New Spider-Man Trailer featuring the Lizard

Sony/Paramount/Marvel released a new trailer for ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ set to hit theaters July 3.

In the latest add we finally get a few glimpses of the Spider-Man’s antagonist ‘The Lizard’. There’s a even a few shots of them duking it out. Looks pretty sweet, definitely getting more exited about this release with each new trailer.
