Marvel Sony's Spider-Man
American media franchise and shared universe Sony's Spider-Man Universe (SSU) is centered on a series of superhero films made by Columbia Pictures and Marvel Entertainment. Sony Pictures Releasing distributes the films, which are based on Marvel Comics characters and properties related to Spider-Man.
Work on an extended universe utilizing supporting characters from the Insect Man films started by December 2013. Sony Pictures planned to release several spin-off films based on comic book villains of Spider-Man, including a Venom movie, with The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014). After The Amazing Spider-Man 2 was a relative financial and critical failure, these plans were abandoned. Sony announced a deal in February 2015 to collaborate with Marvel Studios on upcoming Spider-Man films and include the character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
Spider-Man was the result of this partnership: Homecoming (2017), Insect Man: Spider-Man: Homecoming and Far From Home No chance Home (2021), while Sony independently redeveloped Toxin (2018) as an independent film later settled as starting its own made up universe. Sony and Wonder Studios rethought their arrangement in 2019 to share the Bug Man character between the MCU and their independent Wonder based films. Venom came after Venom: Mid-credit scenes from Let There Be Carnage (2021) and Morbius (2022) use elements from the multiverse concept to connect the SSU and MCU. Critics were critical of Venom and Morbius, while Venom: There were mixed reviews of Let There Be Carnage. The series has netted a joined $1.5 billion around the world.
Kraven the Hunter and El Muerto and Madame Web, two live-action films based on Marvel characters that are slated for release in 2023 and 2024, respectively, are being developed by Sony. A few additional movies are in different transformative phases, and Sony Pictures TV is fostering a few surprisingly realistic TV series set in a similar common universe, which incorporate Silk: Spider Society and a Spider-Man Noir series with no title.
Sony's new shared universe, which was based on various Marvel Comics properties and Spider-Man-related characters, received the name "Sony's Marvel Universe" in May 2017. By August 2018, it was being alluded to as "Sony's Universe of Wonder Characters" inside at the organization. In Walk 2019, a Sony Pictures Diversion show alluded to the "Sony Pictures Universe of Wonder Characters" (SPUMC),and Sony later affirmed that this was the authority name for its common universe.
The title was used in the presentation for both Sony's live-action Marvel adaptations and the animated Spider-Verse films produced by Marvel Studios. Commentators mocked the title's length in comparison to shorter franchise names like the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and DC Extended Universe (DCEU), as well as the acronym "SPUMC." James Whit brook of io9 inquired as to why the term "Spider-Verse" was not used. Sanford Pan itch, president of Columbia Pictures, said that Sony didn't want to call their shared universe the "Spider-Verse" because it had a lot of characters that weren't Spider-Man.
Notwithstanding this, Sony declared in August 2021 that the establishment had been renamed "Sony's Bug Man Universe" (SSU).
