I am not too knowledgeable about Spiderman comics but if the enter the spiderverse animated movie is any indication, they could possibly do many live action stories without involving too much of the MCU. And they got Venom already setup.
They get to have a critically acclaimed live action Spider-man in the biggest cinematic universe currently, guaranteed $800m floor grossing movie, work with Kevin Feige which means better quality for Venom 2/Morbius/Aunt May Spy movie.
I don't see Sony selling for a couple years at least. As far as the rights go, the Forbes writer states it's his understanding the the rights are Non-Transferable but he isn't completely positive. Probably nobody knows for sure besides Sony and Disney/Marvel. I just don't see Disney not at the very least buying the rights back, especially if the rights are transferable. If Apple were to get those rights, Marvel would never see Spider-Man again.
Nah...just that leak email shit. So far only Morbius, Venom 2 and Black Cat are confirmed.
If we rewind a few years, it was seen as basically never going to happen. So just the fact that we got what we got is more than I ever expected. Would love to see one more film to wrap up the MCU Spidey story, though.
Why would Sony-owned characters being a different age stop Sony from using them?
I'd watch a Zendaya MCU movie. I'm curious as to what her contract looks like.
I will never understand why Morbius of all things was greenlit. A Spot movie would probably rbrm be better than that.
I'm guessing it's because he's one of the more easier of the villains/allies to design a movie around being a tragic vampire like the billions of tragic vampire compared to like shocker or whatever
No it wouldn't but keep thinking that. Last I checked people were out in droves marching for other issues. Have we seen millions marching outside for the mcu spiderman? There are people who have way more to lose if humanity falls or gets destroyed. Billions of dollars, huge family trees/ traditions, and Bruce Wayne like family legacy's in the history books. If they aren't worrying about losing that then Why would I be worried about losing my little bit of property?
I could see that being offset by angry Sony fanboys attacking Disney employees.
Why would Apple buy Sony Pictures, when they explored and ultimately passed on Time Warner, weren't even competitive for the Fox assets, didn't go for either CBS or Viacom?
I doubt these specific contract terms are known to any outsider.
Did you even watch those movies or just the trailer?
But the Russos wanted Spider-Man for the relationship with Tony and we're adamant he be included the way he was in CW.
We don't know this. Watts isn't under contract for anymore films and other studios are trying to poach him, while Holland is free to leave after the next movie.
Tom Watts isn't contracted for any more.
*10 years later at an E3 Press Conference* "Ladies and Gentlemen, we are excited to announce, and finally unveil, the Disney PlayStation 6."
You're right. They'll probably do it at a solo scheduled event or at D23.
I think it's more about how Peter's motivation/inspiration is largely linked to Tony (the first superhero he meets, how a large part of his actions is motivated by him wanting to impress IM, the only inspiration he looks up to is Stark); there's something off-putting in making Spider-Man so intertwined with a billionaire who has one of the greyest legacies in the MCU.
