The second installment in the reboot franchise.
The film will take place about a year and a half after the first film. To captivate the audience right away, the film should start with Spider-Man fighting Rhino. This opening fight scene will give the impression that this is a stand-alone story, instead of carrying the baggage of the first film.
Now, Peter is a freshman in college. It is here that Peter meets his roommate, and new best friend, Harry Osborn.
Peter is also put with Gwen Stacy as a lab partner. Peter falls for her immediately.
Flash Thompson will remain in the film as Peter and Harry’s neighbor across the hall. Norman Osborn, of course, also comes into play in this film.

Wilson Fisk should make a few appearances, making the impression that he’s a philanthropist.
Eddie Brock will also begin working at the Daily Bugle in this film. Peter and Gwen should grow closer as the film progresses, and they should be a couple by about the ¾ mark (this relationship, however, shouldn’t be overplayed to avoid taking away from the action). Before you know it, Green Goblin appears and immediately begins his mission to destroy Spider-Man (the audience won’t know that the Goblin is Osborn at this point).
Osborn is revealed to be Green Goblin about halfway through the film. After defeating him the first time, Spider-Man takes the injured Osborn to the hospital (Norman appears to be perfectly sane again). Later on, Osborn learns that Peter is Spider-Man. This unleashes Osborn’s Goblin persona once again and, knowing that Peter has a girlfriend, he kidnaps Gwen. This brings about the classic scene on the George Washington Bridge.
Goblin drops Gwen from one of the towers and the impact of Spider-Man catching her kills her.
This is when the action should be at its highest, pushing the level of violence just below that of Spider-Man actually killing Goblin (once again, the climatic battle should be longer than any scene in the movie, pushing the running time to a near-3 hour mark).
The battle should end with Goblin unmasking himself and throwing himself off of one of the towers to his death (Osborn sees this as the one true way to defeat Spider-Man, making it look like the hero threw him from the tower). The next day headlines in the Daily Bugle will scorn Spider-Man, accusing him of both the deaths of Norman Osborn and Gwen Stacy. The closing scenes should have Peter mourning the loss of Gwen, Harry folding into himself as he grieves, and Wilson Fisk reading an article about Spider-Man in the paper, announcing to a man in the shadows that “it’s time this bug be removed.”
