TOKYO, Japan – Sa ikalawang pagkakataon, muling magkasamang bumisita sa bansa ang Hollywood couple na sina Emma Stone at Andrew Garfield upang i-promote ang kanilang pelikulang “Amazing Spider-Man 2” kamakailan.

Kasamang dumating ng dalawa ang kanilang co-star sa pelikula na si Jamie Foxx, director na si Marc Webb at producers na sina Matt Tolmach at Avi Arad.

Sa isang press conference na ginanap sa Toho Cinema 7 sa Roppongi Hills, sinagot ng mga cast members ang ilang katanungan mula sa Japanese at foreign press pati na rin sa ilang fans.

“Spider-Man does have super strength. But what makes him really strong, I think, is that he’s just a regular boy. He’s just an imperfect, regular boy, trying to figure out how to live and how to be the best man he can be. And I think that’s why we all love him, that’s why we all want to put on that costume, that’s why we all want to put on that mask, because he wasn’t always strong.

“He didn’t use to be strong. He used to just be like me, like everyone. And it’s his compassion and his heart and his goodness that allow him to use the power he gets for good. And that’s what Spider-Man is all about. Thank you for the best question ever,” nakangiting sagot ni Garfield sa tanong ng isang fan.

“I was really excited to be part of this film. My part, I believe was to be the best villain that I could be. It’s beautiful to join a big blockbuster film with real thespians,” sagot ni Foxx kung ano ang kanyang naramdaman nang siya ay napili na gumanap bilang “Electro” sa sequel.

Matapos ang Q & A, nagpakawala ng mga pekeng spider webs ang cast members at crew na lalong nagpasigla sa premiere.

Aabot sa 400 Japanese loyal fans at supporters ang dumalo sa premiere kabilang na ang dalawang bata na nakasuot ng Spider-Man costume. Sila ay nabigyan ng pagkakataon na makapagpakuha ng litrato sa cast members at crew ng pelikula.

Ang Japan ang huling bansa na binisita nina Garfield bilang bahagi ng kanilang press tour. Matatandaan na dito ginanap ang world premiere ng first installment ng nasabing Marvel series noong Hunyo 2012. Bago ang premiere, isang pagtitipon ang isinagawa sa Yokohama upang gunitain ang Earth Hour kung saan si Spider-Man ang napili bilang kauna-unahang super hero ambassador.  

Ang “Amazing Spider-Man 2” ay mula sa Sony Pictures at ipinalabas sa bansa noong Abril 25.
