Happily, it seems that The Superb Spider-Man 2 is now on Disney+, at the least within the US. The film initially launched in 2014 and didn’t go over terribly nicely with critics audiences—granted, neither did the primary Superb, however the sequel additionally didn’t make the cash that Sony hoped that it could. In consequence, the studio’s plans for Spider-Man obtained canned, they needed to resort to a shared custody cope with Marvel Studios for Peter Parker to be within the MCU (which itself nearly fell aside in 2019 as Spider-Man: Far From Dwelling was turning into a billion-dollar theatrical success). Whereas Tom Holland’s Peter has been having fun with life as an Avengers tagalong and stepping into one CG-heavy mess after one other, Sony’s pivoted its post-Superb 2 plans slowly, however absolutely: its Venom is technically within the MCU now due to Spider-Man: No Approach Dwelling, the Madame Internet film with Dakota Johnson and Sydney Sweeney will give it a woman-led superhero film it’s been attempting to get for years now, and Morbius is….doing one thing with the Sinister Six, and presumably October’s Kraven the Hunter film will proceed that bizarre thread.
As for Andrew Garfield’s Peter Parker? That’s additionally a giant query mark; it appeared like No Approach Dwelling was meant to provide him some extra closure that Superb 2 didn’t totally give him. However with how multiverse-heavy Sony and Marvel have been as of late in their very own tasks, it’s simply as possible that there’s an Superb Spider-Man 3 within the works that’s meant to be a model new day for the underappreciated iteration of the webhead. We possible received’t know for awhile, given the state of Hollywood proper now, nevertheless it wouldn’t be too stunning to listen to, contemplating that at this very second, veteran superhero actors returning to outdated roles can also be the recent development studios are latching onto.
Each Superb Spider-Man motion pictures are over on Disney+, joined by Venom, Spider-Man: Homecoming, and Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man trilogy. Tom Holland’s different two sequels, Far From Dwelling and No Approach Dwelling, are at present locked to Starz, as is Venom: Let There Be Carnage.
