When Harry Osborn is browsing through Oscorp’s database of secret projects, one of the files is titled “Venom Storage.” One mention of the character still remains in the film though.
The Venom symbiote appears briefly in early trailers for The Amazing Spider-Man 2, but strangely, it was later replaced with Doctor Octopus’s arms.
The distinguished researchers plaque that appears in these scenes are names of actual past naval officers from the school. The film features a little real-life tie-in with the SUNY Maritime College, where the Ravencroft exteriors were filmed. An actual doctor in the comics, she’s treated villains such as Electro, Vulture, Carnage, and Doctor Octopus in her career. Ashley Kafka, the founder of the institute in the comics. KafkaesqueĪside from arguably being the film’s most over-the-top character, the Ravencroft scientist who experiments on Electro is a male version of Dr. In the comics, a facility of the same name exists, although it’s a government funded psychiatric hospital for supervillains. In the film, the Ravencroft Institute is a secret Oscorp facility. His name is Gustav Fiers, and in a trilogy of Spider-Man novels, he’s a super-criminal known as the Gentleman who assembles a team of villains under the Sinister Six moniker. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 finally reveals the identity of that mysterious man from the end of the first film.
