Screenrant Thinks Spider-Man Will Be Written Off In Avengers 5


I was reading Screenrant.com, and Thomas Bacon's article claiming that Spider-Man will be written out of the MCU with Spider-Man's second movie under the new Sony/Marvel agreement possibly being Secret Wars.  

The Secret Wars comic book mini-series began back in the 80's, but was more recently remade in 2015.  In the most recent adaptation of the series, the multiverse was collapsing so Doctor Doom fused different parts of different realities into one planet, dubbed "Battleworld."  It brought together different zones from different multiverse realities, such as "Old Man Logan," "Mile Morales," "Weirdworld" and others.  In the end, Franklin Richards broke through Doctor Doom's control and returned everything back to the way it was and recreated the multiverse.  Some of the characters from the other realities, however, stuck around in the main universe.

There was a mention of a Secret Wars movie by the Russo brothers, who said that they would come back to write and direct this movie if it was ever to be made, but that has been the only real talk about it.  So back to Bacon.  He knows that the first of the two movies that are going to be made will be Spider-Man 3, and there were rumors that Kevin Feige was planning ahead this time and working on a story that would write Spider-Man out of the MCU.  A Secret Wars movie would be the perfect way to do this, and that was Bacon's point.  However...

It was recently announced that Marvel was going to make Captain Marvel and Spider-Man the new faces of the MCU, now that Iron Man is dead and Captain America is old and retired.  If they are making Spider-Man one of the new faces of the MCU, wouldn't that suggest that they have bigger plans for the Web Swinger past the two movie deal?  They have already shown that they can work out agreements with Sony, and with Sony being able to use Tom Holland's Spider-Man in their own Spider-Verse, it seems possible that a third agreement will be reached.

Like I said, Bacon made some good points, but I don't think that his reasoning is sound with all of he new information that is coming out.  But what do you think?  Do you think that Spider-Man will be done with the MCU after his two movies are completed, or do you think that Sony and Marvel will continue their partnership?  let me know your thoughts in the comments section below, or you can leave them on my Facebook page.

Is there something that you want me to look into that you want to know about?  Send me your questions in the comments section or on The Comconoclast Facebook page.  I will do some digging and do a post on them after getting all of the information.
