Yesterday, director Marc Webb was doing some mysterious twittering. He posted a photo with this “Day 1. #anamorphic #film #philthecameraoperator”. Hints here? The first AMAZING SPIDER-MAN installment was filmed on RED Epic, so is Webb making a return to the standard technique or yore?

Here’s the first production photo with Phil the camera operator:

Then today all was revealed. Webb tweeted another photo, but with something from Oscorp. All that accompanied the image was this: “Day 2. #oscorp.”

Aside from Mary Jane (Shailene Woodley), Electro (Jamie Foxx), and Rhino (Paul Giamatti) serving as new characters, we also have the entitled friend of Peter Parker, Harry Osborn played by Dane Dehaan. Obviously since we’ve already seen Oscorp, does this mean that we will get a surprise with Norman being introduced? Oscorp is after all his baby. Norman was not shown in the first installment, but was a huge part since he was the center of Dr. Connors’ work in trying to find a cure for Osborn’s unknown terminal illness. So maybe he will get more than just a reference this time.

Analyze away.
