Marvel and Sony agree on new ‘Spider-Man’ movie
    2019-09-30  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

AFTER publicly parting ways over a deal gone south, Disney/Marvel and Sony are back at the table and have struck a deal that would see Marvel produce another “Spider-Man” film for Sony. The new film even has a release date: July 16, 2021. Jon Watts, the filmmaker behind the previous two “Spider-Man” films, is in talks to direct.

“I am thrilled that Spidey’s journey in the MCU will continue, and I and all of us at Marvel Studios are very excited that we get to keep working on it,” said Marvel topper Kevin Feige.

Also as part of the arrangement, “Spider-Man” will appear in a future Marvel movie.

In 2015, Marvel and Sony unveiled an unprecedented intra-studio partnership that produced not only two well-regarded and massive hits with “Spider-Man: Homecoming” and this summer’s “Spider-Man: Far From Home,” but it also took the character, whose movie rights are owned by Sony, and put him into the Marvel Cinematic Universe where the hero became one of its key players.

In August, however, the relationship broke down, with the announcement that Feige would no longer oversee the production of the “Spider-Man” movies. The dispute unleashed considerable angst among fans, giving rise to a #SaveSpiderMan hashtag on Twitter.

Terms of the new deal were not revealed, but it will allow Marvel and its chief Feige to produce and run creative point on one more movie that would star Tom Holland, the actor who is the current incarnation of the web-slinging superhero. Depending on how things go, more movies could be in the offing.

The partnership between Sony and Marvel has been fruitful at the box office. “Homecoming” made US$880.1 million and featured Marvel character Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), while Spider-Man was a key part of 2018’s “Avengers: Infinity War” and had a small but powerful role in this year’s “Avengers: Endgame.” Both films grossed more than US$2 billion, with “Endgame” standing as the top film of all time.
