Superhero Hype recently caught up with Kevin Feige to talk about Marvel’s deal with Sony and more. Feige talked a little bit about how their approaching the next incarnation of Spider-Man on the big screen and noted that it will be doing its own thing. He also had high praise for “Spider-Man 2.”
“We’re going to have it be its own thing but some of those Spider-Man films… I think Spider-Man 2 is one of the best superhero movies ever, so that’s a lot to live up to.” Feige said.
When asked if we will see other Spider-Man characters in the MCU, Feige noted that they aren’t really thinking about that at the moment. Marvel and Sony are both focused on making the next Spider-Man film the best it can be.
“Right now, it’s all about producing the new stand-alone Spider-Man movie,” he replied. “That’s what Sony is focused on. That’s what we’re focused on, and whatever happened before that or after that, sort of remains to be seen, but it’s all about producing the best Spider-Man movie we can, certainly within the Sony Universe, next July.”
The next Spider-Man solo film will hit theaters on July 28, 2017.
