This title is the same as that of the 1960s-era comics, and will further distance the reboot from the previous Sam Raimi/Tobey Maguire series of films.
Another distinction from the Raimi-era can be found in the new promotional art for "The Amazing Spider-Man." In the recently-released poster, the titular superhero is depicted with synthetic web-slingers, as opposed to the organic slingers conceived for the Raimi films.
"The Amazing Spider-Man" is currently being filmed in 3-D and will co-star "Easy A" actress Emma Stone as love interest Gwen Stacy. The release date is set for July 3, 2012.
