Jamie Foxx appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno last night, to promote his upcoming action-thriller White House Down, where he also spoke briefly about his role as Max Dillon, a.k.a. Electro, in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Take a look at the video, as the actor speaks out about his sister, a hair stylist on the movie, who created the unique Jheri curl comb-over look for this iconic Marvel villain. Jamie then proceeds to reveal the voice he is using as Electro, and some of the technicalities that come along with speaking his dialogue on set. You can also read the full quotes from his interview below.
When asked about Max Dillon's nerdy look, he revealed that he wanted to look like he never made it as an actor, comb-over and all.
"I play Max Dillon. This is me before I turn into the villain. My sister is my hairstylist. »

There aren't many surprises left when it comes to The Amazing Spider-Man 2 villain, Electro (Jamie Foxx). We've seen him as the meek, pre-Electro Max Dillon, and we've seen his blue, veiny visage as Electro. Now we've learned what his voice will sound like as the mutated baddie. But before he gave the audience at The Tonight Show a sample of his vocal work, he explained Dillon's wretched hairstyle. "My sister is my hair stylist and she created the 'Django' look; Ray Charles and things like that." When it came to Dillon, Foxx explained, "When I'm the nerd guy, I want to be the first black man with a comb-over. I told her, 'Make me look like I would look if I never made it.'" The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will be truly groundbreaking when it comes to African-American hairstyles. Hit the jump to hear how Electro will sound. The film also stars Andrew Garfield, »

We already know that Andrew Garfield's web-slinger is set to have his hands full when he dons the mask for a second outing in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 next year, with Jamie Foxx (Django Unchained) and Paul Giamatti (Sideways) starring as Electro and The Rhino respectively, while Chris Cooper (American Beauty) will portray Peter Parker's arch-nemesis Norman Osborn, a.k.a. The Green Goblin. Well, if a new rumour is to be believed, we can now add another classic face from Spidey's rogues gallery, with Comic Book Movie suggesting that Colm Feore (Thor) is playing Adrian Toomes - better known as The Vulture.
Now, there is the chance that this could be nothing more than speculation and if so, it's nothing new, seeing as Feore has been rumoured as The Vulture since he was first announced as joining the cast of the Marc Webb-directed sequel. It's also puzzling »

One thing that will never get old when discussing upcoming comic-book films, is hypothesising who the villains are going to be. Some films take a ‘the more the merrier’ approach, whereas others are content to leave it at one or two. But when you’re a studio like Sony, and chances of superheroic crossovers are next to nil, then you’ve gotta pull something impressive out of the bag to match films such as The Avengers. So why not go a bit villain mental? This is at least what rumours are suggesting is to be set up in Marc Webb’s upcoming The Amazing Spider-man 2. We already have clear confirmation that Jamie Foxx will be the main antagonist as Electro while he is backed up by Paul Giamatti’s Rhino, but we also have to remember that both Chris Cooper and Colm Feore are part of the cast, as »

Apparently "Amazing Spider-Man 2" director Marc Webb is going villain-crazy. In addition to Jamie Foxx as Electro, Paul Giamatti as The Rhino, and Chris Cooper as the Green Goblin, there may be at least one more villain in the highly anticipated sequel's rogues gallery. While this hasn't been confirmed yet, it still probably qualifies for a spoiler warning. You've been warned!
According to a report from Comic Book Movie, Colm Feore will be playing Adrian Toomes aka the Vulture. Additionally, the report suggests that the Vulture will team up with the Rhino, the Green Goblin, and Electro to form an embryonic version of what will eventually become The Sinister Six (for future sequels). For a long time it was assumed that Felicity Jones would be playing the Black Cat, although that too remains unconfirmed.

Dave Flannery seems to have it all, with a beautiful wife, two young kids, a home with a great view and a business that has managed to ride out the economic crisis. But Dave is also a man desperately trying to keep those very things from slipping away. Recently hitting Cambodia for some R&R with his wife, his wife's sister and her boyfriend, the four of them went, but only three came back. For now, the authorities are being kept in the dark as Dave and everyone else hopes the missing man will return, but it isn't long before dark secrets surface, altering everything they thought they knew about that wild night in Cambodia... The cheekily titled "Wish You Were Here" stars Joel Edgerton as Dave, with Felicity Jones and Teresa Palmer (who we also talked to; read here) as the wife and sister respectively, in a lean little »

With Iron Man 3 recently hitting the box office in big way, and Man of Steel and The Wolverine quickly on their way, it’s hard for one’s attention not to be firmly set to the pending comic book movies that we’re more than happy to accept with open arms into our wallets. As much as we as viewers, though, love and want nothing but the best for these type of films, one must sit back and ponder: are some of these movies in danger of becoming overcrowded, which is the last thing movies like this should be. The most obvious and pressing of these are X-Men: Days of Future Past, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, and Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy.
Wind the clock back to 2006 with Brett Ratner’s massive flop X-Men: The Last Stand, which was universally scorned by critics and audiences alike. If you were »

Photos have surfaced featuring comic book icon Stan Lee filming his cameo appearance for Marc Webb's superhero sequel The Amazing Spider-Man 2. He will be seen in the audience of Peter and Gwen's high school graduation. In The Amazing Spider-Man, the Marvel legend and creator of Spider-Man played a key role as the High School librarian in one of that film's most memorable action sequences. We also have another look at Andrew Garfield (Peter Parker) and Emma Stone (Gwen Stacy) filming more from this ceremony, which also serves as a key moment in the story arc for our hero and his girlfriend.

Marc Webb tweeted out a new photo of Spider-Man jumping over a NYPD police car while striking a classic Spidey pose. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has been in production for 83 days. I've also included some photos from the set of Spider-Man graduating with Gwen Stacy. I'm looking forward to seeing Spider-Man back in action. His new costume looks great, and I'm sure it will look even better up on the big screen.
