We've all been left with a lot of questions about Spider-Man's future thanks to Sony's decision to forge ahead with spinoffs revolving around characters like Venom, Silver Sable, and Black Cat, with the biggest being how Marvel's wall-crawler will factor into those spinoffs and whether he even exists in that world. It's been said that they're separate but how can Venom be Venom without Peter Parker?
Who knows at this point but during an interview at the world premiere of Spider-Man: Homecoming, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige confirmed that their Spider-Man will NOT appear in Venom.
"No," he confirmed when asked about Tom Holland's Spider-Man showing up there. "No, I think they’re focusing on making a great Venom movie, and I don’t know much about it, but I know they’re off to a good start with Tom Hardy." We've heard that last bit before but the fact that Spider-Man won't even make a cameo appearance is concerning in regards to how the spinoff will work.
Are we getting an Eddie Brock who has never crossed paths with Peter Parker and has a totally different origin story or one who has but only done so off screen with a few vague references to that? We're obviously going to have to wait and see but share your thoughts in the comments section below.
