The Amazing Spider-Man 2: All The Villains We’ve Heard About So Far

With about six months before the release of Sony’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2, there are at least three confirmed villains set to appear in the film.There are also, by our count, at least another four that have been teased, rumored or mentioned in passing by the filmmakers.It seemed, on the heels of the release of a purportedly-legitimate poster for the film above, depicting not just Electro but also Green Goblin and The Rhino, like as good a time as any to take stock of the various rumors and reports.For the record, when we list a character’s status as “viral” below, what we mean is that it’s unclear the character will appear or be referenced onscreen but they exist in the film’s universe, as evidenced by one or more entries on the film’s viral marketing website for The Daily Bugle. The movie’s Wikipedia page lists The Vulture and Hydro-Man as characters teased by the Bugle, too, although it doesn’t substantiate that claim and we can’t find the reference.
