Although all three of the MCU Spider-Man movies have “home” in the title, Spidey didn’t feel like he really came home until the very end of Spider-Man: No Way Home. That’s when Peter Parker walked into a squalid New York City apartment, knit together a home-made suit, and remembered his late parent-figure’s words about power and responsibility. So why the heck is Marvel unsure about what to do next?
From the first stories by Steve Ditko and Stan Lee to the married father of two in Jonathan Hickman and Marco Checchetto’s Ultimate Spider-Man, Spider-Man is almost always a hard-luck hero, a guy who struggles to maintain his personal life, limited financial budget, and Spidey responsibilities. The MCU Spider-Man movies have certainly included aspects of those standards, but they’ve always been mitigated by the fact that this Spider-Man has a mentor in the ultra-rich Tony Stark...

There were tons of cool scenes that were not included in the theatrical versions of Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man movies, with J.K. Simmons wearing a Spider-Man suit probably the most notable of all the deleted ones. However, the director decided to include this in the extended cut of Spider-Man 2 (2004) so it’s not completely wasted.
Tobey Maguire in Spider-Man
Tobey Maguire’s Peter Parker has become the definitive version of the character as it introduced the franchise to the world, but Simmons’ portrayal of J. Jonah Jameson was truly the most unforgettable.
Spider-Man 2 Deleted Scene Was J.K. Simmons’ Most Iconic Look
Many extended and new scenes were supplemented in the 2007 edition of Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 2, commonly called as Spider-Man 2.1, and a major addition was J.K. Simmons dressed up as Spider-Man. Fans who saw the theatrical version may get confused as this scene...

Sylvester Stallone allegedly had a bad rap among the directors of his earlier movies, who complained that the actor took control over some of their creative decisions. This reputation made one director not want to work with him, despite the First Blood actor expressing interest in the role. Jim Gillespie finally had to give up his premonitions, as the studio could find no other A-listers except Stallone for the role in 2002’s D-Tox.
D-Tox director Jim Gillespie initially didn’t want Sylvester Stallone in his movie
Gillespie had his own vision for the psychological thriller film based on the novel Jitter Joint. Stallone’s lead character is a mentally tortured federal agent hunting down serial killers. However, things were not how Gillespie thought it would be.

Ryan Millsap, former CEO and owner of Blackhall Studios, made a name for himself in Atlanta as an executive who encouraged diversity. But, per a report published by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution and ProPublica, he may not have been as pro-diversity and inclusion as he appeared.
This week, ProPublica staffer Nicole Carr and Atlanta Journal-Constitution senior editor Mike Jordan published an investigation that looked into hundreds of pages of text messages between Millsap and his ex-girlfriend, Christy Hockmeyer, that were submitted as evidence in a lawsuit against him.
His texts, mostly from 2019, included comments about “Fucking Black people” and “nasty Jews,” as well as other racist and antisemitic views. The pages were released due to a legal dispute, which includes various filings, between the real estate developer and his former attorney, John Da Grosa Smith.
“Ryan’s public persona is different from who he is,” Smith wrote in one of the filings.

Riz Ahmed is now a Wes Anderson featured player.
The actor, last seen in Apple’s love drama Fingernails, has joined the roster of acclaimed auteur’s latest project, an untitled feature that is now shooting in Berlin.
Plot details are being kept in the breast pocket, but it is shaping up to be another ensemble piece with several of his usual cadre of artists.
Benicio Del Toro and Bill Murray are also on the call sheet for the project. The feature has a script from Anderson and Roman Coppola, who has worked on five of the filmmaker’s movies. Michael Cera, also cast in the picture, is among the other Anderson first-timers.
The project was at one point eying a fall 2023 start, but the twin strikes last year pushed the start of production.

Even Mary Jane wonders if we really need to revisit Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man universe. Kirsten Dunst is worried about messing with a good thing.
During an interview with IndieWire, the Civil War actress was questioned about returning to the world where Tobey Maguire was Peter Parker. The former Mary Jane Watson wasn’t too hot on the idea, asking, “Honestly, do we need it?”
She’s right. Considering the cinema is choked with remakes, reboots, and readapting adaptations of other people’s adaptations, do we need to revisit Raimi’s films after nearly two decades?
However, superfans of the 2000s Spider-Man trilogy could find a glimmer of hope in Dunst’s comments. She may be back if everything falls into place:
“I don’t think we need that. I don’t know. It was so long ago. I just don’t know how they would, what the story would be.

We have seen time and time again how Netflix can be a place where movies and shows get rediscovered. It is also a place where shows and movies can become extremely popular through word of mouth — mostly because Netflix's own marketing efforts aren't enough to rival traditional Hollywood studios. This is how something like "Stranger Things" became a phenomenon, and how "Suits" got a new chance at life. Video stores might be dead, but that hasn't stopped audiences from discovering things they might have otherwise missed.
Such is the case with a new Korean thriller series making waves and climbing up the Netflix charts. "Parasyte: The Grey" is the new show from Yeon Sang-ho, director of "Train to Busan" and "Hellbound." It adapts Hitoshi Iwaaki's best-selling manga, which is about a high schooler facing an alien invasion after a parasite tries to take over his brain but instead manages only to infect his arm.

From 2002 to 2007, director Sam Raimi helmed three Spider-Man movies for Sony. The films starred Tobey Maguire as the title hero, and they were all massive hits, pushing open the door for a superhero renaissance that dominated the 2010s. The series ended when "Spider-Man 3," despite making nearly $900 million at the worldwide box office, wasn't as big a hit as the studio wanted. The budget for that film was also wildly high, costing as much as $350 million to make, and fans weren't as excited by the sloppy storytelling and strange Venom storyline.
Rather than push ahead with "Spider-Man 4," Sony elected to wait five years and reboot the continuity with "The Amazing Spider-Man" in 2012. That continuity was short-lived, ending in 2014 with the release of "The Amazing Spider-Man 2." Fan goodwill was at an all-time low. From there, a tertiary Spider-Man appeared in the now-flourishing Marvel Cinematic Universe.

One would be forgiven for not having thought about "Madame Web" for several weeks, but as the movie's theatrical run has wound down, it has come to our attention that its running total is in a pretty darkly hilarious place. Sony's latest Marvel Comics adaptation is currently just a few dollars (relatively speaking) shy of breaking $100 million worldwide. And given that it doesn't seem to be playing in any theaters right now, it will probably be stuck just shy of that milestone in the history books.
Director S.J. Clarkson's "Madame Web" has sold $99,312,851 worth of tickets worldwide. That includes $43.8 million domestically. Relative to what superhero movies have been making in theaters over the past 20 years, less than $700,000 is right next to nothing. Unfortunately, a combination of factors led to this film's demise. Critics were generally pretty unkind to it. (You can read /Film's "Madame Web" review right here.

The character of Steven Yeun, who is Invincible himself, is on the path of discovering his powers. Being a superhero requires a supervillain who could challenge him. Luckily (or unluckily) for Invincible, a supervillain is already on the hunt to kill him. As fate would have it, however, the villain in Invincible also suffers from the same weakness that Marvel’s Venom suffers from!

The third installment of the Tom Hardy Starer Venom also titled Venom 3: The Last Dance series is all set to make a buzz on the internet thanks to the release date drop being shifted from November 8 to October 25, 2024.
The interesting thing to make headlines is that Venom is becoming a father figure to Peter Parker after trying to kill him. What we mean to say is that, despite Madame Web becoming an enormous failure, the future of this universe is highly dependent on how Venom 3 turns out.
Like any other Sony movie released since the inception of this cinematic universe, Tom Hardy’s Venom: The Last Dance is rumored to star Peter Parker/Spider-Man in some interesting way.

With Wall Street closed in observance of Easter, the stock for worldwide #1 exhibitor AMC Theatres sits at a near-record low of $3.72 after the circuit announced it may sell $250 million in stock because it’s short on cash.
The AMC spin cited disappointing first-quarter 2024 box office, which will end down around nine percent from 2023. However, what went unsaid is April will be much worse.
Last Easter fell on April 9, the same weekend that Universal released “The Super Mario Bros. Movie.” It grossed $575 million of that April’s $900 million total. This year, the month’s biggest contributors will likely be today’s release of “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire,” followed by Alex Garland’s A24 drama “Civil War” (April 12) and Project X horror movie “Abigail” from Universal (April 19). All told, the most optimistic guess for April is $600 million and it could easily be closer to $500 million.

Alan Ritchson had his breakout as a celebrity albeit a little later than some of the rising stars in Hollywood. For instance, Timotheé Chalamet and Jacob Elordi caught the public’s attention before they were 25. While it has not been the same for Ritchson, he is surely living the dream now at 41.
Ritchson’s acting debut was with the role of Aquaman/Arthur Curry on the CW superhero series Smallville. He played numerous other roles in all the years leading up to his breakout role as the titular lead Jack Reacher in Amazon Studios’ series Reacher.

Actor Tom Holland was last seen as Spider-Man in the 2021 blockbuster Spider-Man: No Way Home. The film was known for the reprisal of both Toby Maguire and Andrew Garfield as Spider-Man, teaming up with Holland’s iteration to battle the character’s infamous villains. The film was a major commercial success, earning $1.9 billion at the box office.
While the film had its moments of celebration and fanfare, it ended on a somber note as Peter Parker makes Doctor Strange make the world forget about him to save it. The film ends with the teen superhero starting a new life in New York and continuing his role as Spider-Man. A new report stated that the character would continue on this path, and that makes him vulnerable to be attacked by the Venom symbiote.

It has been reported by E News! that Aaron Taylor-Johnson has not been offered the role of James Bond. Consequently, it appears that he is not in the frontrunner position, and the search for 007 continues. So, producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson now have to continue searching for the right actor.

There are plenty of actors vying for the coveted role, but finding the perfect fit for 007 won’t be easy. James Bond is more than just a character — he’s a cultural icon.

Despite some of the Ssu movies getting mixed or negative reviews (like Morbius), the Ssu keeps going and now has many live-action and animated projects in the works, focusing on Spider-Man’s side characters and villains. ‘Madame Web’ came out on February 14th and didn’t do well, with Dakota Johnson criticizing its development publicly.
Upcoming releases include ‘Kraven the Hunter’ on August 30th, 2024, and ‘Venom: The Last Dance,’ which changed its release date to October 25th instead of November 3rd. ‘Venom’ is the most successful franchise in the Ssu, so it’s not surprising that there are reports of Feige wanting to bring him into the MCU.
Even though “The Last Dance” marks the conclusion of Venom’s current story, it doesn’t signal the end of Venom-related projects. Recently, there have been discussions about an animated R-rated Venom project in the works. Now, a prominent source, CanWeGetSomeToast, has...

Seth Rogen has carved out a very unique niche for himself. As a producer, Rogen has been at the helm of some very successful adaptations of superhero comics like Invincible, The Boys, Tmnt, and Gen V.

The Marvel Comics have a lot more than just a ton of superheroes, and each one of them is incredibly powerful with their own magnificent superpowers. While they all have their respective powers ranging from magic to super strength and a lot of others, some of them are also gifted with immortality. Like Hulk, for one. Or Wolverine. Or Thor.

But while these 3 are often regarded as some of the strongest deathless superheroes — with Point Break even considered to be the most powerful immortal after all the times he came out victorious despite facing the most brutal of villains — there is one other mutant who surpasses all of these characters’ undyingness: Mr. Immortal, aka Craig Hollis.

Since striking a deal with Disney for Spider-Man to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe in 2016, Sony has been focusing on expanding its own cinematic universe, officially known as Sony’s Spider-Man Universe. Although Spider-Man himself hasn’t appeared in this universe, some associated characters have.

This year, two additional movies are set for release: ‘Venom: The Last Dance’ and ‘Kraven the Hunter.’

However, Taylor-Johnson has assured fans that Kraven The Hunter is good and worth exploring in the cinemas.

The movie stars actors Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bacharch. Jeff Kaplan and Ian Springer have penned a draft of the screen with Josh Friedman working on a version of it as well.
The Fantastic Four are regarded as the cornerstone of the Marvel mythos and were introduced by writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby in 1961’s Fantastic Four No. 1. The announcement of the movies comes six years after the initial announcement of the movie at San Diego Comic-Con in 2019 for MCU.

A few years ago, Insomniac Games and Sony decided to announce Marvel’s Spider-Man out of nowhere. This title was incredible; fans could not believe the freedom it offered; its combat mechanics felt ingenious, and its exploration was as fun as it could be. The standout feature of the Spider-Man was web-swinging, which proved a pure pleasure.
Then came Spider-Man: Miles Morales; another impressive game —a much more polished version of the original Spider-Man. A smaller but significant addition to the series that fans could not get enough of, not till the launch of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. This game was even more successful than the previous installment. Thanks to all these games, one thing is for sure: Wolverine will not lack a component most games miss out on.

It’s been exactly a month since ‘Madame Web’ was released, intended as the next installment in Sony’s Spider-Man Universe, albeit without Spider-Man. The film aimed to explore popular side-characters but ended up being a significant setback for the studio, turning into a subject of memes. Despite hopes, it became both a commercial and box office failure, falling short of ‘Morbius,’ the previous low bar-holder in the Ssu.
Cast members are handling the aftermath in their own ways. Sweeney, who portrayed Julia Carpenter, one of the Spider-Women, joked about the movie lightly, while her co-star Dakota Johnson (Cassandra Web) addressed the situation more seriously, urging film studio executives to reconsider their creative direction. Johnson reportedly faced backlash for her statements, with industry insiders suggesting it might be challenging for her to regain favor with Sony.
