Here's every unmade Spider-Man movie, and why they were canceled. There are few superheroes more ubiquitous than the web-slinger and their pals these days. Whether it's Tom Holland getting up to all manner of teenaged shenanigans as Peter Parker in the MCU, Yuri Lowenthal's twenty-something Peter Parker protecting NYC in Insomniac's Spider-Man video game, or spider-heroes like Miles Morales, Spider-Gwen, and even Spider-Ham traversing the multiverse in the animated Spider-Verse franchise (to mention nothing of the ongoing Spider-Man comic books and cartoon series), there's more than plenty of Spider-entertainment to go around. nb67

There's a new Spider-Man coming to New York, and moviegoers will likely meet him in May 2016 when Captain America: Civil War opens in theaters. That's right, Marvel's beloved web-slinger is coming home!

Before the holiday, Sony Pictures was hacked and many of the the company's internal files and emails were leaked online. The information confirmed what fans had speculated upon for years - that Marvel and Sony were in conversations about potentially sharing the film rights to Spider-Man and bringing the character into The Avengers fold.

[Feb 9 2015 Update: Spider-Man DID the Marvel Cinematic Universe.]

UPDATE: The DC & Marvel Movie Slates from 2014 - 2019 are now COMPLETE!

Marvel Studios has had fans on the hook for years now - ever since they first announced their Avengers Initiative in 2008. However, while most Marvel fans have had one big destination in mind for all of these superhero solo movies and team-ups  (a cosmic showdown with Thanos and the Infinity Gauntlet), in recent weeks we've gotten wind that Marvel's plans may not be so simplistic - and that some other big event films could be on the way.

Marvel's Cinematic Universe has become the model for episodic blockbuster storytelling in Hollywood - resulting in $6.3 billion in box office revenue (and counting). Of course, those numbers do not include revenue from Blu-ray/DVD sales, licensing, and retail merchandise, which have added millions more to the Disney coffer. There's no doubt that Marvel Studios' recent shared cinematic universe was a game-changer - weaving nine films  (so far), the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. TV series, and five one-shots into a single narrative web. In spite of a few hiccups, the ambitious project is paying off, raising interest (and box office profits) for any film bearing the Marvel Studios logo.
