New 'Amazing Spider-Man 2' posters reveal Green Goblin identity and show Spidey vs. Electro in Times Square

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will feature three main villains in Electro (Jamie Foxx), Green Goblin and Rhino (Paul Giamatti). Thanks to some new full-sized promotional posters, fans can get a clear look at two of those villains.

Screen Rant is one of many sites that posted the international posters, which you can check out here. The first photo shows a reflection in the eye of Spider-Man's costume of Jamie Foxx (in full hoodie) as Electro with electricity shooting out of his hands. The second photo shows the two combatants fighting in Times Square.

The third photo is perhaps the most interesting because it shows a wide view of Electro and Spidey, but also because it offers probably the cleanest look yet at the Green Goblin. Barring a major bait-and-switch, it seems that The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is going the route of Spider-Man 3 with Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan) as the gliding villain.

Recently, Chris Cooper, who plays Norman Osborn, had teased the possibility of the elder Osborn as (arguably) Spider-Man's greatest foe, but these recently released photos all but confirm DeHaan's portrayal of the character. In the comics, both father and son have donned the Green Goblin suit at some point to make Spider-Man's life miserable, but it looks like Harry will be first in line when The Amazing Spider-Man 2 hits U.S. theaters on May 2, 2014.

The film, directed by Marc Webb, also stars Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker/Spider-Man, Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy and Sally Field as Aunt May.
