Paul Giamatti briefly talked about his role as Rhino, and made it sound like while he is in the upcoming movie, but that he wasn't really a major part of this film, but has been told that the plan for future movies would be when he would have a much larger role and screen time.
Looks like Sony is banking on a Spiderman Universe of films to right their studios downturn. They're having to drop their yearly releases from 22-26 per year to about 18 this next year, and for example they had 4 "summer blockbusters" this last year, but as of right now only have 1 slotted for next year. They're going to be way more judicious on big budget films, and it looks like they're going to double down on the super hero genre for any big budget films since their viewed as a guaranteed bet that is bankable with high appeal and box office returns.
