In a lengthy breakdown of the leaked emails in December 2014, Mashable reported that there had been discussions between Sony and Marvel Studios to bring Spider-Man into the MCU in Captain America: Civil War (which was still called Captain America 3 at the time). And while there is enough information leaked in the attack to write hundreds of articles, we’ll just be talking about how the Spider-Man franchise was impacted, specifically regarding Sony’s partnership with Marvel Studios to bring the superhero to the MCU and Andrew Garfield’s future involvement. What momentum The Amazing Spider-Man 3 had in 2014 all but evaporated at the end of that year when a whole slew of confidential information and internal communications at Sony Pictures was leaked as part of the infamous hack in the wake of the controversial comedy The Interview.

There was even talk of an Aunt May movie at one point.Īnd even though The Sinister Six had a release date of Novem(which pushed back The Amazing Spider-Man 3 until 2018), nothing ever amounted for any of the live-action spinoff projects except for Venom, which opened in theaters in October 2018 and obviously isn't the same version that was envisioned for the Amazing Spider-Man franchise. At one point, there were plans for a movie centered on The Sinister Six (which would have come out before TSAM3), a Venom movie, a female-led movie that would have followed Felicia Hardy/Black Cat (Felicity Jones) and even an entry based on Spider-Man 2099 (who wouldn’t show up until Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse in 2018). The Amazing Spider-Man 3 and a fourth installment in the franchise weren’t the only plans Sony had for its expanded cinematic universe before it all came crashing down. (Image credit: Sony Pictures Releasing) Sony Had Plans To Build Its Own Spider-Man Universe With Multiple Spin-Offs, Including Sinister Six And Venom Movies This information was revealed by Denis Leary (who played Captain Stacy in The Amazing Spider-Man) in an interview with IGN at San Diego Comic-Con in 2015 a little more than half-a-year after there were rumors the movie would bring back Gwen Stacy in some capacity. In August 2017, years after the movie was announced and cancelled, Webb told Den of Geek that the third movie in his franchise would have seen the Web-Slinger face off with the Sinister Six (the team of big baddies being assembled at the end of The Amazing Spider-Man 2) led by none other than the reanimated frozen head of Norman Osborn (Chris Cooper) in an epic battle that would have probably looked like the much-lauded Spider-Man: No Way Home ending or at least the Act 2 ending in the Marvel’s Spider-Man video game.Īnother plot point that was reportedly to play a major part in The Amazing Spider-Man 3 was the idea that Peter Parker would be working on a formula that could bring the dead back to life. (Image credit: Sony Pictures Releasing) The Amazing Spider-Man 3 Would Have Seen Peter Parker Deal With The Sinister Six And The Fallout Of Gwen Stacy’s DeathĪlthough a script for The Amazing Spider-Man 3 has never surfaced, we do have some insight into what the movie was going to be about thanks to interviews director Marc Webb and others connected to the franchise have given over the years. Eleven months later, however, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 was released and met with a lukewarm response critically and financially, underperforming with a worldwide gross of $708.9 million, according to Box Office Mojo, and putting that once bright future in doubt. Sony Pictures vice chairman Jeff Blake was quoted in the article saying the Spider-Man franchise was the studio’s “most important, most successful, and most beloved franchise” while also expressing his optimism for the future.
In June 2013, The Hollywood Reporter published a report announcing that The Amazing Spider-Man 3 and a fourth movie in the franchise would open in theaters on Jand May 4, 2018, respectively.
