The Spider-Man movie franchise has been rebooted several times, but it seems that Marvel is pretty sure that the latest one could be it because during the San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige stated that he wanted a progression to the Spider-Man sequels that is similar to how the Harry Potter movies progressed.According to Feige, “Should we be able to make more after that? Sure. This is sophomore year, is the next one junior year? Is the next one senior year? Is there a summer break between each of those? I don’t know what, but it was sort of how do we do a journey for Peter not dissimilar for what the students of Hogwarts would go through each of their years, which was one of the early ideas we had for the movies.”
Basically instead of every sequel having Spider-Man face down a new foe, it sounds like Feige wants this particular Spider-Man to grow and progress through his life, and hopefully achieve the same level of movie success that Harry Potter did. Spider-Man itself is pretty famous as a comics franchise, so this would no doubt take things to the next level.
Tom Holland’s Spider-Man made an appearance in Captain America: Civil War and many have praised his portrayal of Spider-Man. Comic-Con attendees were also treated to a clip of the upcoming Spider-Man which garnered pretty positive responses as well, so here’s hoping the third time’s the charm.
