It's sounding like Jamie Foxx (Django Unchained) has confirmed to ET (via LatinoReview) that he's landed the role of Electro in Amazing Spider-Man 2. The villain had been rumored for a while Foxx had even confirmed he had tried the costume on. It will be interesting to see how Max Dillon is connected to Oscorp and possibly Richard Parker. Foxx joins newcomers Dane DeHaan playing Harry Osborn and Shailene Woodley as Mary Jane Watson. British actor Damian Lewis (Band of Brothers, Homeland) had been linked for testing for a villain role and has been rumored for Norman Osborn. It's expected that Norman will finally appear in this installment with Harry being involved.
“I think Electro will be an exciting character to play because he’s a … genius electrician-type person, and he gets the short end of the stick from the whole world, and the next thing you know he turns it on.”
