THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN Sequel Heading To London

As previously speculated, the sequel to The Amazing Spider-Man (the production title of which was recently revealed as being "London Calling") will indeed shoot partially in the UK's capital, presumably recreating the storyline from the comic books in which Gwen Stacy spends some time there.

When it was revealed that The Amazing Spider-Man sequel had been given the working title of "London Calling", we speculated that it might have something to do with the storyline in the comic books which saw Gwen Stacy visiting the capital. Well, according to Bleeding Cool, they have now been able to confirm that production of the movie is indeed heading to this side of the pond. "I managed to confirm that London Calling has indeed been planning for some production over here in the UK. How much? No idea. Yet. But it’s not studio stuff – or at least not just studio stuff. They’re planning to film out and about in the streets." Whether or not this means that Spider-Man will be following Gwen over to London remains to be seen, although her absence certainly leads the door wide open for the introduction of Mary Jane Watson! Be sure to sound off with your thoughts and theories in the usual place!







STARRING:

Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker/Spider-Man
Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy
Shailene Woodley as Mary Jane Watson
Jamie Foxx as Max Dillon/Electro
Sally Fields as Aunt May

RELEASE DATE: May 2nd, 2014.

Remember in Sins Past by JMS where Gwen left for France and slept with Norman Osborn and had twins as a result?

Just imagine that happening in this movie.

Hell yes first Thor:TDW and then Capt America:TWS and now this being filmed in London, I'm making sure i'm not sick this time when it comes to working on the last 2 I missed out on Thor :(

@Spideyguy94- I read that JMS wanted Peter to be the father. However, Marvel being Marvel, didn't want him to have kids as they thought they would age him and he wouldn't be relatable anymore. As we all know, nobody can relate to someone who has children.

@captainobvious exactly, it's funny how the only 2 bad stories in JMS' run where editorially mandated by quesada

[frick] that shit. No offense, but unless they just wanted to shoot at say, Pinewood, Shepperton, or any studio location, I wouldn't want to see Spidey in London.

Cool we get to see Peter in London, we don't know if we'll see Spidey. It would cool though, and they might just be shooting there and not be London in the movie

Earlier announcements said it would be filmed entirely in NY, I guess that was BS

Hey, look at all the people who know nothing about Spider-Man here in the comments!

Gwen went to London after her dad died to live with his Uncle and Aunt in the comics.
And then Peter went there to find her, but he had to do Spider-Man business and Gwen hated Spidey at the time, and she would wonder why Spidey and Pete were in London at the same time, so he went back to NYC.

'Nuff said!
