Subtitles section

Come on, get your stuff.

Let's go.

That's from Sony's forthcoming Madam Web movie.

And if the guy she's fighting reminds you of Spider Man, we're pretty sure that's exactly what they were going for.

Because since his appearance in the Civil War, both Marvel and Sony have increasingly been propping up their cinematic superhero offerings on the back of the famous web slinger.

With all signs indicating things will get worse before they get better, it has to make fans wonder, how many cinematic universes can Spider Man save?

I don't want to brag, but I will.

I was in The Avengers.

The Avengers?

Yeah.

That's great.

Thank you.

What is that?

But while we figure out whether Spidey is more of a threat or a menace, why don't you take a moment to subscribe to the Nerdstalgic channel?

When Peter Parker's friendly neighborhood Spider Man swung onto the screen in Civil War, it was a truly amazing moment.

You're the Spider Ling.

Crime fighting spider.

You're Spider Boy?

Spider Man.

Not in that onesie, you're not.

Licensed to Sony, who produced the Spider Man films that starred Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, the fan favorite character had always been forced to exist in a world of his own.

But due to Sony's mismanagement of the character, Marvel was able to convince them to allow the wall crawler to finally appear on the big screen with his fellow Marvel superheroes.

Now, in the MCU wasn't exactly in need of saving, but it's easy to speculate that the slightly disappointing Avengers Age of Ultron had the studio concerned it might be losing the fans attention.

So even though Civil War introduced cool new characters like Black Panther and had the entire Avengers cast, it was the arrival of Spider Man that was prominently featured in the trailer's closing moments, a spot often reserved for the most tantalizing marketing image.

Played by Tom Holland, the MCU's Spider Man was instantly beloved by fans.

You got heart, kid.

Where you from?

Queens.

Brooklyn.

And would quickly reappear in the new Spider Man Homecoming.

His first solo movie would be a small stakes adventure that found the high schooler trying to stop the vulture from stealing technology from Tony Stark.

The movie was well received by mass audiences and critics, making over eight hundred and eighty million dollars worldwide.

Actually, it turns out it was the perfect sort of tough love moment that you needed, right, to urge you on, right?

Wouldn't you think?

Don't you think?

Let's just say it was.

Spider Man would return in the of Avengers Infinity War, fighting alongside Iron Man and Doctor Strange on an adventure that would take him into space and put him right into the heart of the battle.

Fans were devastated when Thanos snapped Peter and half of the universe out of existence.

Having been dusted by Thanos, Peter didn't get much screen time in Avengers Endgame.

But when he finally did show up, his resurrection turned out to be one of the movie's biggest cheer out loud moments.

You remember when we were in space, and I got all dusty?

But Doctor Strange was there, right?

And then he started doing the yellow sparkly thing that he does all the time.

What are you doing?

In the wake of the Infinity Saga, fans watched to see what Marvel would do next.

The two previous Avengers outings had been followed by light, comedic Ant Man films designed to act as palate cleansers after the massive event movies.

But possibly concerned people would tune out after the conclusion of the decade long storyline, not to mention the death of Iron Man.

Probably nothing crazy happens again because are the Avengers even like a thing anymore?

Does anyone even have a plan?

I have a plan.

Marvel decided to follow Endgame with the biggest attraction they had left, Spider Man.

Like Homecoming, the new Spider Man Far From Home was a small stakes story that found Peter battling a supervillain over technology made by Tony Stark, who, even in death, managed to be at the center of the story.

Doubling as something of a low key coda to Endgame, the movie's plot didn't tell fans much about what to expect from the MCU's next phase.

The film's arrival felt rushed and poorly planned from a universe building perspective.

It did, however, keep them coming back to theaters.

It was a smash with critics and audiences, grossing over one point one billion dollars worldwide.

But at what cost?

Did Marvel really think we would move on from Endgame so quickly?

The whole world is asking who's going to be the next Iron Man.

I don't know if that's me happy.

I'm not Iron Man.

Most recently, Holland donned the red and blues for the new Spider Man, No Way Home.

As the fourth film in MCU phase five, No Way Home followed three movies that all featured either less or totally unproven commodities.

Black Widow had never headlined her own movie before, while Shang Chi and Eternals all featured completely new heroes.

The scheduling suggests that, once again,

Marvel was counting on Spidey to revive their fortunes if interest flagged.

And though the reasons for it are complicated, all three did have relatively lower box office returns.

Meanwhile, the movie itself tripled down on the audience's goodwill for Spidey by bringing back Maguire and Garfield, each playing their own respective Spider Man.

Whoa!

That came out of you.

Yeah.

You can't do that, huh?

No.

How?

Anyway, we're getting sidetracked.

At the same time, however, No Way Home seemed, in some ways, to be almost too beholden to fan culture.

The popular meme of two Spider Men pointing at each other was referenced in the movie and its marketing.

Peter!

Yeah?

Oh, sorry.

Did you mean that?

Peter, Peter.

We're all calling Peter now, Peter.

Peter Parker?

Same.

Nonetheless, the threequel was a huge hit with audiences and critics.

Six cinematic appearances in six years is a lot for any superhero.

especially one who had already appeared in five solo films before he ever showed up in the MCU.

But thanks to the unique rights sharing agreement between Sony and Marvel, Hollywood still wasn't about to let Peter Parker rest.

He played a feature role in the animated feature Into the Spider Verse, as well as its the sequel Across the Spider Verse.

He's also certain to return in its forthcoming sequel, Beyond the Spider Verse.

We're little teens.

Me as the teacher who could still do it.

You as the student who can do it, just not as good.

At the same time, Sony has taken it upon themselves to create a cinematic universe built out of Spider Man villains and supporting characters.

These movies include Venom and its sequel, Morbius, and forthcoming Kraven and the aforementioned Madam Web.

While Venom and its sequel were both, to varying extents, box office successes, Morbius was a major flaw.

and the cinematic fates of Madame Webb and Craven still to be determined.

It seems that, like Marvel, Sony is going back to the Spider Man well.

Despite a brief multiverse based tease of Holland's image in Venom Two's post credits scene, and an equally brief appearance by Tom Hardy's Eddie Brock at the end of No Way Home, Spidey himself has never actually appeared in the Sony Spider Man villain universe.

But it is now seemingly increasingly likely that that status quo is about to change.

Maybe I should go to New York and speak to the Sam.

Spider Man.

By the way, if you're averse to hearing a fan theory that may spoil aspects of the plot of Madam Web, you might want to save this video now and check out the rest later.

Oh.

Oh, my god.

I didn't see anything.

This isn't what it looks like, Captain.

For everyone else, a leaked set photo has shown Emma Roberts, who is confirmed to be playing Peter Parker's mother, Mary, made up to appear pregnant.

This has led many fans and commentators to speculate that Madam Web is laying the groundwork for the introduction of yet another version of Peter Parker, who will inhabit the universe depicted in the Sony films.

It's a move many have long expected the studio to make, as their films do seem to tease the existence of the hero in their universe.

And with television projects focusing on characters like Silk and Spider Man Noir already in development, the franchise is badly in need of something to juice fans' interest.

What the hell is that?

Everyone's got a gimmick now.

Spider Man and his supporting cast are not going to be able to carry multiple movie franchises in live action and another in animation for two different studios in perpetuity.

It's simple, true believer.

The more Spider movies they make, the worse they'll become.

Or in other words, the more cinematic universes Spidey is asked to save, the higher the likelihood that he will eventually fail them all.

So what do you think?

Are you a Spider fan?

And if so, do you think Hollywood is stretching the wall crawler too thin?

Let us know down in the comments below.
