Bad news: Jamie Foxx is playing Electro and has stated that he will NOT be wearing the classic costume. Good news: PAUL GIAMATTI HAS BEEN CAST AS RHINO!!!

<< JK Simmons is great in that role...they should have brought him back to be in this film!<< I don't know about this past film ..... what with Denis Leary, there's only so much snarky, exasperated deadpan delivery one movie can take!
