its online gallery.

    Really looking forward to this.

    Garfield seems like a great choice. And by that topless pic – we can see he’s skinny, but still pretty buff! Which is whats needed. ;)

    Emma Stone however is who I am now looking for to seeing the most - she has become a breakout star since she was first announced. Zombieland and Easy A were both amazing movies. They both surprised me by being extremely funny. I highly recommend seeing both if you haven’t already!! And you will become an Emma Stone fan! ;)

    Batman Begins
    The Dark Knight
    X2
    X-Men: First Class

    And my guilty pleasure – Batman Returns – just skip everything without Michelle Pfiffer!! ;)

    But who am I kidding I enjoyed all 3 Spiderman movies!  – And Spiderman 2 is great! ;)

  • Faust

    Wow! Is he 28? Looks early 20′s to me – alot younger than Maguire. And his frame is slimmer, which also makes him more suitable.

    You clearly missed my main point. It wasn’t the change of cast or director that I mainly mentioned would affect this movie (although that will add to it) It’s the drastic change in costume and having a reboot this soon after the last series did really well. Spider-Man the character sells, yes, but when you change something so iconic, it becomes a sour spot for most. Something most everyone grew up with and has been accustomed to. Even everyone is in an uproar about Wonder Woman’s new outfit change in the comic that includes PANTS. She’s still the same character, but very few latched on to the new idea. That’s all I’m saying. It’s good to think different, but the majority of human being don’t like change and are comfortable with the same. It’s just a statistical fact.

    Good lord.  First of all, there is no context for any of these pictures – none of us have any idea if, or how, they are going to explain where the costume comes from.  Secondly, does anyone really need the movie to explain the costume?  Who cares?  We can suspend our disbelief enough to believe he gained super powers after being bitten by a spider, and developed mechanical web shooters, but need a detailed explanation to justify how he managed to design a superhero costume?  “Yeah, it was a great movie, but I just don’t understand how a high school student could design and make a costume that intricate!”.  Ridiculous.  The pics look like Spider-Man.  I love the classic costume but have no issue with the filmmakers tinkering a bit – we all knew they would because they want to separate themselves from Raimi’s films as much as possible.  The prior poster was right – the Batman costume is the weakest thing in Nolan’s films, but the character is still recognizably Batman and the films are good enough that the liberties they took don’t matter.

    they blew because they were all fluff and didn’t display spider-mans character at all, it was superman with spiderman thrown in for idiot audiences, and yes I am insane because I’ve been reading the comics since 1968. And obviously MJ finds out immediately duh, she sees spiderman leave peters house after uncle ben gets shot, but the thing with gwen see, is she hates spider-man, blames him for her fathers death, so there is a void created there because peter can’t tell her, and I’d love to go into detail about why the spider-man movies were complete trash (peter seems like an idiot, it’s emotionally and intellectually shallow, there’s too many idiot balls, the whole new yorkers loving and saving him…blah blah blah…but theres just not enough time and space here)

  • justin

    seriously?!?!?!

  • Lex

    I don’t feel like the Spider-man I read all those years ago has been in the books for a long time. When they went magic it eventually led to all those false promises of big stories and then (yes) OMD. Now Spider-man is (again) a different character. Now he’s like a 20 something year old immature man. I read enough of it to see how bad it was. It’s mainly about editorial mandates now, not stories.

    I guess I care about the comics, not the movies.

  • Foswell

    Yes, the costume looks terrible beyond belief.  But the rest of it looks great.  It has a real John Romita vibe to it!  Personally, I hated the Sam Raimi films.  Toby Maguire and Kirsten Dunst were awful and the stories sucked.  The best actor in those movies was the guy who played J. Jonah Jameson.  Hopefully he’ll be back for this one.  Can’t wait to see Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy!  She looks fantastic here.  As an old timer myself, I was utterly disgusted when they killed Gwen off in the comic in 1973.  I stopped reading it shortly thereafter and never went back.  I can’t stand Mary Jane Watson, so if Gwen is the star of this movie, it’ll be just fine with me–particularly if she knows he’s Spidey.  That’s what they should have done in the comic!  I just pray to God they don’t wimp out and kill her off again!

  • Faust

    The costume is fine – I sometimes read Spiderman comics and don’t know what the changes are. Do you really think the general public are going to care?

    Its blue, and red, and its got a spider on the chest – its pretty much the same. 

  • Faust

    I don’t think you meant to reply to me ;)

  • GerryG

    Spidey looks like a basketball in this costume

  • Colin McG

    Dude, seriously, get over OMD. Spider-Man comics are better then they have been in YEARS.

  • Bre

     actors are ALWAYS older in movies than their stage character.. why is everyone hating on this?? this costume looks SICK!!!! wayy better than just “bright red and blue solid basic old style outfit” it’s still iconic, still great, just way better! I love ult spider-man, and I can NOT wait for this movie!!!!!

  • Bre

     i don’t think it’s that drastic, i just think it got plus 12 awesome points for being a 2011 costume! hell yeaa

  • Bre

     aahahha

  • Faust

    What are you going on about? I wasn’t ‘hating’ on his age. I think he’s a great choice to play Spiderman – I was saying he looks younger than his ACTUAL age, which is a plus! ;)

  • Clem Nickel

    Well, we’ll see if they have the minerals to sacrifice Gwen to the alter of ‘the superhero’s dead girlfriend’ in the next one. I don’t think it would be wimpy; it would be quite a bold direction for a franchise worth this much money and with a young fanbase. We can disagree as to the artistic merits of the decision, but given the increasingly conservative nature of Hollywood, I can just imagine the suits’ reaction to a proposed plot that involves the hero killing his love interest by accident, especially when there are so many toys to be sold and Happy Meal tie-ins to push. (I am, of course, assuming they don’t kill her in this one, but I believe Emma Stone has signed on for a few of these.)

  • Prinnywesker

    People need to quit bitching about OMD. Yeah, it was a shitty storyline but does one shitty storyline really make the character “ruined forever”? If so how the hell did you manage to read through Spider-man’s 90′s run? Those were some of the worst storylines ever.

  • Chris Lee

    I think he was responding to Omegasaga.

  • Chris Lee

    I think the people who are calling the costume GAY are actually trying to say how fashionable it is. You know, kinda like queer eye for the Superhero.

  • Chris Lee

    For all the comments regarding a teenager making the suit in his basement; I don’t think this will necessarily be the case in the movie. In the Ultimate comics, the wrestling company he fights for makes the costume for him (and retains the rights to his likeness). Then he quits and goes off as Spiderman (only adding the weblines himself). So, maybe that’s how they’ll explain it.

    great costume

  • Bret

    well, here’s the trailer. I stand by my original thoughts, I’m not impressed:

    Looks really good! The way he got bit by the spider better but still did
    not see the radiation beam the spider went through first. It may be
    there but they did not show it.

    Looks cool. I like the costume.

  • RickReny

    This definately looks more like Ultimate Spider-man, whish is a good thing. they were basically just a re-imagining of spidey’s early years, and were generally well recieved  in the comics community. i must say that Garfield looks a-LOT more like peter Parker, especially his body type and frame. I always hated how short and stubby Tobey looked in the movies, spidey looks best when depicted long and lean with a ripped swimmers body, and a big head. As far as the suit goes, i like the stripe down the leg, which connects the belt and the boots in the same manner that the arm stripe connects the shirt to the gloves. I like the converging webs on the chest area, they are well thought out. Also, the more intricate and technical looking spider design is rad, but I dont think the rear legs need to be so long. The chrome-y looking boot soles are a bit garrish, i get that they are either trying to connect the chromed out eye design with another aspect of his costume, but they look kind of goofy. Another possibility is that he is employing some heretofore unseen tech in his boots. (I speculate that they are possibly boot jets that will assist him with his web-slinging, as perhaps an emergency measure in case he runs out of webbing, or that they are insinuating that his feet cant stick to walls without the boots). Also the swooshes near his hands, and the webbing on his boots are unnecessary and make the costume look too busy. overall, I am optimistic about this new spidey, lets hope they make spidey’s character more of the smart-ass wise-cracking hero we all loved in the comics. Hey, I loved the raimi era spider-man, and even enjoyed parts of S-M3(the church bellhouse scene was straight out of the comics, and both the Goblin2 and sandman subway fights were awesome) but that doesnt mean they cant improve on raimi’s movies.

    I didn’t know Emma Stone was in there. I’m interested now. 

  • Guardian.of.the.Galaxy

    You gotta remember that Peter Parker was kind of a dork…. I could totally see him taking a sewing class in high school and having the skills to sew a bunch of basketball bits together. Besides, since when are Spider-Man fans so discriminate about his costume? He had an alien parasite costume that covered him like goo but the costume in the picture is unbelievable? Really?  

  • RSB

    Classic example of using the word “gay” to be derogatory (also in this case, gay=looking like a female). Dude, keep up with the times.
