2 weeks Ago By Chris Smith
might be the talk of the town in the Marvel universe, as we’re dying to see Sony and Marvel announce the sequel, but it’s not the only highly-anticipated Spidey movie fans want. Sony still has to deliver the final entry in the trilogy, an animated project that was delayed as soon as hit theaters. If you’re waiting for a release date update, don’t get your hopes up.
A new report suggests that Sony might take its time with this one for a reason I didn’t see coming. Apparently, Sony doesn’t know how to end . As a big fan of the films, I hope Sony isn’t going to ruin this one too.
I’m ready to accept whatever Sony does with , but better be amazing. . Sign up for the most interesting tech & entertainment news out there.
By signing up, I agree to the and have reviewed the When Sony announced the delay, I said it’s actually great news. I want the third installment in the story to be just as good as the previous ones. I don’t mean just the story, but the animation and the music.
It’s the whole package that makes this story so good. The is my favorite Sony adventure, and I say that as an MCU fan who favors the MCU’s Peter Parker over the others. Still, Sony absolutely nailed it with the two episodes released so far that I’d hate to see it fumble the finale.
That delay seemed to be related to the actual job of animating the third part. It made sense, considering what we saw in the previous episodes. The animation is a large reason the stories are so good.
It allows Sony to add a layer to the story that’s not exactly possible in live-action. But fast-forward to mid-November 2024, and we have some unexpected developments. First, Sony installed a teaser a few days ago in New York, which suggested a release date announcement was imminent.
However, that wasn’t the case. Instead, it was part of a Sony promo for its latest TVs. That’s according to Brand Davis and his guests.
More disturbing is something that Davis shared himself. He says is “very far off,” and that it might not even be animated. That’s because Sony restarted the script after the release.
Apparently, they don’t have an ending, at least not one they could agree on. Oh, boy! Up until now, I was worried Sony would ruin by demanding too much of what should be essentially a soft reboot for the character. Reports said Sony wanted the movie to be as big as and feature multiversal elements, such as the Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield Spider-Men.
Marvel wanted a more grounded story, which is the way to go. That’s how you rebuild towards another big success. These are rumors, of course, but it makes sense.
Sony wants its Spider-Man Universe (SSU) to rival the MCU, and it’s hurrying us there. But Sony hasn’t learned to make good SSU stories. The only exception is the films.
And yes, I include the Tom Holland movies in the list of Sony-made movies that could be better. While I’ll ultimately accept whatever happens in , assuming the rumors are true and Sony has its way with the story, I don’t want to also have to worry about . This is one movie where Sony should not make mistakes.
What I mean to say is that Sony execs should let creatives cook. Not to mention that Sony and Marvel have a great chance here to link the to and possibly bring this version of Miles Morales (Shameik Moore) to the MCU. For that to happen, should hit theaters well before May 2027, when premieres.
Hopefully, my worries are unwarranted, and we’ll get official news about real soon. On that same note, hopefully, will also see an official announcement soon..
