I'm here today to share my opinion on why Sony should get the rights to DareDevil and how he could tie in to the Sony Cinematic Universe. Thanks to SpiderManFan99 for the help.
"The Amazing Spider-Man 2" is coming next year and "The Amazing Spider-Man 3" in 2016 with "The Amazing Spider-Man 4" in 2018. However, Marc Webb has stated that the fourth movie may not necessarily be a Spider-Man movie but from that universe. Hmm, interesting. So what could it be?
Sony's Cinematic Universe will, by 2018, feature four films- All Spider-Man movies. But after Marc Webb's comments on the fourth not necessarily being a Spider-Man movie, lots of rumors have been swung around(Get it, SWUNG ;D). What should it be in my opinion, A TEAM-UP. "But Sony only have the rights to Spider-Man!" Yes but look who comes with that.
Spider-Man's own little team with Venom and Black Cat. Awesome. This could have a good script, good characters, but... anymore heroes? Get the rights to DareDevil. Here's a few reasons why:
Spider-Man and Daredevil both share one of the same main villains- KINGPIN. They along with Black Cat and Venom know have a good villain and one to add to the rumored sinister six which would help rather than cramming all there build ups into three Spider-Man films. Kingpin's background can be saved for a Daredevil solo movie.
They'll quite simply look cool on the big screen. Look at the first image. They appeared together before in the animated Spider-Man film "Daredevil vs. Spider-Man" which is a really cool movie. Find it.
Getting the rights to Daredevil will build up the Sony Cinematic Universe by adding another franchise. Sony are lacking in them, realistically they can only make two, maybe three, franchises. If this (VERY unlikely) move happens, this is how the SCU could end up looking like:
2012- THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN
2014- THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2
2016- THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 3
2018- Ok, so TASM 4. So in summary, this, "not really a Spidey movie" should be a team up with the characters stated in this article. The title- "MARVEL TRINITY" or "MANHATTAN'S FINEST".
2019- VENOM
2020- THE MAN WITHOUT FEAR
