'Amazing Spider-Man 2' Cast Going to Singapore for Earth Hour 2014


WWF Singapore and Earth Hour Global today announced that the director, producers, and cast of the highly "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" will be coming to Singapore to celebrate this year’s global flagship event for Earth Hour to be held at The Float@Marina Bay on Saturday March 29 at 8:30PM. Leading stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, and Jamie Foxx will all attend the event, helping switch off the lights across Singapore’s signature Marina Bay skyline. The stars will also be throwing their support behind Earth Hour’s newly launched crowdfunding and crowdsourcing platform – Earth Hour Blue, with a message to individuals across the world to become Super Heroes for the planet. Some of the film's stars have also shown support by backing some projects from the site.

Andrew Garfield, who plays Peter Parker/Spider-Man, is supporting the Earth Hour Blue project ‘A Flame Called Hope’. The project aims to provide clean bio-gas energy for local communities in Nepal, thereby reducing deforestation and providing an alternate means of livelihood for families in the area.

Emma Stone, who plays Gwen Stacy in the film, has chosen to support the Earth Hour Blue ‘Puppy Protectors’ project, which aims to train sniffer dog puppies and their handlers to track animals, find wildlife crime scenes, detect illegal trade items, and chase down poachers with the rangers on the frontlines of Chitwan National Park, Nepal.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 director Marc Webb is backing the ‘Power up a Ranger’ project in Indonesia, which aims to provide better equipment for WWF Rangers protecting Indonesia’s endangered wildlife such as the Sumatran Tiger, Elephant, Rhino and Orangutan and their forest habitat.

Now run globally from Singapore at the heart of Asia, Earth Hour has rapidly grown to involve hundreds of millions of people from all walks of life and global landmarks across 7000 cities and towns and 154 countries and territories.
