TASM 2: Marc Webb Teases 'Patient Zero'

The director has just posted the day #55 Twitter tease from his currently shooting Amazing Spider-Man sequel, and it appears to be an Oscorp diagram for someone (or something) called Patient Zero. The image is that of a spider - could Peter Parker be undergoing tests at Oscorp?

When this hit Twitter, fans immediately jumped to Venom shaped conclusions, but we are pretty sure that character won't be a part of the movie so what's it all about? Well unless the patient IS the spider, it would seem that Oscorp are doing some type of experiments with arachnids (we'll assume of the genetically modified variety) on someone they've dubbed Patient Zero. Could Parker have returned to Oscorp for a superpower to-up? Or does this hearken back to Peter's father's first experiments? Sound off with your thoughts below.

In The Amazing Spider-Man™ 2, for Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield), life is busy – between taking out the bad guys as Spider-Man and spending time with the person he loves, Gwen (Emma Stone), high school graduation can’t come quickly enough. Peter hasn’t forgotten about the promise he made to Gwen’s father to protect her by staying away – but that’s a promise he just can’t keep. Things will change for Peter when a new villain, Electro (Jamie Foxx), emerges, an old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, and Peter uncovers new clues about his past.

My only complaint about the first Spiderman was the villain was a bit underwhelming for some reason.

I believe this movie will be great. It won't be a Dark Knight or Iron Man type great, but great nonetheless.

Flashback. Calling it now. And besides that, I'm pretty sure Richard Parker didn't experiment on spiders in the comics. I think that was Ben Reiley, though some twists I don't mind. Either way this film is shaping up nicely

DeadPoolLax
DeadPoolLax - 4/24/2013, 2:27 PM
patient zero is peter parker (with the spider)... oscorp decided to use peter as their first test subject of cross species genetics... peter's mom and dad were at what happened to peter so they left to find justice, but found death by (wait for it.....) NORMAN OSBORN.

if i'm right i should play the lottery....

Oh god..

that's why Norman is sick, he experimented on himself with the spiders before they worked fully and has lead to him becoming very sick.

Somehow Peter is going to be getting sick too, and he'll have to find a cure, but this far into Norman's mutation he'll become the Goblin with the use of the cure.

I don't like all of this Oscorp crap.
