Just last week we got the first glimpse of Andrew Garfield in the role of Peter Parker with a handful of pictures from the set.

First Look at Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker
Stills taken on the set of the Spider-Man reboot have provided the first opportunity to see Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker. He is seen in the images with the blonde Emma Stone who plays Gwen Stacy. The movie has been filming for a month and is set for July 3rd 2012 release. Garfield was excellent in The Social Network, and I'm a big fan of Marc Webb after 500 Days of Summer, so I have some faith that they are going to pull this off. I'm not a big fan of his out of control hair or finger-less...

Rhys Ifans to Play Spider-Man Villain
Last week it was announced that Emma Stone had joined the Spider-Man reboot to play Gwen Stacy. She joined Andrew Garfield who, as Peter Parker, was naturally the first person brought on for the film. Now another name has joined the cast. Director Marc Webb: "What sets the Spider-Man villains apart is the complexity of their relationships with Peter Parker. Rhys' incredible ability to embody both warmth and rage makes him the ideal choice for this character." Rhys Ifans, probably best kno...
