RUMOR: Sony Pictures Has Paused All Its SPIDER-MAN Spin-offs - Including One Revolving Around Knull

comicbookmovie.com RUMOR: Sony Pictures Has Paused All Its SPIDER-MAN Spin-offs - Including One Revolving Around Knull

Unsurprisingly, Sony Pictures' slate of Spider-Man-adjacent spin-offs remains on hold, and it sounds like that's led to the studio scrapping plans for a project revolving around Knull, God of Symbiotes...

  I genuinely don't understand what you're trying to say here champ lol. SONY made "Across the spider verse" in 2023 and also produced and distributed "No Way Home" in 2021. Can you explain it to me please?
  
  Sony can't make live action Spiderman movies due to their contract with Disney/Marvel. They can make Spider-Man adjacent movies, like Morbius and Venom, but they can't have Spider-Man himself.
  Pretty surprised you don't know that. Unless you've only just now looked any of this up for this conversation.
  
  SONY funds, produces, distributes and collects 95% of the profit from all of the solo Tom Holland movies. While Marvel has total creative control over what actually happens in those movies. SONY decided to allow that situation to happen because it's mutually beneficial to both companies. That contract ended after "No Way Home" and SONY had the option to make as many live action Spider-Man movies as they liked but, decided to extend their agreement with Marvel.
  Initially you didn't specify "live action" so the "spider-verse" movies where a legit answer 🤷🏻 lol. The way you worded it saying that SONY "can't" was a bit confusing/misleading though. I kind of get what your saying but also disagree because of the reasons mentioned above.
  
  Cool story bro
