With just 2 weeks to go until The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is released on DVD and Blu-ray, otsoNY takes a look at the many posters that helped to promote the film across the globe.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is a 2014 American superhero film featuring the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man, directed by Marc Webb and released by Columbia Pictures. It serves as a sequel to the 2012 film The Amazing Spider-Man and was announced in 2011. The studio hired James Vanderbilt to write the screenplay and Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci to rewrite it. Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Jamie Foxx, Dane DeHaan, Campbell Scott, Embeth Davidtz, Colm Feore, Paul Giamatti and Sally Field star.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is the first Spider-Man film to be filmed entirely in New York State, including a car-chase scene that was filmed in Rochester because the speed laws are less restrictive in upstate New York. It became the largest film production ever in New York State. The decision to film in Williamsburg, Brooklyn near the Passover holiday caused some controversy, as critics believed that this was culturally insensitive, and would cause problems with parking. The filming company decided to work with the community and then agreed to adjust its production activities for Passover. Soundstage work was done at Grumman Studios and Gold Coast Studios, both in Bethpage, New York, and at the at Marcy Armory in Brooklyn.

Follow up films, The Amazing Spider-Man 3 and 4 have since been announced with release dates of June 10, 2016 for part 3 and May 4, 2018 for part 4. Garfield has already signed for the third film.

The complete list of New York film locations will be posted following the DVD release and this is now a potential nominee for the 1000th film.
