ABOUT THE FILM Spider-Man returns to the big screen for the untold story of Peter Parker in The Amazing Spider-Man . In beginning a new chapter in the Spider-Man saga, it was important to the filmmakers to show a side of Peter Parker that moviegoers haven’t seen before. “There are a lot of things in the Spider-Man canon that haven’t been explored cinematically,” says Marc Webb, who directs the new film. “The loss of Peter’s parents launches Peter on his journey. I was curious about the emotional consequence of that tragic event – ultimately, this is a story about a kid who goes out looking for a father and finds himself. Then, of course, we have the Gwen Stacy saga – whether you’re familiar with the comics or not, it’s an extraordinary story. And, of course, there’s the Lizard, one of my favorite villains in comics. All of that gave us a lot to work with.” Avi Arad, formerly the head of Marvel Studios and now a producer who has shepherded the Spider-Man films from the very beginning, notes, “Spider-Man has filled thousands of pages of comic books with hundreds of stories since he debuted fifty years ago. That’s a deep vein of resources to mine as we look to continue the story of Peter Parker on the screen.” 4 Matt Tolmach, a producer of the film who previously oversaw the Spider-Man franchise when he served as president of the studio, says, “Spider-Man is an iconic character because we all grew up relating to him, we all have a personal relationship with him. Peter Parker is what sets Spider-Man apart. He’s relatable, an everyman. He’s a kid who has trouble with girls, he’s not popular, he’s not rich and powerful…. he’s just an ordinary boy. He’s someone you can identify with – you can see some of yourself in Peter. And because of this, the story of Peter Parker, of Spider-Man, touches people emotionally in ways that few other characters can, and we, as filmmakers, but also as fans, feel a huge responsibility to do right by the character.” Taking the helm of The Amazing Spider-Man is Marc Webb, whose previous film, (500) Days of Summer , deftly and unblinkingly portrayed the ups and downs of a relationship. “From the very first day we talked to Marc, it was clear that he brought a unique vision for Spider-Man and the universe,” says Tolmach. ”He’s been our guide throughout this process. He’s someone who’s shown an affinity for character and emotion both of which are the heart of any great Spider-Man story.” At the center of The Amazing Spider-Man is, of course, the story of a boy, Peter Parker. “Since we were reestablishing Peter Parker, we had to build the audience’s relationship with him from the ground up,” notes Webb. “In order to do that legitimately, we begin the story with Peter Parker as a seven-year-old boy. We see him before his parents left, before they handed him off to Aunt May and Uncle Ben. This allowed the audience to experience the significant emotional cues in his life.” This is a Peter Parker who has been shaped by who he is and what he has experienced. “In this movie, we wanted to explore what happened to Peter before he went to live with his Uncle Ben and Aunt May,” says Avi Arad. “He is an orphan. The fact that he is an orphan is one of the most important influences on his young life, and the Spider-Man movies haven’t yet delved into that. All orphan stories are ultimately about the search for parents, and I think this film explores that in an interesting way. 5 His parents vanished in a mysterious way that made his quest for answers more complicated.” “This Peter Parker is a little different: he’s still an outsider, but he’s an outsider by choice,” says Webb. “He has a chip on his shoulder – he’s the kid who rejects people before they can reject him. The humor, the sarcasm, the rebellious streak emanates from that little kid who got left behind so long ago.” “For this film, we talked a lot about Peter Parker, a boy who lost his parents at a very young age – and lost them in a way that’s still a mystery to him,” adds Tolmach. ”It leaves him with a lot of formative questions – Where am I from? Who am I? Why did my parents leave? Why did this happen? Who am I going to become? These are all the primal questions that face our hero. This angle had not been heavily explored, yet it’s so critical to who Peter Parker is – this is the essence of a young man’s journey. So we were incredibly excited to go down this road with the story and these characters.” “The things that are unresolved, the things we have to live with, send us down a road – and that road can make us better people or not,” says Webb.

King Schultz (il premio Oscar® Christoph Waltz), il cacciatore di taglie di origine tedesca. Schultz è sulle tracce dei fratelli Brittle, noti assassini, e solo l’aiuto di Django lo porterà a riscuotere la taglia che pende sulle loro teste. Il poco ortodosso Schultz assolda Django con la promessa di donargli la libertà una volta catturati i Brittle – vivi o morti. Il successo dell’operazione induce Schultz a liberare Django, i due uomini scelgano di non separarsi, anzi Schultz sceglie di partire alla ricerca dei criminali più ricercati del Sud con Django al suo fianco. Affinando le vitali abilità di cacciatore, Django resta concentrato su un solo obiettivo: trovare e salvare Broomhilda (Kerry Washington), la moglie che aveva perso tempo prima, a causa della sua vendita come schiava.
