‘Amazing Spider-Man’ Footage Teased For Audiences, Official 3D Trailer Released [Video]

“The Amazing Spider-Man” won’t reach theaters in the United States until July 3 but that hasn’t stopped the movies team from dropping in on audiences and highlighting some of the new movies footage.

Sony Pictures this week took to 13 cities around the globe to promote the film with stops in Mexico City, Berlin, Rome, Paris and Moscow, Los Angeles, New York, Rio de Janeiro and London.

At the events visitors were first greeted with the 3-D full-length trailer for Amazing Spider-Man. In the footage Andrew Garfield is shown portraying both the bullied Peter Parker and in his familiar role as Spidey. Viewers are also greeted with their first look at the villainous Lizard.

Speaking to the audience in Los Angeles director Marc Webb revealed:

“I think there are a lot of things from the Spider-Man canon that haven’t yet been explored cinematically. This movie really starts off with Peter Parker and his parents, which is something we’ve never really seen before, and I think that was something we were all really interested in exploring as filmmakers.”

Garfield in the meantime appeared in New York City where he said that the next person to play Spider should be “half-hispanic and half-African-American” like the current reincarnation of the Spider-Man comic book character.

Here’s the trailer for Amazing Spider-Man:

Will you be running out to theaters to see what this new version of Spider-Man looks like or have you had enough of constant recreations of the same stories repeatedly by studios who lose actors mid-story?
