Spider-Man 4 and Beyond the Spider-Verse won’t release in the same year
After the massive Kraven flop that delivered the final proof that Sony can't make movies featuring the Spider-Man universe (SSU) that fans actually want to watch, we heard all sorts of rumors concerning the SSU, including one I thought was exciting. Reportedly, Sony has to rewrite the Spider-Man 4 story, as Marvel isn't happy with it.
I absolutely want Spider-Man 4 to be a great movie, and I'm worried that Sony might ruin it by wanting it to be a sort of No Way Home 2 multiverse adventure. The rumor made sense because earlier rumors said that Sony and Marvel had to delay Spider-Man 4 to December 2026 to avoid production and scheduling conflicts with Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey.
Then there's Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, which is even more exciting. Recent rumors said that Sony hasn't even started work on the animated feature, as it doesn't know how to end the story of Miles Morales (Shameik Moore).
I said at the time that the quality of Beyond the Spider-Verse is even more important than Spider-Man 4. The latter has a great crutch in the MCU, as Marvel's universe will make fans forgive any issues with Spider-Man 4. Rumors also said the final Spider-Verse installment won't be ready next year.
Fast-forward to late December, and we have more developments on Sony's purported plans for Spider-Man 4 and Beyond the Spider-Verse. Apparently, Sony doesn't want both movies in theaters in the same year. Before I tell you why that could be great news for fans, I will warn you that some spoilers might follow.
