With Sony Pictures Entertainment now in production in New York on The Amazing Spider-Man™ 2, slated for release on May 2, 2014, the studio is planting its flag on two future release dates for one of the most successful franchises in studio history, it was announced today by Jeff Blake, Chairman, Worldwide Marketing and Distribution for Sony Pictures. The next two films in the story of Peter Parker will be released on June 10, 2016, and on May 4, 2018, respectively.

Commenting on the announcement, Blake said, “Spider-Man is our most important, most successful, and most beloved franchise, so we’re thrilled that we are in a position to lock in these prime release dates over the next five years.”

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is directed by Marc Webb from a screenplay by Alex Kurtzman & Roberto Orci & Jeff Pinkner, with a previous draft by James Vanderbilt, and based on the Marvel Comic Book by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach are the producers. The executive producers are E. Bennett Walsh, Stan Lee, Alex Kurtzman, and Roberto Orci.

The Amazing Spider-Man took in over $750 million at the worldwide box office last year.

oh

[AidenCarby]

Woodley, yes.

[tyven]

I feel like this is a bit early.

[Correction]

Haha what the fuck 6souls settle down

[Anoat]

Hi me from 2018! This is me from 2013 checking in. I hope this movie turns out pretty good!

[chazzyphizzle]

i thought this was a joke

[6souls]

As some of you may, or probably don't, remember the second film was announced before post production was finished on the first film. This time, Fox feels that the second film will be so successful that they have announced the third and fourth films before filming has finished on the second film.

[SephYuyX]

I hope the second one does terrible just to be an ass about it.

[Kerberoz]

But... the first one was only successful because it had Emma Stone in kneeboots.

[Tyrath]

So then the 3rd one will do terrible.

[Delirium]

This one won't have Carnage in it either. Don't ask.

Andrew Garfield wants Miles Morales to be the main character

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has already hit theaters overseas, but American audiences have to wait until Friday before they can see the sequel. The movie is bound to be a big worldwide box office success, one that will beget two sequels (number 3 and number 4) and at least two spinoffs (Sinister Six and Venom).

And while star Andrew Garfield will certainly return for ASM3, he may not return for ASM4 – and the same goes for director Marc Webb. Could The Amazing Spider-Man 4 see Peter Parker recast, a la James Bond? Or could the mantle of Spider-Man get passed to a new character within the universe?

Garfield was recently asked by Comic Book Resources if Miles Morales – the current iteration of Ultimate Spider-Man in the comics – could be introduced to the Amazing Spider-Man universe. Here’s what Garfield had to say:

I have given that thought. I think one of the amazing things about Spider-Man is that you don’t see skin color when he’s in the suit. You don’t see any religious beliefs. You don’t see any denominations. Everyone can project themselves into that suit. It’s incredibly powerful in that way. So of course I think it’s important that the openness, the casting, in terms of who could be Spider-Man, could be absolutely anyone. A hero is a hero, whether you’re a man, woman, gay, lesbian, straight, black, white or red all over – it doesn’t matter.

Miles Morales was a huge moment in this character’s comic book life. And I do believe that we can do that. It’s something I’m really interested in figuring out; an eloquent way of coexisting, or passing on the torch. I don’t have an answer, but I think it’s actually a really important move. I think it’s a really beautiful and important move.

For those who don’t know, Miles Morales – a 13-year-old black Hispanic kid who also happened to get bitten by a genetically altered spider – replaced Spider-Man in the Ultimate Universe after Peter Parker was killed. He has many of the same powers that Peter did, but he also has the ability to blend in with his surroundings and temporarily paralyze people with electric “venom strikes.”

It’s interesting that Garfield brings up “passing on the torch“; it makes one wonder if Sony is already discussing plans to do this very thing. After all, they basically just rebooted this franchise.

Whether or not Andrew Garfield appears in The Amazing Spider-Man 4, it’s pretty much a foregone conclusion that he will leave the franchise at some point – and possibly after part 3. And seeing as there’s no way Sony’s going to let the rights to the character revert back to Marvel anytime soon, are they really going to want to reboot it again? Or would they be better off, as Garfield puts it, “passing on the torch” to a new actor and a new character?

What’s funny about all this is that Donald Glover, if you recall, campaigned to get the role of Spider-Man in the first ASM. That didn’t happen, of course, but his campaigning and the subsequent press surrounding it inspired Brian Michael Bendis to create Miles Morales. Now that a black Spider-Man might actually be realized on the big screen, Glover will likely be too old to play him – unless they drastically change Morales’ age.
