The Amazing Adventures Of Spider-Man is a live action television series that is based on the Spider-Man comics. It aired in 2010 on The Youtube Network. It starred Davin Atkinson as Spider-Man, Ryan Desnoyer as Eddie Brock, and Dustin Desnoyer as J. Jonah Jameson.
The show features Peter Parker as a 20 year old who has moved out from his Aunt May's house into his own apartment. He works as a freelance photographer at the Daily Bugle, who hires Peter to take photos of the infamous Spider-Man as he fights his many popular enemies, including The Green Goblin, Venom, Electro, The Shocker, and The Kingpin. The entire show was shot in Edmonton, Alberta.
The show was cancelled at episode 13, the 1st season finale. 65 episodes spread across 6 seasons were originally planned. If the show were to continue, there would be introductions to characters like Carnage and Scarlet Spider. Scarlet Spider would become Spider-Man for the whole 5th season, while Peter would take a break from the webs. After Peter would return, Ben Reilly would resume being Scarlet Spider rather than dying.
Development
[edit]Originally, Atkinson was to direct the show with a different actor playing Spider-Man. However, FOX, a sponsor of the show, told the producers to make "a live-action version of Spider-Man:TAS" that aired on their Fox Kids programming block. The idea of having real guns with bullets was dropped in favor of laser-guns. Atkinson, who always wanted to potray Spidey, took over the role due to his masculine body structure, which is simalar to Spider-Man's in TAS. Atkinson decided the show would feature Peter Parker as he was in the mid 1990s, being in his 20's and living in an apartment with Mary Jane. Atkinson grew out his hair and beard so he could look simalar to the way Peter Parker looked in that era.
Overview
[edit]Peter Parker lives in an apartment with his roomate Harry Osbourne, and takes pictures of Spider-Man for a living. Peter is dating Mary Jane Watson. He fights many of his famous enemies featured in the comics. The show, although being an action-drama much like Spider-Man:TAS, features a much more mature approach, much like the comics.
Seasons
[edit]In Season 1, a 20 year old Peter Parker starts dating Mary Jane Watson, while he lives in his apartment with his roommate Harry Osbourne. He fights villians like The Green Goblin, The Shocker, Rocket Racer, The Kingpin, Kraven The Hunter, Mysterio, Electro and Venom.
