Last week, Coming Soon got an exclusive first look at Andrew Garfields new costume from the upcoming The Amazing Spider-Man 2. The updated attire now seems more similar to Tobey Maguires Spidey in almost every single way, which might seem like a step backwards if the previous Amazing Spidey costume hadnt looked so amateurish. Though that was to the appeal of the film and Garfields character in the first flick - he being a teenager who hadnt exactly specialised in fashion design - an update to something a little sleeker was certainly due. The largest way in which the new costume differs from any previous attempts is in its bulbous white eyes. They look almost like cartoons, harking back to Spideys comic book history - especially the particularly exaggerated, super-stylish Spider-Man of the Ultimate universe. Upon even the slightest examination, the eyes become so iconic its amazing to think theyve never looked like this in previous films. I see this image and think, damn, that IS Spider-Man. This new costume seems indicative of a Spidey whos found his place in the city. As an icon, equally a part of the New York skyline as the Chrysler building. Theres only so long we can put up with seeing the same story through a different directors eyes and, while Webbs portrayal of the origin story was fresh and was treated with the care it was due, there is trepidation that the introduction of Mary-Jane Watson so soon into the reboot, or the inclusion of Norman Osborn in the villains seat once again might be a step too safely planted in the same footprints as Raimis series. At least Webb has certainly done one thing right already: Spideys new costume is absolutely amazing!
