Sony Exec Reveals There's a Plan to Connect Spider-Man to the Studio's Other Marvel Movies

Sony Exec Reveals There's a Plan to Connect Spider-Man to the Studio's Other Marvel Movies

As you probably know, Disney doesn’t own the rights to every Marvel character and Sony is the rights-holder for Spider-Man and a slew of other characters.

While Spider-Man is currently part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe thanks to an agreement between the two studios, Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group President Sanford Panitch says that there is a plan to connect the two universes.

Panitch says that the studio doesn’t consider their characters to be part of a “Spidey-verse.”

“We don’t really think of our 900 characters as the Spidey-verse,” he told Variety. “We have a Marvel universe. The volume of characters we have — you know, wait until you see this next Venom. You don’t miss Spider-Man.”

He added, “It’ll be exciting if they do meet, right?”

The first movie in the Sony Pictures Universe of Marvel Characters was the box office smash Venom in 2018. The sequel, Venom: Let There Be Carnage, will be released on September 24. Future movies include Morbius in 2022 and Kraven the Hunter in 2023.

It’s unclear what Tom Holland‘s future with Spider-Man will be following the release of Spider-Men: No Way Home in December. But, Panitch talked about the plans to connect the character to Sony’s universe.

“There actually is a plan,” he said. “I think now maybe it’s getting a little more clear for people where we’re headed and I think when No Way Home comes out, even more will be revealed.”

Panitch was vague when asked about Spider-Man’s future in the MCU.

“The great thing is we have this very excellent relationship with Kevin [Feige],” he said. “There’s an incredible sandbox there to play with. We want those MCU movies to be absolutely huge, because that’s great for us and our Marvel characters, and I think that’s the same thing on their side. But we have a great relationship. There’s lots of opportunities, I think, that are going to happen.”

Spider-Man: No Way Home wrapped filming in March and some interesting info was released.

ISRO shortlists 15 firms for transfer of EV battery tech

ISRO shortlists 15 firms for transfer of EV battery tech This move could make EVs cheaper, since imported Li ion batteries constitute the big expense factor of EVs. Isro has shortlisted 15 firms to transfer the manufacturing technology of lithium-ion (Li ion) batteries for electric vehicles (EV). This move could make EVs cheaper, since imported Li ion batteries constitute the big expense factor of EVs. “We have communicated to the shortlisted firms that they will have to give a one-time fee of `1 crore. We have avoided firms with exposure to foreign equity in identifying the qualifying industrial houses or start-ups,” S Somanath, director, Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC), the rocket sciences node of ISRO, told FE. “The final move will depend on their response,” he said, declining to name the firms. As many as 141 companies had applied for request for qualifications (RFQs) in connection with the technology transfer. It was a small battery of 12 scientists in VSSC in Thiruvananth...

Sóller hike followed by a healthy vegan lunch

We got a group of friends together (of various ages and fitness levels) to hike around the hills surrounding the Mallorcan town of Sóller, in the northwest of the island. There are many quite easy trails but usually, it involves a bit of hiking up and downhill. We began our walk at the first roundabout after the tunnel and climbed for about 25 minutes uphill after that it was reasonably flat for the next hour or so. The final part was decent into the town of Sóller where we had booked a private vegan brunch for our group. Barbara and Martjin opened Ecocirer in March 2018 as a vegan hotel with 6 bedrooms in the town of Sóller. It is the ideal accommodation for a family celebration if you would like to enjoy healthy vegan food with plenty of activities to get you out into the beautiful nature surrounding the picturesque town. The expe...
