Sony Sets Release Date for Amazing Spider-Man Sequel

The Amazing Spider-Man doesn’t even come out until next July, but Sony is already so confident in its potential world-beating success that the studio has placed its sequel on the schedule. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will hit on May 2, 2014 — assuming the world doesn’t end, Sony doesn’t go out of business, and/or interest in Spider-Man doesn’t wane to the point of nonentity. Mark your calendars! [Deadline]
