Again in April, Disney+ began to progressively add plenty of Spider-Man films to its catalog, from the outdated Sam Raimi trilogy to the significantly much less older Spider-Man: Homecoming and Venom. Additionally added in that blend (ultimately) was 2012’s The Amazing Spider-Man, although it wasn’t clear on the time when its sequel would hit the streamer.
Thankfully, it seems that The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is now on Disney+, a minimum of within the US. The film initially launched in 2014 and didn’t go over terribly properly with critics audiences—granted, neither did the primary Wonderful, however the sequel additionally didn’t make the cash that Sony hoped that it will. Consequently, the studio’s plans for Spider-Man received canned, they needed to resort to a shared custody cope with Marvel Studios for Peter Parker to be within the MCU (which itself almost fell apart in 2019 as Spider-Man: Far From Residence was changing 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-Wonderful 2 plans slowly, however certainly: its Venom is technically within the MCU now due to Spider-Man: No Means Residence, the Madame Web 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 movie will proceed that bizarre thread.
As for Andrew Garfield’s Peter Parker? That’s additionally an enormous query mark; it appeared like No Way Home was meant to provide him some extra closure that Wonderful 2 didn’t solely give him. However with how multiverse-heavy Sony and Marvel have been as of late in their very own tasks, it’s simply as doubtless that there’s an Amazing Spider-Man 3 within the works that’s meant to be a model new day for the underappreciated iteration of the webhead. We doubtless received’t know for awhile, given the state of Hollywood proper now, nevertheless it wouldn’t be too shocking to listen to, contemplating that at this very second, veteran superhero actors returning to outdated roles can be the recent development studios are latching onto.
Each Wonderful Spider-Man films 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 Residence and No Means Residence, are presently locked to Starz, as is Venom: Let There Be Carnage.
