Much of our talk about THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 has centered on the villains, but a small percentage of that is the debate over the fate of Gwen Stacy. If you notice her costume (possible spoilers) from the set shots, and you’ve read the comic books or know anything about the Spidey storyline then you know that the outfit is very telling.
Here’s the deal though: the studios don’t always follow what happens in the comics. You and I both know this. You’ve seen several comic book films that have steered far from the original storylines of the characters. So will Gwen’s character go down the path that the comics take her? Well, aside from the costuming we don’t know but Emma Stone did drop what some might say is a hint of what’s to come:
I think the intention the whole time has been to tell Gwen’s story has closely to the comic as possible.
The actress then added this about Peter Parker:
Basically they’re going to see the continuation of the Spider Man story, which is the hero’s journey, and he’s up against a whole new squadron of villains and he’s struggling with promises he’s made in the last movie and the consequences of making those and what it’s like to be in love with somebody who you promised to not see anymore.
