Amazing Spider-Man Sequel News of the Day

The Amazing Spider-Man isn't even out yet, but Sony is getting a jump on the sequel, tapping all-star writing duo Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci (Star Trek, Cowboys & Aliens, Transformers) to do a pass on the script for Amazing Spider-Man 2.

Kurtzman and Orci don't just do blockbusters, though: their drama People Like Us opens this summer, and that may be the best indication of how they'll handle the more dramatic side of Spider-Man.
