Jamie Foxx recently appeared on “The Tonight Show” to talk about his upcoming role as as Max “Electro” Dillon in Marc Webb’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2. The film is a sequel to the 2012 film The Amazing Spider-Man. The studio hired James Vanderbilt to write the screenplay and Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci to re-write it. Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Jamie Foxx, Dane DeHaan, Shailene Woodley, Paul Giamatti, Denis Leary,Colm Feore, Chris Cooper, Sally Field, Chris Zylka, Marton Csokas, and Felicity Jones are set to star.

During the interview with Jay Leno, Jamie Foxx explained his character and what he would look and sound like.

“My sister is my hair stylist and she created the ‘Django’ look. Ray Charles and things like that. I told her that, when I’m the nerd guy, I want to be the first black man with a comb-over. I told her, ‘Make me look like I would look if I never made it.'”

In the 2014 sequel, Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield) finds life is busy – between taking out the bad guys as Spider-Man and spending time with the person he loves, Gwen (Emma Stone), high school graduation can’t come quickly enough. Peter hasn’t forgotten about the promise he made to Gwen’s father to protect her by staying away – but that’s a promise he just can’t keep. Things will change for Peter when a new villain, Electro, emerges, an old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, and Peter uncovers new clues about his past.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 hits theaters on May 2, 2014. You can watch the clip from the interview below:
