Peter Parker is returning to the big screen in May, and we're finally getting a real taste of what that'll look like. The first trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has just been released, and it reveals a movie that's packed with villains, super-sized action, and plenty of computer-generated effects. All three of the film's villains — Electro, Rhino, and the Green Goblin — make an appearance, and while some are just brief looks, the trailer closes with a (relatively) long shot of Spider-Man fleeing from bolts of electricity thrown by Jamie Foxx's eerie Electro. You can check out the trailer below.
