\"\"<\/p>\n

We have confirmation that The Lizard is the main villain of\u00a0The Amazing Spider-Man<\/em><\/strong> thanks to C. Thomas Howell<\/strong>‘s confrimation. The actor recently appeared on\u00a0The Retroradio<\/a>, where he confirmed that the Lizard faces off against Peter Parker with the help of his character’s son.<\/p>\n

Here is Howell’s description of one of the major action scenes:<\/p>\n

“There is not a whole lot to talk about. Sony wants us to be hush-hush right now. I play a relatively small role. I play a construction worker who’s son is caught in the middle of a battle between the Lizard and Spider-Man on the Manhattan bridge. Spider-Man helps me get my son back from this perilous situation. There is some payback there at the end of the movie. Spider-man is kind of hurting. I help him when all of the other people won’t. Part of the story is, the nation thinks he might be a bad guy. They don’t know what to think. Because of my experience on the bridge with my kid, I know he is a good guy. I pitch in and help out at the end. That is the best way.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Amazing Spider-Man<\/em> arrives in theaters\u00a0July 3rd, 2012. Marc Webb<\/strong> directs the cast that includes, Andrew Garfield,\u00a0Emma Stone,\u00a0Rhys Ifans,\u00a0Martin Sheen,\u00a0Denis Leary,\u00a0Chris Zylka,\u00a0Irrfan Khan,\u00a0C. Thomas Howell.
