THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 Post Credits Scene Is A Clip From X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST

Wait, what? So this is certainly a surprise! Opening today in the UK and other markets, the post credits scene for Sony's The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has been confirmed as being a clip from Fox's X-Men Days of Future Past?!

This is surprising.

With the recent Marvel films, post-credit scenes have become pretty much expected and after 2012's Amazing Spider-Man also featured it's own post-credit scene, it should come as no surprise to find out the same has been planned for The Amazing Spider-Man 2.

But, recently confirmed by Sony, a clip from the upcoming Days of Future Past, will instead be shown after the credits of The Amazing Spider-Man 2. The scenes shown, will feature Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence), Toad (Evan Jonigkeit) and Havok (Lucas Till) taking on William Stryker (Josh Helman).

What's the reason for this happening? Unknown at the moment, but could this be the beginning of some form of collaboration between the usually competing Sony and Fox? This has not been the first attempt to link Marvel franchises together (some will remember Oscorp Tower almost appearing in The Avengers) but is this yet another (unlikely but possible) attempt to create a cohesive Marvel Universe? Or is it purely a strange - and frankly confusing for audiences at least - marketing move?

I'd rather the post credit scene was a clip from GOTG, if you catch my drift.

Interesting bit of news. However, your speculation is off base.

From the source article, "Now this isn't a post-credits sting as we've seen before in the Marvel universe, setting up some sort of crossover between the two worlds.".

They're not connected.

I would be hilarious if Sony and FOX are trying to team up to take on Marvel Studios............ but I highly doubt it.

It's funny how Marvel has the other studios chasing their tails, trying to one up on them. It's hilariously pathetic.

Having seen it today I can say that it did happen. It doesn't connect the franchises or anything, just a poorly edited and rushed scene from DOFP. Bit of a let down after credits and the scene has actually slightly lowered my expectations for the upcoming x-flick

Empire is a legit source, and there are people who saw the movie today saying it's true...

Funny, elsewhere they said the post credit scene reveals who the shadowy figure was in the first movie. WHO is it? I don't know because I didn't read that far...don't want to spoil any surprises.lol

Well, since it is well known that Sony has moneyproblem, i would not be so suprised if they at the end will team up with either Fox or Marvel Studios. And after all, Sonys moneyproblem can be a reason for that postcredit scene (Fox paying them for having it) and nothing more
