SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING Sequel is Already Being Discussed and is Probably Targeting a 2020 Release



When Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures came together for an unprecedented studio partnership to bring Spider-Man into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it was initially just to introduce him in CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR. And then give him his own MCU solo movie, SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING.

With SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING wrapped and currently in post-production, actor Tom Holland is already doing some sequel teasing to Variety.

“My next project, I can’t tell you about, but we’ve just finished ‘Spider-Man’ and we’re talking about the second one and who the villain is going to be and where we’re going.”

Look, obviously the partnership between Marvel Studio and Sony Pictures will continue beyond SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING. Sony is paying the bills while Marvel Studios is producing all-things on the creative side. Sony may not admit this, but they are simply handing the budget checks over to Marvel and studio head Kevin Feige's braintrust of creatives. And if Spidey's debut in CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR was any indication, that plan works.

It's plausible that one of Marvel Studios' untitled release dates already set in 2020 for their Phase 4 slate of films — on May 1, July 10 or November 6 — could be a landing spot for the SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING sequel.

But the real question remains if the Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures partnership will also allow Spider-Man to appear in either of the two upcoming Avengers movies. Holland briefly commented on this, too.

“It’s all up in the air. I believe some sort of deal is in the mix, but I’m unclear as to what that deal is.”

It would be stupid to have all the characters of the MCU appear in the next two Avengers movies but not have Spidey appear in some capacity. It's sounding like he's going to be in at least one of the next two Avengers films.

SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING releases on July 7, 2017.
