Even more details have surfaced in the aftermath ofMarvel and Sony’s massive announcementthatSpider-Manis joining theMarvel Cinematic Universe.A report from earlier todayrevealed that Sony’sSpider-ManspinoffThe Sinister Sixis still happening, but now another report fromVarietyhas confirmed the previous story, while adding that the studio’s other spinoffs,Venomand an untitled movie featuring the female characters in theSpider-Manuniverse, are still in the works. However, Marvel’sKevin Feigewill not be involved in these spinoffs.
The deal announced last night revealed thatKevin FeigeandAmy Pascalwill produce Sony’s newSpider-Manstandalone movie, which is set for release on July 30, 2025, but it was not ultimately clear ifKevin Feigewill be involved in any potential sequels, or the previously announced spinoffs. It’s not entirely surprising thatKevin Feigewon’t be involved in the spinoffs, since he has an ambitiousMarvel Phase Threeslate to develop, which includes nine movies being released in the span of three years.
In more unsurprising news,Varietyreports that The Amazing Spider-Man 3 has been completely cancelled by Sony. This makes sense since we reported earlier today that essentially the entire team behindThe Amazing Spider-ManandThe Amazing Spider-Man 2, including starAndrew Garfieldand directorMarc Webb, will not be back for the newSpider-Manmovie.
The Sinister Six and Venom had been previously confirmed by Sony Pictures, but the all-female spinoff had never been officially announced, following a rumor that surfaced back in October. It remains unclear if The Sinister Six directorDrew Goddardand Venom filmmakerAlex Kurtzmanare still attached to their respective projects. Of course, just because both spinoffs are still in development, that doesn’t mean we’ll be seeing them hitting theaters anytime soon. Are you glad The Sinister Six and Venom are still moving forward?
