Here’s how Spider-Man fits into the Marvel Cinematic Universe!
By Daniel Wood
The results of the Spidey Summit (if it did actually happen) and Amy Pascal’s stepping down have led to the greatest moment in comic book movie history – Spider-Man is joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Spider-Man will be appearing in an upcoming Marvel film before the next installment in Sony’s franchise (which appears to be another reboot) takes place in 2017.
So let’s take a look at how Spider-Man fits into the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s slate of films now!
As you can see Spider-Man is taking Thor: Ragnarok’s original slot, with Black Panther, Captain Marvel and Inhumans all getting consequently pushed back to make room for Spider-Man, but I’m sure not many people will mind too much!
It’s unlikely that Spider-Man will be appearing in this year’s Avengers Age of Ultron (unless they quickly film a surprise end-credit sequence) and I can’t see Spider-Man appearing in either Doctor Strange or Guardians of the Galaxy 2 so I’m going to go out on a limb and suggest that Spider-Man is all-but confirmed to appear in Captain America: Civil War.
Quite an impressive slate of films isn’t it!
