Tom Holland you should have never said that it was okay if Spider-Man could be gay. Now see what you’ve done! We’re just kidding….. Unless. Besides, before pointing fingers at who’s at fault here, let us just break your heart first. Spider-Man is no longer a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Sony Terminates Disney’s Rights Over Spider-Man
Yes, you’ve read that right. Spider-Man is no longer part of the MCU because Marvel Studios will no longer produce any more Spider-Man movies. This is because of the fall out of Sony and Disney at reaching new terms. According to Deadline, this fall out was due to,
an inability by Disney and Sony Pictures to reach new terms that would have given the former a co-financing stake going forward.
Don’t worry though. The next two projects concerning our beloved spidey will go on as scheduled, it’s just that they won’t be produced by Marvel.
The Real Reason Behind The Fall Out Between Disney and Sony
Disney seems to have requested all potential Spider-Man projects to be a 50/50 co-financing agreement between Marvel and Sony, but the latter has declined. Instead, Sony suggested leaving the present agreement intact, meaning that Marvel would continue to receive roughly 5% of the first dollar gross while preserving the merchandising rights that Disney refused.
The Fans Are Furious and Have Taken To Twitter
