Spider-Man is Entering The Marvel Cinematic Universe

What's the likelihood that they'll tie Peter's powers to Chitauri tech/infinity stones? It's kind of like how genetic engineering was the focal point of the Ultimates universe. Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch = powers from Loki's specter. Agent of Shields and Captain America = Hydra weapons from Chirauti and Asgardian tech. Maybe experiments done with Chitauri tech post-Avengers is what mutated the spider that bites Peter, rather than radiation and genetics

none of that, I hope. they need to expand further with new heroes that aren't just tied to the events of the previous films.
 
It's entirely possible to have an established Spider-Man and have him not show up in any previous movies. The entirety of Peter's time in the suit as Ultimate Spider-Man is less than a year - you could have him bitten after Age of Ultron and still have him as a longtime hero by the time Civil War rolls around.

A teen/young adult with spider-powers who just appears isn't going to be a huge deal to people who have seen alien invasions with a Hulk and a thunder god fighting them, and I think that's exactly the way to play it, even if Spider-Man is a way bigger deal to the fans, because that allows him to grow into the role rather than shoehorn him in as a big deal from the start.

This.

People are already throwing around pulling Spidey from a different dimension, retconing him into the Avengers 1 final fight; etc. That would be overcomplicating his origin (which I'm sure they want to keep as simple as possible considering he's had two already on film).

I'd think they want to set him up for the long haul (Phases 4+5) as a replacement for one of the OG members. They'd be dumb not to cast a young parker because this would: A) Set him up for the next decade in the MCU and B) Add a different dynamic to the current roster of late 20's - 40's.

The New Avengers starring: Young Spidey, Captain Marvel, Black Panther, Doc Strange and (possibly) Ant-Man looks to be way more diverse/fun. That's not including other side-characters with no solo flicks (ala Widow & Hawk) who may join the team. If they don't totally blunder on the solo flicks/characters I could see this being a bit better than the OG team. It'll also allow us to actually experience Spidey going from young/inexperienced to veteran for once. May even rival/mirror Tony's growth from Ironman - Infinity War. :)

Exciting times! This news (for me) was on "Final Fantasy VII Remake" levels of "Never Gonna Happen". Still pinching myself...
 
What the world really needs is another explanation of how Spider-Man was created. It isn't like there's anything else that they need to make room for in these movies.

And yeah, whenever Marvel/Disney has the option nowadays, they're casting people as young as they can and locking them in for as long as possible. The best (maybe only) way for these movies to work is to nab stars while they're still up-and-coming and before they start demanding a superstar salary. Spider-Man is going to look like he belongs on the Disney Channel.

I personally think that thin/lanky works best for Spider-man. I wouldn't call Maguire or Garfield "built" but they weren't scrawny either. Garfield had terrific movements that really captured spider-like motions. Having some "badass" play Peter Parker doesn't work for me.

It's down to the suit design and construction more than anything. Modern tight costumes don't show off an actor's physique well without a muscle layer.

Sounds like the way it goes is:

Sinister Six to complete the current Garfield/Webb run.

New Spidey to debut in Cap. 3. to kick off Civil War

Question needs to be answered though: Where the fuck was Spidey during the first Avengers then?
Click to expand...

I could see them doing something where they show him saving people in another part of the city. He is too busy helping people even after the chitauri shut down to go meet with the Avengers.

What? No no no no no. I think you missed the entire point of Gwen's death. That would be like killing off Uncle Ben in the the Chitauri/Ultron attacks.

For whatever reason I had more of Ultimate Gwen in my mind instead of Amazing. You guys are definitely right though.

Easter egg scene in AoU where he's bitten, then he shows up in Civil War in full suit with a year of experience under his belt.

By the time the standalone movie rolls around he's a wiley veteran.

Do it, Marvel.
 
Honestly they won't spend much time on his origin. Probably something like:

Tony - Where they hell were you when New York went down, huh?
Peter - At my grade 8 grad, grandpa.
Steve - How'd you get your powers anyway? Did the government use you?
Peter - I got bit by a spider now can we move on? There's a bunch of robots outside trying to kill us!
 
I really like Willem Dafoe, and Chris Cooper is an awesome actor but completely under utilized in ASM2. Whoever said Bryan Cranston wins though. Would be crazy seeing him run Marvel universe.

That's actually very cheesy and I hope they don't do that lol
 
first of all. Obviously this Spiderman is getting his Powers in 2015. The Avengers Happen in 2012. The movies actually take place in what year they happen.

We don't know that for sure. Previous rumours indicated that this version of Peter that is being introduce has already been living his double life as Spider-Man for some time. That could still be the case when he does show up.

Damn, I really like him as Norman Osborn actually. He'd be that perfect mix of sleazy and genuinely scary when he needs to be. And cornrows for the lol.
 
Isn't he suppose to be High school Peter Parker. Assuming he's 14 in 2012 he would be a senior student in Cap 3? I mean I guess that could be work.
 
BRING BACK TOBY! OG spiderman movies were the best!

I wouldn't even mind if they just continue off that universe.
 
Please, no more origin movies of Spider-Man, given how recent the rebbot was, it's safe to say most fans know how he becomes Spidey. Plus, how many times does Uncle Ben need to die?

The same rumours that came up also indicated that they'd skim over the origin. Probably similar to what they did in The Incredible Hulk.
 
Too bad they already used Tommy Lee Jones in Captain America. He could have made it in as Stormin' Norman.

Maybe they still can, though. Just claim the general was Norman's grandfather or something.

Everyone knows it. They've done it twice on film in the last 15 years.

This. I do not know why people feel the need to complicate shit.
Much less try to re-write it with alien bullshit.
Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch were due to a copyright need. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Luckily that definitely won't be happening :) Aside from a few bright moments, the Raimi movies were atrocious. I'm looking forward to what might actually be the first legitimately great Spidey movie for me.

The Incredible Hulk's intro was a great way to set up the origin without actually making the movie about it.

The Spider-Man movie should just use a similar intro to Spider-Man 2's

Edit: GOD DAMN!!! That music! I forgot how good it was

I like this. Simple and to the point.

Everyone and their grandpa knows Spider-man and his origin; bitten by radiative/genetic/whatever spider, gets powers, uncle Ben get's killed, kid choses to be a hero. The end.
 
"Where the hell were you during Loki's invasion?" Tony looks incredulous.

"Saving Civilians in the other Burroughs." Pete rolls his eyes. (With Amused Sarcasm) "Of course you guys got all the credit."

"Jarvis, why didn't you tell me about him?"

"Sir, we didn't have the time. You were focused on containment per Master Rogers orders. Adding him in would've created possible variables not even I could've accounted for. I do apologize, thoroughly, sir."

Tony sighs and takes a swig of alcohol. "It's all right."

Tony holds out his hand.

"Welcome to the Team Mr. Parker."
 
i hope they start with an enemy like mysterio then lead into venom for the sequel....

and spend an ENTIRE movie on venom... not like 30 minutes like spider-man 3

and then lead into maximum carnage...
 
Ugh. Maximum Carnage.

I'd rather not and say we did.

I would open a film with the Shocker pre credits sequence and then lead into Kraven.
 
I would find it very interesting if they decided to make Raimi's Spidey trilogy at least somewhat canon, even if they recast Peter. I'd prefer an experienced Spiderman over a younger one at this point, carefully balancing his normal life w/ Mary Jane w/ his superhero life.

They can do that without Maguire tho.

Got you covered.

Huh. Now that I think of it, AoS would be the perfect method of re-introducing Spidey to the greater MCU. Let Shield *hunt* the mysterious wall-crawler for a while, give him an episode, and use parts of that actual introduction for the movies a well.
 
Ether_Snake said:
I'm sure they'll bring Spidey from another dimension, it just doesn't make sense otherwise. He's bigger than any other characters, and for the kids it doesn't matter who is playing him or how he is introduced, they just want to see Spider Man web slinging around. But for the older audience you can't have him just show up like he was always there.

I'm sure Marvel will precisely use Spidey to introduce a multiverse notion, because through him it becomes acceptable to the viewers.

Yes you can. He's just been keeping it low key and they'll just throw hints that he's always been around in other media.

they can't make spider-man 3 canon thanks to the mishandling of venom
