    Six months. All the MCU movies starting with BP, except for Avengers got pushed down the line one release spot.

    But it's worth it, just to see Spidey web Tony Stark in the face, then get a tiny nod of approval from Cap.

    This is great news. I'd be happy with a years delay to make sure Civil War (I assume that's the movie he'll be in) is done right.

    Civil War starts filming in about 2 months, so I don't think they could delay it even if they wanted to. I doubt they'd need to. From what I've read, Marvel suposedly had 2 versions of the Civil War script in anticipation of a possible Sony deal. One with Spidey featured heavily and one without him. If this is indeed true, they're already prepared for his inclusion.

    Wow!

    I don't know the specifics of the deal, but who else falls under the "Spider-Man/Sony umbrella" that Marvel might also potentially be able to incorporate?

    Doubtful. The X-Men franchise has been able to bounce back since X3 & Origins, so I don't believe they're desperate enough to align with MCU.

    Norman Osborn springs to mind. Maybe the Hood as well, if they want to incorporate him into some of the later Netflix stories as a rival for Kingpin.

    We probably owe this is some part to Seth Rogen & James Franco for "The Interview". Seems like Sony is in shambles right now and this was just about the only way to get the Spider-Man franchise back on track.

    "Under the deal, the new Spider-Man will first appear in a Marvel film from Marvel's Cinematic Universe (MCU). Sony Pictures will thereafter release the next installment of its $4 billion Spider-Man franchise, on July 28, 2017, in a film that will be co-produced by Kevin Feige and his expert team at Marvel and Amy Pascal, who oversaw the franchise launch for the studio 13 years ago. Together, they will collaborate on a new creative direction for the web slinger. Sony Pictures will continue to finance, distribute, own and have final creative control of the Spider-Man films."

    At the end of the day, I'm not all that impacted by this one way or another. I've never been a Spider-Man fan. I get that this is important for Civil War, but even with regard to that, I was more excited by the initial tease that it was going to be Serpent Society.

    I'd like to know who they were going to unmask if this deal didn't happen...

    That's funny, because the first "Fox" franchise I thought of was Fantastic Four.

    Good point... As far as the Avengers team goes (as it currently stands) there are no masked vigilante-types that the public doesn't know who they are, right? I guess some of the new, to the MCU, characters that are coming in Age of Ultron could have secret identities.

    We still don't know if unmasking or the Registration Act have anything to do with it.

    Fallout from Stark's Ultron debacle is more likely to be the cause of the rift.

    Me, too.

    I have no interest in seeing the MCU cluttered up with X-characters.

    On the other hand, I'd love to see a properly-conceived Doctor Doom tangling with the Avengers. (Hell, I'd like to see Agents of SHIELD having to deal with "Latverian problems."

    Good point. If that's the case who's to say Spideys first appearance will be in Civil War. No where has it been said that that movie will be his first appearance.

    Offhand? Black Cat, Venom... Punisher?

    Thanks @Chuck_Melville. Didn't realize The Punisher would fall under that. Of course, it also opens up all of his villains, which could be cool. Ooooo ... maybe SHIELD agent Jessica Drew?

    I know it's still fresh news, but no indication if this is a reboot, correct? I did not care for Garfield as Parker/Spider-man. I am hoping for a new actor cast in the role.

    Also, they should stay away from doing another Spider-man character (i.e. Morales.)

    Marvel actually already holds the film rights to The Punisher. He is not part of the Spider-Man license, but his own license. The Punisher was previously at Lionsgate (who made the 2 recent films), but was returned to Marvel about 4 years ago.

    Far more than Spider-Man, I want to see J. Jonah Jameson in the MCU.

    Played by J.K. Simmons.

    And all God's children said?

    Amen!

    What I think they're going to do is a soft reboot ala "The Incredible Hulk." What happened before happened, but it doesn't need to be overly referenced. There sure as heck isn't going to be a third origin story on the horizon, that's almost 100% certain.

    They announced Spidey will appear in an MCU movie before his own. That leaves Civil War, Dr Strange and Guardians 2. I can't see them undermining Dr Strange with a Spidey cameo. And James Gunn likes to pretend his Guardians movies don't exist in the MCU, not that it would make sense anyway.

    Yeah, I wasn't sure about the Punisher... which was why I dangled a question mark there.
