Here Comes the Spider-Man

An Unprecedented Deal with Sony/Marvel Will Bring the World Famous Wall Crawler Into the MCU


Unless you have been living under a rock, you've probably read all about the deal that Sony and Marvel have struck to bring Marvel's (arguably) most recognizable character into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.  The Web Slinger will be introduced to the MCU through an existing and already announced Marvel Studios film and then he will make his solo film debut on July 28, 2017.  This is amazing, spectacular, superior (see what I did there?) news!  When the Sony hack happened, e-mails were made public that Sony/Marvel had spoken about this in the past, so this announcement wasn't totally out of left field, but the more time that passed this seemed more like a fanboy fever dream than anything that would actually come to pass.  Now that we know that this is a go, and it's settled in, it's time for the best part of the process: Wild, unbridled, unsubstantiated speculation!!!
