‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ Sequels Get 2016 & 2018 Release Dates

Sony Pictures has officially locked in the release dates for the third and four films in The Amazing Spider-Man franchise.  The Amazing Spider-Man 3 is expected to be released on June 10, 2016 while The Amazing Spider-Man 4 is scheduled to hit theaters on May 4, 2018.

The studio has decided to stay a step ahead of Marvel’s pattern to claim opening weekends in May.  The Disney subsidiary has released every Iron Man film on the first weekend of May, therefore Sony has decided to give Marvel some competition by releasing The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and The Amazing Spider-Man 4 on May, 2, 2014 and May 4, 2014, respectively.  Recently, Marvel announced it will be releasing a film on May 6, 2016.  Could it be the rumored Doctor Strange movie?

As for The Amazing Spider-Man 2, the film is currently being filmed with Andrew Garfield playing the lead and director Marc Webb returning behind the camera.  It has not been determined if Garfield will return for the third and fourth films or if he will be replaced with someone else.   The studio seems to be onboard with Marc Webb though.  The Amazing Spiderman 2 is only his third film to direct, (500) Days of Summer and The Amazing Spider-Man being his first two films.  The director built his reputation in Hollywood by directing music videos for artists such as Maroon 5, 3 Doors Down, Weezer and Green Day.

For now, audiences will just have to wait and see who will star in the upcoming Amazing Spider-Man sequels.  Luckily for us, we can get our Spider-man fix when The Amazing Spider-Man 2 opens in theaters on May 2nd, 2014.
