| Paul Giamatti as Rhino |
Marc Webb's upcoming sequel to The Amazing Spider-Man will
be getting another new villain! The Hollywood Reporter says that Paul Giamatti
is in talks to play the Rhino in the May 2, 2014 film. It's also being reported
that Felicity Jones is in talks for an undisclosed role. (Here’s hoping that
she is playing Felicia Hardy also known as Black Cat!)
The alter-ego of Aleksei Mikhailovich Sytsevich, the Rhino
first appeared in 1966's "The Amazing Spider-Man" #41. A former
low-key thug, an experiment grafted a nearly-indestructible polymer to
Aleksei's skin, making him nearly unstoppable.

Giamatti appeared last in year in a variety of projects like
Rock of Ages, Cosmopolis and John Dies at the End. Jones, meanwhile, is well
known for roles in films like The Tempest and Like Crazy.
Already set to star Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Jamie Foxx,
Shailene Woodley, Dane DeHaan and Martin Sheen, the new chapter in the
Spider-Man saga was already confirmed to see the debut of Electro (Foxx) and
Mary Jane Watson (Woodley).
The Amazing Spider-Man sequel will begin principal
photography next month and they'll be in New York City for a two-week venture.
On Location Vacations reports that the production will be in New York from
February 12th through the 26th and the film will be shooting under the name
"Untitled Columbia Pictures Project." There's no word on where
production will move after New York.
