The British actor was instrumental in providing Peter Parker with a skateboard and some much-needed wit in the ‘Amazing’ reboot. By Josh Wigler, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Andrew Garfield in “Amazing Spider-Man” Photo: Among his many powers, Spider-Man has one “Amazing” gift that perhaps you don’t already know about: He is a skilled skateboarder. Andrew Garfield, the British actor filling out Peter Parker’s shoes in director Marc Webb’s “Amazing Spider-Man,” brought many ideas to the superhero reboot’s table, including his character’s proficiency with a skateboard. Speaking with MTV News, Garfield said that “a lot changed” over the course of shooting “Spider-Man,” including his very own idea to have Spidey wield a board at numerous points throughout the movie. “It was my idea that this iteration of Peter would skateboard, maybe because I skateboarded when I was a kid, and it’s something personal to me,” the actor said at the “Amazing Spider-Man” press junket. “It linked in so nicely with being able to activate the powers in a new way.” Garfield teamed up with director Spike Jonze’s Girl and Chocolate Skateboards and persuaded the powers that be to include scenes of Peter messing around with skateboards, adding some levity to an otherwise “heavy” script. “What’s always been important about Spider-Man to me is the lightness, the humor and the enjoyment of a teenage kid getting these powers. In reality, what would happen?” he said. “We pitched the idea to [the Spider-Man producers] and they shot it. I thought that was awesome.” Another scene that changed due to Garfield’s input: the infamous carjacking sequence that sees Peter in full Spidey regalia for the first time, webbing up and taunting a criminal with lots of laughs and very little restraint. “That was important to me, in terms of the humor, the wit, finding the power of anonymity,” he said. “That was a fun night, because it was all improvised and free. There was nothing scripted about that. That was awesome.” Overall, Garfield found the entirety of “Spider-Man” to be “a forever evolving process,” thanks in large to Webb’s place at the head of the film. “It was all changing,” said the actor. “Marc set up an environment where we could play, and that was really, really nice.” Check out everything we’ve got on “The Amazing Spider-Man.” For breaking news and previews of the latest comic book movies — updated around the clock — visit SplashPage.MTV.com .

Because nothing says “blockbuster of the season” like angsty daddy issues — mingled with a barrage of cool CG-tastic effects and action shots and nerd bait — Sony’s unveiled the latest official trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man , due in theaters July 3. Emphasis this time around is on what made emo-snarky Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield) the super-powered jokester hero he is: Namely, losing Ma and Pa Parker as a kid. This is the most complete-feeling trailer we’ve seen so far, with Parker’s voice over literally explaining his character struggle to us over a melange of intriguing action-y bits, interspersed with the mushy stuff with Emma Stone. Photorealistic Lizard eyeballs! Ceiling chases! Web-slinging gone wrong! Most importantly, the effects here show more detail and look much more complete than in trailers and teasers past. Check it out and chime in below. The Amazing Spider-Man hits theaters July 3. [via Apple ]
Levi Johnston’s daughter-to-be will soon be named after his piece. No, not the instrument that impregnated Bristol Palin in 2008 and now Sunny Oglesby, who is expecting their first child together. We mean a gun. “Breeze Beretta Johnston,” Oglesby announced when asked by Inside Edition what they will name their baby girl , who will arrive later this year. “Like the gun, Beretta?” the interviewer asked, referring to the Italian firearms manufacturer. “Yeah,” the 20-year-old blonde answered, laughing. “My favorite shotgun,” Johnston, who celebrates his 22nd birthday today, added before showing off the “Breeze” tattoo he has on his right bicep. He also has “Tripp,” for his son with Bristol, inked on his other arm. Last month, Johnston admitted during an interview with The Insider that Sunny Oglesby ‘s pregnancy came as a surprise … much like his first rodeo. “It was unplanned. There was a time we went to the cabin and forgot the birth control pills and a month later we found out we were having a baby.” Funny how that works. Twice in 22 years in this ne’er-do-well’s case.

The Bachelor host Chris Harrison and his wife of over 18 years, Gwen, are divorcing. The couple announced their separation “after much heartfelt consideration” today. “Though we have made this incredibly difficult decision to separate , our love and mutual respect remain, and we look forward to sharing in the lives of our wonderful children,” Chris and Gwen said in a joint statement Thursday. Harrison, 40, is best known for hosting ABC’s The Bachelor and The Bachelorette . In 2010, he was accused on-screen of hitting on a producer’s wife. At the time, he was hardly ruffled by the “cheap shot” of controversial contestant Rozlyn Papa . “I had nothing to hide,” he said. “My wife was there.” The couple live 35 miles from Hollywood with their kids Joshua, 9, and Taylor, 7. Harrison, who coaches both kids’ soccer teams, is “an amazing father,” Gwen says. “He’s very loving and involved.” He’s also amazing at his job. No word if he will also be the next Bachelor , but Harrison will be back running the show for its popular spinoff (see Bachelorette spoilers ) May 14. [Photo: WENN.com]
This life is not an easy one. I’ve made powerful enemies. Put those I love in danger, but the one thing that has haunted me my entire life has been finding the truth about my feelings. So states Andrew Garfield, in the role of Peter Parker, at the outset of the new Amazing Spider-Man trailer . The third preview to be released for the upcoming blockbuster, this one will premiere prior to all midnight showings of The Avengers tonight. It gives us a closer look than ever before at Rhys Ifans’ villain, while giving us plenty of scenes between Garfield’s Parker and Emma Stone’s Gwen Stacy. The Amazing Spider-Man comes out on July 3.

We take a closer look at the latest action-packed sneak peek. By Kara Warner Andrew Garfield in “The Amazing Spider-Man” Photo: Columbia Pictures Holy web-slingers, Spidey fans: Another trailer for “The Amazing Spider-Man” has arrived! While there are several familiar scenes from the first two epic teasers weaved into this exciting new two-and-a-half minutes, director Marc Webb has introduced a bunch of intriguing new elements into the new footage. Here are five key scenes from the latest trailer: Lonely Boy Webb told us previously that the fact that Peter Parker is an orphan will play heavily into the story of this film, which is very much exemplified by the multiple “lonely boy” shots of Parker standing atop various buildings or walking by himself through the city streets with a forlorn look on his face. Not to mention Andrew Garfield’s voice-over: “This life is not an easy one. I’ve made enemies, powerful enemies. I’ve put people I love in danger, but the one thing that has haunted me my entire life is finding the truth about my parents … ” “I think there’s a real emotional consequence to someone who’s left by their parents when they’re 7 or 8 years old,” Webb has said . “And that contributes to sort of this trickster, chip-on-his-shoulder attitude.” Other Mischief May Come Speaking of Parker’s trickster side, we get another glimpse of his comedic and sarcastic sensibilities during his encounter with a carjacker, as shown in the previous trailer. What’s new and fun this time around is Parker taunting the guy: “You found my weakness!” Parker says to the carjacker sarcastically. “It’s small knives!” The other intriguing and very possibly mischievous element in play here is the quick shot we see of Parker looking up at the impossibly tall and menacing Oscorp skyscraper. Yes, we know Parker is interested in the building because of its ties to his father and that Oscorp ID card he holds onto, but we can’t help but feel a little bit of foreshadowing is at play in knowing what plays out with one Norman Osborn. Lizard in a Lab Coat Behold, the recently transformed, very dangerous-looking Lizard crumpled on the floor and bursting out of his lab coat — or the lab coat of his former self, Dr. Curt Connors (played by Rhys Ifans). We’ve seen some very quick shots of the film’s central villain before, but this trailer offers us multiple glimpses at the before-and-after of Dr. Connors. And he is not at all a nice guy in his hulking green lizardy form (“Avengers” pun un-intended). We see the Lizard hurling innocent people around and later in heated pursuit of our heroic web-slinger. Mystery Man With Intel Speaking of the pre-reptilian Dr. Connors, there is a very brief, but intriguing interrogation-like scene in the trailer between Connors and an unidentified older gentleman. The gentleman looks to have long-ish white hair and is shown in a sort of shadowy silhouette asking the good doctor a very pointed question about Peter Parker and his parents. “Did you tell the boy about his father?” he says to Connors. We don’t get to hear the Doc’s response during this brief exchange, but the worried-but-stubborn look on Connors’ face says the man is definitely withholding some key information that will undoubtedly prove to be of major importance to Parker down the line. Action, Action and More Action And just like all great superheroic trailers before it, Webb spends the last minute or so of his new trailer impressing us with tons of action. We see Parker-as-Spider-Man’s extraordinary athleticism in some scenes of good old-fashioned chasery: He dodges police officers, carjackers and the Lizard, not to mention one impressive feat wherein he appears to be holding a burning car from plunging into a river — which, by the way, totally reminds us of a scene from Sam Raimi’s “Spider-Man,” whether that was intended or not; we’ll have to see the finished film to decide. There is also more demonstration of Spidey’s fancy web-slingers as he masters his skills with swinging from building to building and stealthily sliding into rooms upside down.

We’re still nearly five months away from the midsummer release of Sarah Polley’s Take This Waltz , but it’s never too soon to commence anticipating a new Michelle Williams film, or a muted Seth Rogen, or Sarah Silverman’s infamous full-frontal nudity , or… Actually, that’s all I’ve got ahead of this new trailer making the rounds. The love-triangle dramedy premiered last year at the Toronto International Film Festival and was picked up soon afterward by Magnolia Pictures, which will release it June 29. The distributor’s own official trailer is no doubt forthcoming, but this market-style job should do the appetite-whetting trick just fine. [via TOH ]
