Is Sony Finally Willing to Sell Its Spider-Man Rights to Disney and Marvel?
The story of Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is the most intricate among all superheroes due to a unique rights situation. Unlike other MCU characters, Sony, rather than Marvel Studios, owns the rights to Spider-Man. This separation initially prevented a seamless connection between the initial Spider-Man films and the main MCU movies. However, when Tom Holland stepped into the role, collaboration between Sony and Marvel allowed for three movies featuring the young actor to be produced within the MCU.
