Synopsis

The Webslinger is back! After the phenomenal success of the first blockbuster movie, director Sam Ralmi and stars Tobey Magulre and Kirsten Dunst return for Spider-Man 2, joined by Alfred Molina as Spidey's new nemesis, the brilliant Otto Octavius, who has been reincarnated as the maniacal and multi-tentacled 'Doctor Octopus'. Caught in the Web is the must-have official companion to this highly anticipated sequel, and is simply one of the most in-depth 'making of' books ever produced. It features exclusive interviews, and hundreds of photos, sketches, storyboards and pieces of stunning, fully painted production art, chronicling every aspect of the movie's design, but paying special attention to the incredible work that went into creating 'Doc Ock'.
