The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (also released as The Amazing Spider-Man 2: Rise of Electro in some markets)[8] is a 2014 American superhero film featuring the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man, directed by Marc Webb and released by Columbia Pictures. It is the fifth theatrical Spider-Man film produced by Columbia Pictures and Marvel Entertainment, and is a sequel to The Amazing Spider-Man (2012). The studio hired James Vanderbilt to write the screenplay and Alex Kurtzman, and Roberto Orci to rewrite it.[9][10] The film stars Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker / Spider-Man, Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy, Dane DeHaan as Green Goblin / Harry Osborn, Campbell Scott and Embeth Davidtz as Peter's parents, and Sally Field as Aunt May, with the addition of a new cast including Paul Giamatti as Rhino / Aleksei Sytsevich and Jamie Foxx as the primary antagonist, Electro / Max Dillon.

Development of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 began after the success of The Amazing Spider-Man. DeHaan, Giamatti, Jones, and Cooper were cast between December 2012 and February 2013. Filming took place in New York City from February to June 2013. The film was released in 2D, 3D, and IMAX 3D on May 2, 2014, in the United States with two international premieres being held between March 31 & April 10, 2014. The film received mixed reviews, and although it grossed $709 million worldwide and became the ninth-highest-grossing film of 2014, it was the lowest-grossing film in the series.[6] However, the film was declared a "hit" in the overseas markets with high openings and a wide cinematic release. The film subsequently won awards for its music composition and acting, notably one Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Award and two ASCAP Awards.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 was originally envisioned as the beginning of a shared fictional universe, which would have continued with two sequels and several spin-off films. Due to it performing below expectations, all subsequent installments were canceled and a new iteration of the character appears in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, beginning with the 2016 film Captain America: Civil War, before he is scheduled to appear in his own film Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2017.

Plot

OsCorp scientist Richard Parker records a video message to explain his disappearance. Later, he and his wife, Mary, are aboard a private jet hijacked by a man sent to assassinate Richard. The plane crashes, killing both Richard and Mary, after he uploads the video.

In the present, Richard's son Peter continues to fight crime as Spider-Man. He pursues and apprehends Aleksei Sytsevich, who attempted to steal a truck containing plutonium. During the chase, Spider-Man rescues OsCorp Industries employee Max Dillon. Later, Peter meets with Gwen at their high school graduation ceremony, and insists he keep his vow to her father and ends their relationship. Peter's childhood friend Harry Osborn returns to Manhattan to see his terminally-ill father Norman, CEO of OsCorp. Norman explains his illness is genetic, and Harry is at the age where it first develops. Norman gives Harry a small device he claims contains his life's work. The next day, Norman dies and Harry is appointed the new OsCorp CEO. He humiliates the OsCorp board, which has been privy to Norman's secret biogenetic projects for foreign military powers.

Thinking that they have become friends, Dillon idolizes Spider-Man. While tending to some maintenance in an OsCorp laboratory, he shocks himself by accident, and the line breaks off and he falls into a tank of genetically-engineered electric eels. They attack him, and he mutates into a living electric generator. Meanwhile, Peter attempts to maintain a friendship with Gwen, but she reveals she may move to England for school. Before they can discuss it, Dillon wanders into Times Square and accidentally causes a blackout. Spider-Man attempts to calm him down, but the police fire at Dillon, making him think that Spider-Man had betrayed him before attacking furiously. Spider-Man stops him, and Dillon is taken to Ravencroft Institute, where he is studied by German scientist Dr. Kafka. The first symptoms of Harry's illness show, and he uses the device Norman gave him to deduce that Spider-Man's blood could help save him. He asks Peter, who has been selling photos of Spider-Man to the Daily Bugle, for help finding Spider-Man. Peter refuses, unsure of what effects the transfusion would have, and although he does come to Harry as Spider-Man, he still refuses, and Harry develops an intense hatred towards Spider-Man. The OsCorp board-members frame Harry for covering up Dillon's accident, and remove him as CEO. Harry's assistant, Felicia, informs him of equipment that could help him, so he makes a deal with Dillon to get him back inside the OsCorp building. There he finds a suit of armour and other equipment made by Norman, as well as venom from the now-destroyed genetically-altered spiders. The venom accelerates Harry's illness and transforms him into a goblin-like creature, but the suit's built-in emergency protocol restores his health.

Peter uses information left by his father to locate the video message in an abandoned subway station's hidden lab. Richard explains he had to leave because he refused to cooperate with Norman's biogenetic weaponization plans. Peter then hears a voicemail from Gwen, telling him she was offered the British scholarship and is heading to the airport earlier than expected. He manages to catch her and professes his love for her, and vowing to go wherever she goes, they agree to go to England together. Dillon causes another blackout, and Peter heads off to fight him. Gwen follows, and together they restore power and overload Dillon's body, killing him. Afterward, the transformed Harry arrives equipped with Norman's armor and weaponry; upon seeing Gwen, Harry deduces Spider-Man's true identity and, swearing revenge for being refused the blood transfusion, kidnaps her. He fights Spider-Man at the top of a clock tower, but is defeated. Despite Spider-Man's attempts to save Gwen, she falls to her death after webbing breaks in the clock tower. Distraught, Peter ends his career as Spider-Man.

Five months later, Harry is coping with the after-effects of his transformation while incarcerated at Ravencroft. His associate, Gustav Fiers, visits Harry and breaks Sytsevich out of prison. Equipped with an electromechanical suit armor, Sytsevich calls himself "The Rhino" and rampages through the streets. Peter, inspired by Gwen's graduation speech, confronts him as Spider-Man.

Production

Development

"The Spider-Man film franchise is one of our studio's greatest assets. We are thrilled with the creative team we have assembled to delve more deeply into the world that Marc, Avi and Matt have begun to explore in The Amazing Spider-Man and The Amazing Spider-Man 2. We believe that Marc, Alex, and Drew have uniquely exciting visions for how to expand the Spider-Man universe in each of these upcoming films."

- Sony[19]

The sequel's villain was teased in the 2012 film.[20] Webb stated that the origin story would further unfold in the second installment.[21] In June 2012, Webb said he was unsure whether he would return,[22] though it was confirmed on September 28, 2012, that he would return to direct the sequel.[23][24] He stated that he "wanted to create a universe that not only can withstand but anticipate future storylines" while also "working in and of itself for one movie."[25] Andrew Garfield had also expressed hope to reprise his role,[26] and in September 2012, it was confirmed that he would do so.[23][24] Emma Stone was later confirmed to be reprising her role as Gwen Stacy, having signed a contract for two Amazing Spider-Man sequels.[12][27][28] The original costume and mask from The Amazing Spider-Man was altered and has lens in the mask, making the eyes bigger. The web shooters were also modified.[29]

Actor J. K. Simmons expressed interest in reprising his role as J. Jonah Jameson from Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy should the studio offer it to him.[30] In October 2012, Electro was rumored as the next villain.[31] Jamie Foxx was given the role.[32][33][34] That December, Foxx confirmed that he was cast as the character, and during an interview with MTV, explained that the redesign of the character would be more grounded as well as details of his depiction.[35] On December 3, 2012, Marc Webb revealed that Dane DeHaan was chosen to play Harry Osborn.[36] Paul Giamatti was confirmed as a cast member in February 2013.[37] Felicity Jones confirmed her involvement with the film under an undisclosed role.[38] Giamatti also indicated in an October 2013 interview that he would return in The Amazing Spider-Man 3 as well.[39] On February 27, 2013, Chris Cooper was cast as Norman Osborn.[40]

By October 10, 2012, Shailene Woodley was in talks for the role of Mary Jane Watson.[41][42] By March 14, 2013, Woodley had concluded filming her small role.[43] Garfield recalled, "I think all of [those scenes] were in our backyards. We had two or three scenes with me talking over the fence, and there was one with us riding together on a motorcycle that we never got to shoot."[44] By mid-June, Mary Jane was cut from the film, with director Webb explaining it as "a creative decision to streamline the story and focus on Peter and Gwen and their relationship."[45][46]

Filming

“This project had the highest level of detail incorporated into digital environments that we’d ever done. The human characters were finished to a very high degree. We had to do a very realistic version of Emma Stone. Spider-Man and Gwen are involved in stunts that would have been very dangerous if real.”

— Jerome Chen - VFX supervisor of Sony Imageworks.[47]

Major scenes were shot in Rochester - Main Street

On February 4, 2013, Marc Webb posted on Twitter that principal photography had begun and that the sequel was being shot on 35 mm film in the anamorphic format,[48][49] instead of being filmed digitally as the preceding film was. Sony revealed this would be the first Spider-Man film to be filmed entirely in New York State, including a car-chase scene that was filmed in Rochester because the speed laws are less restrictive in upstate New York.[50] It became the largest film production ever in New York State.[51] The decision to film in Williamsburg, Brooklyn near the Passover holiday caused some controversy, as critics believed that this was culturally insensitive, and would cause problems with parking.[52] The filming company decided to work with the community and then agreed to adjust its production activities for Passover.[53][54] The producers had assembled a 200-person crew for the 10 day shoot in Rochester, with a total number of 250 local crew members and 150 local extras.[55] The prominent scenes were shot mostly on Main Street of Rochester and were digitally remastered to look like New York City.[56]

On June 25, Webb posted on Twitter that filming was completed.[57] Soundstage work was done at Grumman Studios and Gold Coast Studios, both in Bethpage, New York, and at the Marcy Armory in Brooklyn.[50][58]

Special effects

The VFX design of Times Square, where the battle of Spider-Man and Electro takes place took one year[59]

Sony Pictures Imageworks designed the special effects for the film.[60] The digital composition of the film, including the scene where the battle of Spider-Man and Electro in Times Square, took one year to complete.[59] The sets of Times Square were built in Gold Coast Studios with the green screens[61] and most of the scenes were digitally re-designed by computer.[62] The photography and VFX team took over 36,000 photos of the Times Square in order to re-create the location digitally. In addition, the animation team captured over 100 billboards during the photography process.[63]

Jamie Foxx as Electro. According to the actor, the make-up part was the most difficult phase during filming.[64]

The film was post-converted from 2D to 3D, in part because the production team wanted to shoot 35 mm film. Dan Mindel used Kodak Vision3 500T 5219 and 200T 5213, while the second unit shot day exteriors on Kodak Vision3 50D 5203.[65] During the production, 20 layers of lightning CGI effects were applied to depict Electro. Jamie Foxx was photographed as Electro by KNB EFX team and the skin colors used to show the moods of the character.[66] A total number of 1600, visual effects shots of the film was originally filmed in 2K resolution and then converted into 4K resolution with the help of color grading.[67] To give the visual effects a realistic look, sound designers Addison Teague and Eric Norris and re-recording mixers Paul Massey and David Giammarco mixed the background music using Auro 11.1 cinema sound technology and the film's soundtrack was remixed using Dolby Atmos, Auro and Dolby 5.1.[67]

Post-production

The film was mixed in Auro 11.1 and Dolby Atmos in the converted William Holden Theater. The mix for both was completed by Paul Massey and David Giammarco.[67][68]

A mid-credit teaser scene from X-Men: Days of Future Past was added to the film after its London premiere, due to an existing deal between Webb and 20th Century Fox, in which Fox allowed Webb to direct the film if Sony would promote the X-Men film for free.[69] The scene, set during the Vietnam War, shows Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence), a rogue mutant, trying to infiltrate a military camp led by William Stryker (Josh Helman) in an attempt to recruit fellow mutants Havok (Lucas Till) and Toad (Evan Jonigkeit).[70][71][72] The scene's inclusion sparked confusion among some viewers in the United Kingdom, who thought it meant an X-Men–Spider-Man crossover film was being planned, based on how Marvel Studios and Disney use codas within the Marvel Cinematic Universe to promote future films.[69]

On July 20, 2013, Webb announced that Hans Zimmer would be composing the music for the film, replacing James Horner, the composer of the first film.[73] On October 25, 2013, Pharrell Williams revealed to Billboard that he would co-compose the score with Zimmer.[74] Webb and Zimmer formed a supergroup with Williams, Johnny Marr, Mike Einziger and former Eurythmic, David A. Stewart to create the music for the sequel.[75] Eventually, Stewart did not participate in the film's music, and the supergroup, credited as The Magnificent Six (a reference to the Sinister Six) was composed of Williams, Marr, Einziger, Junkie XL, Steve Mazzaro and Andrew Kawczynski assisting Zimmer. The soundtrack for the film was released on April 22, 2014 by Columbia Records and Madison Gate Records.[76] Hans Zimmer described his work for this film asdifferent from previous works by him, thus revealing one of the themes for the film, which was first heard on the website.[77]

On March 31, 2014, a track called "It's On Again" was uploaded to Soundcloud.[78] It features vocals by Kendrick Lamar and Alicia Keys. Keys announced the song on Twitter and credited Zimmer and Williams, along with Lamar and herself for the song, indicating the song as a part of the film's soundtrack.[79] Webb described the song as “upbeat and exciting”.[79]

Marketing

The release of the film in the United Kingdom was postponed to April 16, 2014, two days ahead of its original April 18 date.[80] Deadline reported that, in addition to the production budget, the film's marketing budget was $180–190 million.[81]

On July 17, 2013, Sony released a clip from the film with the first released footage of Jamie Foxx as Electro to encourage attendance at the panel, at the San Diego Comic-Con International.[82] At the panel they premiered a four-minute trailer, which was not publicly released but eventually leaked on the internet.

On December 8, 2013, it was announced that new footage from the film would be presented during New Year's Eve festivities at New York City's Times Square.[94] The film was further promoted during the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) "Earth Hour" campaign. The cast was present at the launch of the 2014 event in Singapore.[95] Disney Consumer Products announced a merchandise product line for the film at the American International Toy Fair on February 17, 2014.[96]

In March 2014, Gameloft and Marvel announced the launch of a mobile game of the same name for smartphones and tablets.[97][98] It was released on consoles afterward.[99] Kellogg's released an application featuring the film.[100] Evian served as a promotional partner of the film. On April 1, 2014, the brand released an advertisement "The Amazing Baby & Me 2" featuring Spider-Man and a baby version of him, as a follow-up to their original "Baby & Me" campaign.[101] The film partnered with NBCUniversal for advertising. Spots for the film appeared on Bravo, E!, USA, Syfy, Telemundo, and mun2. A customized page was created on Fandango.[102] In May 2014, Marvel announced that Spider-Man's costume from the film would be shown within Marvel: Avengers Alliance.[103]

Home media

Fans who saw the film started petitions on several petition websites to include a "Director's Cut" in the home video release for cutting out scenes from the film's marketing, including scenes featuring Martin Sheen reprising his role as Uncle Ben and Chris Zylka reprising his role as Flash Thompson, along with Shailene Woodley and Electro's deleted scenes[lower-alpha 2] and a post-credits scene.[lower-alpha 3][107] The film has an alternate ending where Peter Parker's father meets Peter at Gwen's resting place.[18] Creative agency Deckhouse Digital was hired to produce several animated GIFs ahead of the DVD/Blu-ray release as part of a sponsored ad campaign on Tumblr.[108][109] The Amazing Spider-Man 2 was released by Sony Pictures Home Entertainment for digital download on August 5, 2014 and was released on Blu-ray, Blu-ray 3D and DVD on August 19, 2014.[110]

Reception

Critical response

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 received mixed reviews from film critics and audiences.[111] The Los Angeles Times said, "[The film is] overstuffed with plot lines, set pieces and villains, although stars Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone do their best to give the movie heart."[112] Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a 53% approval rating from critics, with an average score of 5.8/10 based on 267 reviews. The site's consensus states: "While the cast is outstanding and the special effects are top-notch, the latest installment of the Spidey saga suffers from an unfocused narrative and an overabundance of characters."[113] On Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating, the film also has a score of 53 out of 100, based on 49 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[114] CinemaScore polls conducted during the opening weekend revealed the average grade cinemagoers gave the film was B+ on an A+ to F scale.[115]

The main criticisms of the film were the underdeveloped characters, overlong running time, and crowded script.[116][117][118] However, the special effects, chemistry between Stone and Garfield, Dane DeHaan's performance, the action scenes, and Hans Zimmer's musical score were met with high praise.[119][120] Foxx's portrayal of Max Dillon/Electro was met with mixed reviews.[121]

Tim Robey of The Telegraph said, "Marc Webb's Spider-Man sequel is overstuffed with high-voltage villains, but the sparks between Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone save the day".[122] Simon Reynolds of Digital Spy said, "Peter's past, present and future all intertwine in a sequel that offers bang for your buck. That said you can't help [but] feel the franchise bean counters at work here thanks to all the ominous foreshadowing and unresolved character arcs. Too many cooks and all that ...".[123] Kim Newman of Empire scored the film three out of five stars, saying: "A few too-broad gags aside — and even these are in the funky spirit of '60s Marvel — this is a satisfying second issue with thrills, heartbreak, gasps, and a perfectly judged slingshot ending."[124] Leslie Felperin of The Hollywood Reporter said, "The eponymous hero hits his super-heroic stride here, as does Andrew Garfield in the role, especially when Spider-Man's alter ego Peter Parker learns there's always some fine print in a contract with this many benefits. The plot gets itself tangled up in multiple villain strands, but in the main, this installment is emotionally weightier and more satisfying than its predecessor."[125] Guy Lodge of Variety said, "Redundancy remains a problem, but this overlong superhero sequel gets by on sound, fury and star chemistry."[126] Richard Roeper gave the film a B+, stating that "It's about 20 minutes too long and it's overstuffed with too many characters and too many subplots, but there's enough good stuff in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 to warrant optimism about the next chapter of the franchise."[127] A negative review came from Peter Travers of Rolling Stone, giving the film two stars out of four, he said: "Things go wrong quickly with Amazing 2. Am I the only one who hates the word Amazing to describe a movie that isn't? Just asking."[128]

Box office

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 grossed $8.7 million on its early Thursday night showings.[129] It finished its opening weekend in first place with $91.6 million, almost $30 million more than the opening weekend gross of the first film.[130] The film grossed $202,853,933 in North America and $506,128,390 in other countries, for a total gross of $708,982,323.[6][7]

"It's a big day here at Sony. Kevin, Amy and their teams have done an incredible job. The Marvel process is very thorough, and that's why their results are so outstanding. I'm confident Spider-Man will be no exception. I've worked with a number of up-and-coming directors who have gone on to be superstars and believe that Jon is just such an outstanding talent. For Spidey himself, we saw many terrific young actors, but Tom's screen tests were special."

— Tom Rothman, Chairman of Sony Pictures Entertainment Group[141]

Further information: Spider-Man in film § Sequels

Sony had originally intended the film to launch an expansive film universe around Spider Man to compete with the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In 2013, Sony announced a third Amazing Spider-Man film with a release date of June 10, 2016, which Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci and Jeff Pinkner would return to write, and a fourth film with a release date of May 4, 2018.[142][143] Additionally, the series was to include spin-off films featuring the Sinister Six and Venom, with Drew Goddard writing and directing Sinister Six and Kurtzman directing a Venom script co-written by himself, Orci, and Ed Solomon.[144][145][146] Sinister Six had been planned for a November 11, 2016 release.[147][148] Additionally, by August 2014, Sony had hired Lisa Joy Nolan to write the script for a 2017 film starring a Marvel superheroine.[148]

However, between December 2013 and the release of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 in May 2014, Garfield and Webb revealed that while they would both return for the third film, neither was certain of their involvement in the fourth, with Webb adding he would certainly not be directing.[149][150][151] Following the mixed critical reviews and franchise-low box office performance of The Amazing Spider-Man 2, the future of the franchise was unclear. By July 2014, Orci had left the third film to work on Star Trek Beyond,[152] The Amazing Spider-Man 3, which would have included the return of Norman Osborn[153] and focused on Peter's recovering from Gwen's death,[154] was delayed to an unspecified date in 2018, and The Amazing Spider-Man 4 was moved to a later, unknown date.[147]

Following the 2014 Sony Pictures Entertainment hack, Sony was revealed to have been in talks to have Sam Raimi return to the franchise to direct a new trilogy for the character and was in discussion with Marvel Studios about including Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe film Captain America: Civil War. Marvel reportedly was unhappy with some of the terms of the proposed arrangement, including the film rights staying with Sony, and both talks allegedly ceased.[155][156] However, in February 2015, Sony and Marvel Studios announced that a new iteration of Spider-Man will appear in the MCU, with the character appearing in Captain America: Civil War before Sony releases a standalone film titled Spider-Man: Homecoming produced by Kevin Feige and Amy Pascal on July 7, 2017.[157] Following this announcement, The Amazing Spider-Man 3 was canceled.[158] Sony Pictures will continue to finance, distribute, own and have final creative control of the Spider-Man films. Marvel Studios and Sony will explore opportunities to integrate other characters of the MCU into future Spider-Man films.[159][160][161] Tom Holland will star as the new Spider-Man.[141] In March 2016, The Hollywood Reporter has reported that Sony are moving forward with the standalone Venom film with Dante Harper writing the script while Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach will be producing and supervising the project; it will not be related to the Amazing Spider-Man film franchise.[162]
