Across The Spider-Verse’s Villain Success Makes A Cancelled Spider-Man Movie A Huge Possibility

Summary

• Sony had plans to expand on Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man franchise with several spinoffs, including a Sinister Six movie.
• Spider-Man 2099 would have been a part of this franchise, with plans for a 2017 film centered around his origin story.
• The success of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse could lead to the revival of these plans, possibly in an animated spinoff exploring Spider-Man 2099's origin and character development.

Sony's canceled plans for a film franchise centered on Andrew Garfield's web-head included a project that would have explored a Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse fan-favorite, and these plans could now be revived. Prior to Tom Holland debuting as Peter Parker, a.k.a. Spider-Man, in the MCU, Sony had planned to expand on the storylines established in Marc Webb's The Amazing Spider-Man and its 2014 sequel. These plans involved ideas for eight spinoffs and sequels being produced in the universe of Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man, which would have spanned five years and introduced many popular faces into live-action, though these plans would be dashed after the deal between Sony and Marvel Studios began.
Sony's proposed The Amazing Spider-Man franchise plans would have introduced characters such as Venom, Carnage, Felicia Hardy's Black Cat, Jackal, and Scorpion to the live-action franchise. The pinnacle of these plans, however, would have seen Sony produce a Sinister Six movie, which would have pitted Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man against several iconic villains including Rhino, Vulture, Doctor Octopus, Mysterio, Kraven the Hunter, and Green Goblin. As well as a Sinister Six project, Sony also had plans in place to focus on yet another villain who later had a pivotal role in 2023's Miles Morales-centric animated adventure Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, and this complex character's newfound popularity could resurrect these plans.
