Sony Hires THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 3 Writers, More of the Same


No shockers here folks, as Sony re-signs Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci and Jeff Pinkner for The Amazing Spider-Man 3. That triumvirate of scribes is responsible for bringing the second film in this resurrected franchise to life, which is set to premiere next summer.

Dare I say… Sinister Six?

While we’ve yet to hear confirmation from Sony on the matter, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 star Jamie Foxx has recently revealed that the nasty supervillain team will undoubtedly appear in the future. And guess what? Spider-Man will have a few allies in his war against crime.

That’s right… Sony has brokered a deal with Marvel Studios for temporary rights to The Avengers.

Okay, that bit about The Avengers is obviously not true, but I just checking if you’re awake.

In all seriousness, though, I wonder if they’ll use the traditional squad, featuring Doctor Octopus, Kraven, and Mysterio.  Considering director Marc Webb’s use of Rhino (with Paul Giamatti acting) and with Lizard in the previous flick, I imagine the villainous squad will be a more modern mixture.
