"The Amazing Spider-Man" was released Tuesday and is already shattering box-office records.
In two days, the Spider-Man reboot has grossed $59.3 million at theaters. Though that comes nowhere close to "The Avengers" two-day gross of $150.3 million, Spider-Man's well on its way to beating out the film's $207.4 million opening weekend.
Now, that you've seen the film, take a look at what didn't make it into the final cut, what role Anne Hathaway nearly had and what Sony has planned for the sequels.
We've gathered bits from a recent SuperHeroHype interview with Spider-Man producers Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach, IMDB and from our own comic knowledge.
The new Spider-Man franchise will be a trilogy (at the least).
Producer Matt Tolmach revealed to SuperHeroHype there are at "least three" more spidey films in the works.
The film's Facebook page also wasn't keeping word of more sequels any secret:
“It’s finally here! The Amazing Spider-Man is the first installment in a movie trilogy that will explore how our fave hero’s journey was shaped by the disappearance of his parents.”
Dr. Connors isn't the only "Lizard."
Dr. Connors was the Lizard in this film; however, in the comics he unwillingly gave his son, Billy Connors, a dose of the Lizard formula. Little Connors then became known as Lizard Jr.
Anne Hathaway was originally supposed to star in "The Amazing Spider-Man."
Before landing the coveted role of Catwoman/Selina Kyle in "The Dark Knight Rises," Hathaway was set to play a different feline.
The actress was originally to play Black Cat/Felicia Hardy in "The Amazing Spider-Man."
Instead, she'll play cat and mouse with the Caped Crusader.
