10 Milestones That Must Happen In The Amazing Spider-Man 3

6. We Need A New Ally For Spider-Man

That's not to say that Spider-Man isn't enough, of course, but when you consider that our hero is going to have to go up against at least six bad guys in either The Sinister Six or The Amazing Spider-Man 3 (or both), the web-slinger would surely benefit from having somebody on his side - and preferably somebody with superpowers, too. Felicia Hardy, played by Felicity Jones, appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man 2... and we assume for a reason. Which is to say, her being in the movie was no accident - Hardy's alias is that of the Black Cat, of course (for a comparison of the sort of character we'd be expecting here, check out Selina Kyle in The Dark Knight Rises). And yet it's difficult to see how Marvel could worked out an agreement for Jones to return a whole four years in the future (The Amazing Spider-Man won't be released 'til 2018). Still, we need another hero; Black Cat makes sense.
