Movie news site TheWrap.com is reporting that Sony Pictures Entertainment Co-Chairman Amy Pascal told investors:
“We are going to access Marvel’s full world of Spider-Man characters, so be on the lookout for new heroes and villains.”
Director Marc Webb has said in the past that the current story was originally envisioned as a trilogy, so the already greenlit Amazing Spider-Man 4 could be something different. Perhaps a launchpad for characters like Black Cat and Venom to get their own films? Or, for an incredibly far-fetched theory, perhaps a Clone Saga movie leading to a Scarlet Spider spinoff? Doubtful, but hey, anything’s possible! Could even be Spider-Girl! Or hey, the Prowler!
PLUS: In other movie news, viral site TheDailyBugle.tumblr.com continues its “news articles” with a piece by Joy Mercado about Norman Osborn’s experimental hydroelectric power plant, including a statement by Osborn employee Donald Menken. Nice references for us webheads!
Thanks to comicbookresources.com for pointing out both of these stories.
Two words: Hypno Hustler
@#2-I think YES to Morbius, maybe to Venom but a no for Norman. I mean you’d need to do the whole HAMMER thing for his film and they only have the Spider-Man characters to play with
This rumor comes up every 6 months. I think Venom and Norman and maybe Morbius are the only ones that could support their own films.
…blah blah blah out of my cold, dead fingers, Marvel quote goes here.
