Looking like a living plasma globe, Foxx certainly comes across as effective, even if the real test will be how the makeup works on film. Chances are we’ll get to judge that with some footage at the Con, and maybe even an early trailer hitting the web.
Director Marc Webb, meanwhile, seems happy to have the birth pangs out of the way and relishes the chance to focus on the future. “People aren’t scared. With the first one I felt it was important to retell that origin story,” he says. “But that was kind of brutal because people were so familiar with it. Now that the origin story is done? We’re off to the races. It’s incredibly liberating.”
We’re hoping that means a less choppy plot this time around, but there are plenty of interlinked arcs to go around, with Electro just one part of a soup that also includes Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield)’s ongoing romance with Emma Stone’s Gwen Stacy, and his links to Norman Osborne (Chris Cooper) and son Harry (Dane DeHaan).
