Sony is banking on Spider-Man being their Marvel meal ticket. They have announced a trio of huge facts for the Spidey movie future.
First is that writers Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman and Jeff Pinkner will be scripting The Amazing Spider-Man 3 with hopes director Marc Webb will return. It is set for release on June 10, 2016.
Second and bigger is that Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci and Ed Solomon are scripting a Venom movie with Kurtzman taking the director’s chair. This should make fans of the villain happy hoping it can erase the memory of Spider-Man 3.
Third and even bigger is that The Sinister Six are getting their own movie. The great thing about this is that Drew Goddard is writing the script and has the option to direct. He is the writer and show runner on the Daredevil series coming to Netflix and directed the wonderful Cabin in the Woods. He is also close to Joss Whedon so my thinking is that if Whedon is handling Marvel for Disney why not pick up one of his friends and cohorts to handle the Marvel side at Sony.
Big things are ahead for Spider-Man and his rogues gallery. Are you entertained?
