When production began on The Amazing Spider-Man 2 , director Marc Webb wanted to make improvements to Spider-Man's costume. And they did, and most people were quite pleased with the final look. But, there was one planned modification that didn't make the final cut. If you remember, about a year before the film was released Marc Webb and costume designer Deborah Lynn Scott started gushing over the new suit, and one of things they were most proud of was the new web-shooters with a built-in MP3 player. "We wanted ours to have an MP3 player in it," Scott told Entertainment Weekly in July of 2013. "You'll see early on in the film that he can turn music on that he's listening to inside the costume through his web shooter."
If you saw the film, then you know there was no MP3 player. Why wasn't it used? Concept designer and 3D artist Ismael Salcedo, who worked with Scott on the web-shooters, explained on his blog, "Marc Webb wanted an MP3 attached to Spidey's web shooter, those designs were later canned by Andrew Garfield."
Even though they weren't used we can at least take a look at Ismael Salcedo's designs and even a prototype of it, which you can view below. There are also designs for Spider-Man and Electro's costumes at the bottom of the article.
We’ve always known that Spider-Man’s most important battle has been within himself: the struggle between the ordinary obligations of Peter Parker and the extraordinary responsibilities of Spider-Man. But in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker finds that a greater conflict lies ahead. It’s great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield). For Peter Parker, there’s no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone). But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that threaten the city. With the emergence of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter must confront a foe far more powerful than he. And as his old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, Peter comes to realize that all of his enemies have one thing in common: OsCorp...
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will be directed by Marc Webb from a script written by Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci, Jeff Pinkner and James Vanderbilt. The film will star Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker/Spider-Man, Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy, Sally Field as Aunt May, Shailene Woodley as Mary Jane Watson, Paul Giamatti as Rhino, Jamie Foxx is Electro and Chris Cooper as Norman Osborn.
