In a recent interview with MTV, Emma Stone - who will play Gwen Stacy in the upcoming film The Amazing Spider-Man - talks about preparing for the role in a joint interview with The Help co star Bryce Dallas Howard (who, ironically, played Gwen n 2007's Spider-Man 3). What I found most interesting in the following selection is that she hasn't really seen any of the film other than small action sequences, and also her research for her role


With so much buzz about the new Spider-Man film, it seems that Stone will be just as surprised as fans to see the flick.

"I've seen nothing, I promise. I've seen small action sequences for the 3-D, and it looked terrible," she joked. "I really haven't seen [anything]."

So what did Stone do to research the role of Gwen — besides leaning on Howard for her first-hand account, of course.

"I read a pretty comprehensive Death of the Stacys book ... and it's a really amazing book to learn the story of Captain Stacy and Gwen Stacy," she said. "And I've read a various amount of comics."


Hmmmm. I guess this hints further at the possibility that Captain George Stacy just might die in The Amazing Spider-Man! We'll see what happens next year when the film comes out.

The Amazing Spider-Man swings into theaters July 3rd, 2012!
