WonderCon 2012: “The Amazing Spider-Man” Roundtable Interview With Emma Stone and Marc Webb Dan Koelsch, March 18, 2012March 18, 2012 Before their panel at WonderCon on Saturday, I and other reporters got to sit down with director Marc Webb and Gwen Stacy herself, Emma Stone, from The Amazing Spider-Man.
