Remember the Aunt May movie idea

Here's an article from last December:

‘Spider-Verse’ Sequel Will Focus on Romance with Miles Morales, Launch Spider-Women

Amy Pascal has confirmed that the planned Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse sequel focusing on Spider-Gwen will lead to a Spider-Women spinoff.

First, though, one of Pascal’s favorites, Gwen Stacy, will lead the way. The producer revealed that Sony’s upcoming Into the Spider-Verse sequel, directed by Joaquim Dos Santos (Avatar: The Last Airbender, Voltron) and written by David Callaham (Wonder Woman 1984, Zombieland 2), will be focused on Miles Morales and Gwen Stacy—and will explore a romance between the two, a thread from Lord’s original script that ultimately didn’t fit in Into the Spider-Verse.

The Gwen and Miles adventure will serve as a launching pad for another Gwen-centric tale: Pascal also confirmed that a previously announced Spider-Women spin-off, written by Bek Smith, will feature Spider-Gwen and Cindy Moon (a.k.a. Silk) as well as Jessica Drew (a.k.a. Spider-Woman).

That's all she wanted from the start. The Amazing Spider-Man failed so now she's using the Spiderverse movie to finally get her all-female super hero movie (the "glass ceiling" project).

Honestly, I can understand both viewpoints on this. It sucks Spiderman being pulled from the MCU, and I don’t think we need ANOTHER reboot, but its not like Disney doesn’t own everything else already.

Watch this get reversed much like the James Gunn firing.

Nobody gives a fuck about Miles. And people really won't like portraying gwen as a coal burner.

I wonder if Tom Holland is being replaced or if they would keep using him.

This is the most likely outcome. For all we know the negotiations are still going on and Disney (or greedy reporters) leaked this to make Sony look bad in the eyes of fans or for money

 

[The Nothingness]

My initial thought.

 

[Dom Cruise]

Are you fucking kidding me? So that cliffhanger from the end of Far From Home will never be resolved?

I fucking hate this, what the fuck is Disney's problem?

 

[iRON-mAn]

I admire Sony for declining to get fucked over a barrel, and instead choosing to fuck themselves over the barrel.

 

[Absolutego]

lmao this is great, now that the lunatics are back in charge of the asylum the spiderman movies are going to be cringetastic instead of being the movie equivalent of a white bread toast sandwich.

I wonder if the dude who wanted Spider-Man to be some vegan zoomer exercise obsessive blasting EDM all day to his snapchat followers will finally get his way.

 

[BrunoMattei]

I wonder if Tom Holland is being replaced or if they would keep using him.

My understanding is that Holland is signed to a contract for 3 Spider-Man movies. So Sony could force him to do one for them.

There has to be some funny business from Disney for sure. Despite their COMPLETE fuckups with Star Wars I still believe they're not exceptional enough to lose MCU Spiderman like that.

Or they really are that retarded and fucked up by demanding a drastically bigger cut to recoup losses from their failures with Star Wars.

I have pinned my hopes on Sony bringing about the end of the superhero film era of Hollywood through their sheer incompetence. I'm glad to see they are trying their hardest.
I also want another Sony email leak. Amy Pascal makes for great entertainment.

Amy Pascal makes Kathleen. Kennedy look competent

 

[Dolphin Lundgren]

Obviously what the world needs is 4 more Spiderman movies after 3 were already made ages ago.

 

[BubbleButt]

ROFL I love watching nerds melting down over their shitty movies being raped by corporate greed.

The capeshitter cope from this thread and all over the Internet is amazing

As it happens, D23 is this week. The rumor was that Disney was going to announce...well...

CONCEPT ART: Ride Vehicle Revealed for Disney’s Spider-Man Ride at Disneyland Resort & Disneyland Paris

While Disney has said they will reveal a lot more about the Marvel themed-lands coming to Disney California Adventure park at Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney Studios park at Disneyland Paris at the D23 Expo, we won’t have to wait until then to see the grand reveal of the ride vehicle for the much-anticipated Spider-Man attraction.

Disney has described the attraction as follows:

“Both parks will feature an exciting new attraction where guests of all ages can join the heroes in action. Disney is expanding its story universe by creating a new organization, the Worldwide Engineering Brigade, to be the setting for this experience. Though WEB is grounded in classic characters like Peter Parker, it is an organization that all guests can be a part of – one that invites guests to engage with these iconic heroes like never before.”

“Besides WEB, there’s also brand-new, cutting-edge interface as part of this fun, interactive attraction. Through a blend of never-before-seen technology and practical effects, guests will get to experience for themselves what it is like to have the abilities of a Super Hero.”

According to rumors, guests will be able to sling webs like Spidey in this new ride, but the information above does make it sound like maybe there’s more abilities. We’ll have to wait and see if that’s true, but until then, why don’t we take a look at some never-before-released concept art of the ride vehicle and load area for this upcoming attraction?




So, here is your first look at the Spider-Man colored, red and blue pod-like vehicles waiting for guests to board in the ride’s loading area.



It does appear as if there is a glass window in front of guests in each vehicle. It will be interesting to see what role this plays in endowing guests with super powers, if it does at all. The attraction is reportedly in 3-D (requiring glasses), but as you read above, Disney is touting some practical effects as well.

If the vehicle looks somewhat familiar, well, it’s because it has been hiding in the poster advertisement for the California Adventure land released quite some time ago:




It was there all along…

If you look closely, you’ll even spot wall art for “Stark Motors” in the industrial load area for the ride. A similar design (but one that says “Stark Motives”) can be seen on the previously released concept art for the California Adventure building exterior.

So, who’s ready to fight alongside Spider-Man in the new lands Disney is creating at both Disney California Adventure park and Walt Disney Studios park?
