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.

However good Venom or any of these ideas for alternate films turn out, we’ll always be frustrated by how they don’t fit in with the Marvel movies, when they so easily could.

Instead of any of these present-day films, then, Sony should tackle Spider-Man 2099, a version of Spider-Man from – you’ve got it – decades into the future. This would naturally be separate from the other films, but could still be loosely presented as the future of the MCU, for the fans’ sakes.

In the comics, this Spider-Man is Miguel O’Hara (he’s Latino, which would be something new for big-screen supers). His costume would also look amazing on the screen, what with that red skull (not that one!) emblazoned across his chest.

They’d be able to do a present day movie, too, as Miguel gets stranded in our time for a long while in the comics, which would present a fun reverse-Captain America storyline to explore.
