After Tony Stark¡¯s death in Avengers: Endgame, are you all set for another heartbreaking news? Spider-Man is no longer a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Yes, Tom Holland wouldn¡¯t be putting on his blue and red costume at least in the near future.
Yes, just when you thought all avengers were safe, there is now a new threat. Tony Stark didn¡¯t die for this, did he?
For the unversed, Sony and Disney have been unable to reach over conclusion in their partnership over Spider-Man, and because of that Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige has pulled out of producing more Spider-Man movies.
Sony holds the right to the character. Marvel¡¯s parent company Disney has had some revenue-sharing disputes from previous Spider-Man movies. Now, Sony and Disney haven¡¯t been able to decide as to how to take this deal forward.
After Disney took over Marvel franchise, it was looking for ¡°a co-financing stake going forward.¡± It reportedly wanted Sony to help fund the movie. Sony apparently turned down the offer and has refused to come back if that was the case. Meanwhile, Marvel boss Kevin Feige has walked away from Spider-Man. With Feige not producing future Spider-Man movies, Tom Holland¡¯s Spider-Man gets removed from MCU.
Here¡¯s what Sony said in a statement.
¡°Much of today¡¯s news about Spider-Man has mischaracterized recent discussions about Kevin Feige¡¯s involvement in the franchise. We are disappointed, but respect Disney¡¯s decision not to have him continue as a lead producer of our next live action Spider-Man film.¡±
¡°We hope this might change in the future, but understand that the many new responsibilities that Disney has given him ¨C including all their newly added Marvel properties ¨C do not allow time for him to work on IP they do not own. Kevin is terrific and we are grateful for his help and guidance and appreciate the path he has helped put us on, which we will continue.¡±
