8 Spider-Man Movies Sony Should Be Making Instead Of Venom

When Marvel and Sony came together to introduce Spider-Man to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (as seen in the latest Captain America: Civil War trailer), it was assumed that Sony’s previous plans to make multiple Spider-Man spinoff movies had been nixed. However, the studio has now made the shocking announcement that they will be pressing ahead with a Venom solo movie, and that it will be separate from both the now defunct The Amazing Spider-Man franchise and the MCU.

Miles Morales

The Spider-Man character we most want to see get their own movie is Miles Morales, the Ultimate Spider-Man.

Many people were disappointed by Sony and Marvel’s decision to go with the third incarnation of Peter Parker we’ve seen in ten years instead of giving Miles his turn in the limelight. If Sony developed their own Miles movie now, then, it would surely be a much more successful venture than a Venom standalone.

In the comics, the 14-year old Miles becomes Spidey once Peter has been killed. This could easily remain the case in Sony’s film; it could even take place in The Amazing Spider-Man universe. Perhaps Andrew Garfield’s Spidey died in that final fight with the Rhino?

For comic fans, particularly, this would be an exciting idea as it would basically mean we could have a big screen version of the Amazing/Ultimate Spider-Man continuities that ran alongside each other in the comics, which of course eventually culminated with Peter crossing over from his world to meet Miles in his.

A future crossover between Tom Holland’s Peter and Miles? Yes, please!
