Shiit all we need now is a new...
Such great news. Only sad thing is that we already have the absolutely perfect Peter Parker/Spider-Man and DC already grabbed him first.
"By day I'm just an ordinary forensic scientist". SMH.
On the one hand, solid, no more Amazing Spiderman with it's half-cocked everything. On the other, I really, REALLY don't like the idea of Sony having much of any say in the production of the movie beyond "action", "Cut" and "We're done, give us the rest of the commission money".
They finished the deal 38 weeks ago.
Quick montage of origin at the start of the film. People have seen it enough to get it, look at The Incredible Hulk film.

Was pleasantly surprised to hear of this. Here's to hoping that Spider-Man's appearance/role in whatever Marvel film he will appear in is suitably awesome.

I wonder if they could sneak in a post credit teaser for Spidey in Ultron. I'm guessing it's too late.

They've been discussing the deal for a long time, and have been very close for the past month or so. I doubt it closed until just recently.
I don't think they would even do a quick sizzle of his origin. Remember he'll debut in another guys movie, highly likely Captain America which will already be majorly focused on the governing of heroes.
Wasn't there a tweet saying it was finished 38 weeks ago?

They wont just buy one character. I think Fox already started making a movie.
X-men to Marvel and we are done.
I dont mean about an Origin movie. I wanna know if they continue where they left off and cast Garfield again or if they cast somebody new, fresh, cool and who can act.

Just make the next film Spider-Man 4 and continue where Sam Raimi and Maguire left off

"When I was a child I saw my [Uncle Ben] killed by [a burglar]. [I felt responsible] for [his] murder. Then a [Spider bite] made me the impossible. To the outside world I am an ordinary [freelance photographer/science genius], but secretly I use my [Spider powers] crime and find others like me. And one day, I'll find who killed my [Uncle] and get justice for my [Aunt May]. I am the Spiderman."

Yeah, I'd love to see them just dive right in and be like "Oh, hey, Spiderman! You've been heroing about for a decade."
Give us adult Spider-man, we've had gangly teenage Spiderman for 5 movies already.
FTFY
Also, they're recasting (no Andrew Garfield) & are skipping the origin story.
I approve of this (re)union. It's a shame that Garfield's not coming back though - arguably the best thing about the last two movies, especially since his romance with Stone was the golden nugget in the turd that TASM2.
Slightly off-topic: I posted this news on Facebook and of course, taking a film studies major, it then derails into a heated long 12 comment, wall-of-text debate on which Spiderman cinematic series was objectively better. Ah my life.
I'm actually fanboy squealing a lot on the inside, I swear.

Mannn yesss, I've been saying he looks like he could be a good Peter Parker for the longest.

I think people are overblowing the impact this will have on the other heroes. Marvel still has the motivation to make these other characters and films as good as they can be. Can never have too much money and successful franchises. They'll still do right by Captain Marvel and Black Panther.

Lost in all this yay Spidey is that this opens up the path to Dark Avengers, Norman Osborn and H.A.M.M.E.R.
If anyone got screwed by the news it's Garfield. He did a great job in the role and he clearly has a lot of passion for the franchise. It's a shame the actual movies failed him.

Even bigger than Spider-man, is access to Spider-man's villians.

They announced all of the dates for phase 3 not too long ago, so if this deal was actually made 38 weeks ago then they wouldn't have pushed back all of the phase 3 movies like they just announced.
Reboot most likely, but the question is whether they start him off as a fucking teenager again

Didn't Sony execs hate him anyway?
Matthew McConaughey for Norman Osborn.
It's a shame for Garfield, but he is getting into his thirties now and can get onto better things.

Yeah. Apparently Sony's execs are very traditionalist since they are located in Japan. Garfield, being a relatively young Brit, didn't know how to act around them, so they took his ignorance as disrespect and wanted him out.

Spider-Man should already be married in the MCU:
