SINISTER SIX Still In Development; SPIDER-MAN Expected To Appear In CIVIL WAR
So, we now know that Spider-Man will appear in a Marvel Studios movie before his own solo outing in 2017, but which one? Captain America: Civil War according to a new report, and for those of you thinking Sinister Six is dead, we also have a very interesting update on that...
The Wall Street Journal has some very interesting details about the Marvel Studios/Sony Pictures Spider-Man deal, and they reveal that it was still dead as of December. Obviously that rumoured "Spidey Summit" in January changed things, and Marvel will now have to scramble to make some changes to Captain America: Civil War as the site has heard from their studio insiders that it is indeed the movie which Spider-Man will first appear in (which was obvious, but not guaranteed at such a late stage). As for Sinister Six, they add that while it will no longer be released next November, "The studio will rethink its approach to the film, which remains in development, in light of the new agreement with Marvel." It was clear in those leaked emails that Amy Pascal was keen on making that one happen, and you have to wonder now if it will somehow be reworked into being that 2017 Spider-Man movie. Spider-Man: Sinister Six anyone? Marvel do have a relationship with Drew Goddard after Daredevil. In other news, an official Spidey Twitter account has launched!
