"The Amazing Spider-Man" actual budget revealed

At the beginning of the reboot progress, it was said that "The Amazing Spider-Man" (formerly simply titled "Untitled Spider-Man Reboot") budget revolved around $ 80 million. But then, Sony announced that this movie would be shot with 3ality 3D~ probably the most advanced 3D technology and by far the first and only movie using the techniques. From this interview with Richard Norton, Australian actor and martial artist who also did stunts in "Spider-Man", he unintentionally revealed the actual budget of this superhero reboot.

Unfortunately I can’t say much right now because I’m not allowed to. However I can say it was mostly stunt work. I doubt you’ll even recognise me. I play a SWAT guy but it’s a small part. I was on-set for four weeks and the experience was just phenomenal… it’s a $220 million budget movie! Vic Armstrong was the second unit director and it was great working with him. Andy Armstrong, his brother, was the stunt coordinator and an old friend. Andy’s the one who brought me onboard so for all those reasons and more it was a lot of fun!


$220 million, people! That's a lot of cash! But at least it assures that the special effects won't be disappointing. Hopefully the story line either!

P.S.: Our man Andrew Garfield's paycheck isn't disappointing as well. He'll get $500,000 for the first movie, $1 million for the second, and $2 million for the third. Happy for you, Mr. Garfield! ;D
