Here comes the Spiderman

He's back.

The webslinging hero who hails from New York, New York, is on his way back to the screen. Here is a link to the newest picture from Untitled Spider-Man Reboot.

There will be a few changes, however. Tobey Maguire has been replaced by the half British Andrew Garfield. Hey, the only way to make Spiderman cooler is to make him British, right? In addition, Spidey's new girlfriend appears to be Gwen Stacy, played by Emma Stone (the role was previously played by Bryce Dallas Howard).

Other highlights: Rhys Ifans, from Nanny McPhee Returns and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1, is playing Dr. Curt Conners / The Lizard. Do I spy a villain? And what do you know! Uncle is alive once more, to be portrayed by Martin Sheen.
