During a pretty revealing interview with the guys over at Collider,
Marc Webb was asked if he would return to helm a sequel to the latest CBM, The Amazing Spider-Man. According to Webb, "I haven’t made a decision," he replied. "I’m just like...this has been such a long process, it’s so much fun, it’s really exciting and I’ve invested a lot. But I just want to finish this movie, take a breath and then I’ll make that call, we’ll see." Well so far the film has fared well critically, but financially it has done excellent. So there's a strong chance we will see another Webb-diected Spidey film in the near future.
Did you wonder which line of Spidey comics he drew inspiration from? "in terms of finding things from the comics, obviously there’s some references to his parents and different versions of that, and I studied that a little bit. And then I liked some of the attitude in The Ultimates." Further into the conversation, he stated "I like the attitude and the physical components of Spider-Man from some of the Ultimates. So it’s an amalgam of different characters that felt interesting to me." Well, now we know. Also, when asked about the villains, the only logical response was; "Well, hmm, I don’t want to give anything away."
The Amazing Spider-Man can be seen in theaters now!
