Spider-Man is coming to the Marvel Cinematic Universe!...

It's been long rumoured and finally it's been officially announced. Sony Entertainment will be collaborating with Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige co-producing with Sony's Amy Pascal, to bring Spider-Man into the Marvel Cinematic Universe and collaborate on the next solo film to be released 28/07/2017. It's worth noting two things from the statement the new Spider-Man will first appear in a Marvel cinematic Universe film, most likely this will be Captain America: Civil War, and that Sony still have financial and creative control along with distribution rights and still have ownership of the character. I just hope that they take advantage of having the likes of Kevin Feige when creating the next film and also that this will turn out to be the Spider-Man we've all been hoping for.

On a disappointing note to this announcement it is being reported that Andrew Garfield will not be keeping his role as Spider-Man in these future instalments which is a shame as I really enjoyed his portrayal of the character. If this is true we will get a new casting for the character which will surely happen soon if it he will first be appearing in Civil War as rumoured. The big question is, will this be Peter Parker Spider-Man? Could they decide to go with Miles Morales, if they were too it would certainly be controversial but considering the amount of Peter Parker we have had in recent years Mile Morales wouldn't be unwelcome as far as I'm concerned. But the fact this this is most likely linking in with Civil War the chances are much higher that this will still be Peter Parker hitting the big screen.

I look forward to more news and announcements on this one. For the official Marvel release click the link below.
