I have the feeling they are going to repeat the Dark Knight here and eventually kill Gwen off which may not be a good thing but we will see.
If they really wanted to be bold, they could set up the circumstances preceding her death as readers know, and then, have her survive. It would change everything we know about the character and could avoid yet another grim revenge superhero tale. Also, Emma Stone's character is a good deal more well-rounded than the comic book character, who, while appealing, spent a good deal of time sobbing over misunderstandings between her and Peter. The writers killed her off because they didn't know what else to do with her - a cheap way out in any story.
