After taking a stab at Sony's Spider-Man franchise, with the Oscar-winning animated movie SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE, Phil Lord and Chris Miller are set to tackle more of Sony's Spider-Man content.
According to Deadline, Lord and Miller are bringing various live action properties of Sony's Marvel Spider-Man franchise to TV all of which will be standalone and "related" [read as: connected] to each other.
“We are developing a handful of live-action shows using Sony’s Marvel characters, of which there are like 900 characters. We’re figuring out a way to develop the shows so that each are their own unique experience but are also related.
“We’ve been talking to a lot of potential teammates for trying to do something not like anything else that’s been done on television. It’ll be a little while before it all comes together and is on the air, but I think it is going to be something really special.
“Hopefully we’ll know in the next few months where it’ll be and what the schedule will be."
They didn't get into any details about which characters will be brought to TV, but it seems possible they may shine a light on a non-Peter Parker version of Spidey as to not confuse audiences with actor Tom Holland's take on Peter Parker's Spider-Man in Marvel Studios' cinematic universe. Just like they did when introducing the mainstream to Miles Morales' version of Spidey in SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE.
A Spider-Man live action TV universe seems to be coming sooner than later and it could be successful if done right in similar fashion to The CW's interconnected DC superhero universe.
