A couple of years ago, The Cabin the Woods director and frequent Joss Whedon collaborator Drew Goddard looked set to make a big impact on the superhero world. After writing the pilot for Netflix’s Daredevil, he bowed out of the rest of the series to direct the long-touted Venom spinoff movie. Unfortunately, with the death of The Amazing Spider-Man franchise, that didn’t come to pass.

However, apparently the project is still on the slate at Sony, just as a standalone. Hopefully, they will come to their senses and decide that a movie about Spider-Man’s nemesis without Spider-Man is a dumb idea and give the character to Marvel. If that ends up happening, we think Goddard should go with the project and make the movie for the MCU.
