He did get consideration for ASM but not this time around. Dylan O'Brien and Logan Lerman are the two.
Plus he doesn't look like Peter Parker.

Feige at the steering wheel for Spidey? Encouraging news, indeed.

That was really a doubt about it?
One wouldn't be inclined to think so if they gave any credence to the doomsayers in the past week.

It wouldn't surprise me if Pascal was the main facilitator in the deal anyways, I'm pretty sure she knew the score
Kellvine Chavez from Latino Review who broke this months ago talks about it.

Was anyone seriously questioning him actually being in charge?
That press release "MCU joining the Spiderverse" or whatever was nothing more than ego stroking for Sony. Sony can have it phrased however they like for the press, as long as Marvel is the one actually pulling the strings.
It just gets better and better.
Just as we expected.

Didn't get the memo regarding the 14th Amendment
Yeah, there was no way that Feige would risk Sony meddling with the MCU just to include Spider-Man in it. The MCU has taken years and years to build up, and there's nothing quite like it as far as a "movie universe" would go, so the extent to Sony's control is probably going to be a name credit or something that makes it seem like they had more input than they actually had.
Hopefully this word gets out more, since there were actually people posting in this thread that thought Sony's "creative control" would ruin these films...
Now that Arad is out, I don't think there's anyone at Sony who strives to retain authorial control over Spider-Man, particularly out of a sense that they could "do it greater justice" than Feige and Co. They just want money. Sony financially backing and therefore having complete stakes in a film moulded by Marvel Studios is a sure fire way to print money.
He wouldn't delay 4 of their internal MCU movies to make room for the Spider-Man solo film to shine if he didn't have faith in it.

The only danger I see here is Sony's insistence on tying in the Spider-Man spinoffs, which really ruined the ASM series and which they are supposedly still intended on doing. Marvel can't really do anything about that if Sony still absolutely wants to do the same thing, but hopefully Sony realizes what their past mistakes were and keep those references to a minimum.
I had a dream last night that went into a nightmare;
I was at the first screening of Age of Ultron, and in the post credits, Spider-Man swings in, quips "looks like I'm a little late to the party.", Fury smiles and says "that's kind of your thing, isn't it, Peter?", Spidey pulls his mask and reveals the actor; Tobey Maguire.
At this point, I get a slight panic attack, but the scene isn't done. The camera pans to the shadows, and two big white eyes stare at the audience, as the shape steps out of the shadows, you can see black goo retracting and revealing Topher Grace and immediatly every MCU movie ever immediatly gets downgraded to absolute crap.
Like this;
Except it's not just the Raimi Spider-Man-movies, but every MCU movie, starting with Incredible Hulk and ending with the former masterpiece that's Age of Ultron.
So I go into a complete meltdown mode, the audience is going "NOOOOOOOOOOO!" there's panic at the theatre, the people who left before the creditroll have no idea what's going on, someone climbs on top of a garbagebin and proclaims that everyone should NOT attend Age of Ultron, get a refund and go watch Fifty Shades pt 2 instead.

Sweet so we can hopefully get a good Spider-Man movie. (Spider-Man 2 was close but has its flaws)
Whoa heavy... actually a young Michael J Fox being Spidey might have work.
They specifically said "new Spider-Man". That coupled with a ton of reports, & yeah, Andrew Garfield's gone.

If I had time I would search HARD to find comic equivalents of all of these.
Unironically speaking, literally anyone they choose for the role cannot compete with this.
Well... Dylan O'brien!

You know who should be Spidey? Jonny Simmons.
Yeah, I figured that would be the case. MovieBob speculated about this heavily as well roughly a week ago.
In short, it seems incredibly unlikely that Sony's influence is going to matter when the deal paints them as having the most to gain. Sony having the "final creative say-so" seems like it's the most minimal way of acknowledging that they're going to be relevant in the machinations. Marvel are probably the ones who are wrestling most of the control here.

if Greg Land had a run on Spider-Man, you wouldn't have to search hard at all

Report me for trolling ND/TLoU2 threads
this is a general question because i did not want to make a new thread about this, in ww2 the factions were called allies and axis, however what were they called ww1 were they also allies and axis or were the faction names different. Thanks
Lol that's funny because that's like the exact opposite of his personality.

I really want to hear/read Andrew Garfields opinion on this.

Oh whoa. I never thought of that. That is totally a possibility with Sony's current situation too. I'm curious if that makes sense for Disney outside of acquiring Spider-Man though.
So yeah, potentially thread worthy.
95% chance Spider-man IS NOT white....

He's legit but like he said, it is not set in stone.
