In issue 215 of Total Film magazine , Hollywood funny girl Emma Stone reveals that her Gwen Stacy is no damsel in distress in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 .

Inside the issue - which is available for just £1.99 on your iPad - Stone tells us that, unlike Kirsten Dunst's Mary Jane in Sam Raimi's Spidey flicks, Gwen knows how to look after herself.

When we asked her how many times Spider-Man saves her in the upcoming sequel, Stone replied: "Not many. I can think of one important instance.
