Are Iron Man And Captain America Going To Be In The New Spider-Man Movie?
Well this is kind of interesting...
Last week, Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans made an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live to promote their upcoming film, Captain America: Civil War. It was your basic promotional gig that all actors do while trying to drum up interest in their new movie, but there was one thing that Robert Downey Jr. said that has the whole interweb stirring. During the interview, RDJ turned to Evans and said:
"By the way, we are going to shoot in Atlanta again, you and I."
Evans responded:
"I know, I'm ready, I'm ready."
Now, a lot of people just assumed that the two were talking about filming the next Avengers films, Avengers: Infinity War part 1 & 2, but here's the curious thing...Sony's new Spider-Man movie is also going to start filming Pinewood Atlanta Studios next summer...see where I'm going with this?
Marvel Studios and Sony came to an agreement that would allow Spider-Man (a property owned by Sony) to appear n the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and also would allow Marvel some say in Sony's stand-alone Spider-Man movies. Spidey's first appearance is going to be in the upcoming Captain America: Civil War, and fanboys and fangirls are eagerly awaiting the Wall Crawler's entrance into the MCU. His appearance in the film will allow fans to get to know the new Peter Parker, while also allowing Sony to jump right in with a new story for their stand-alone movie that isn't an "origins" story. Since he's going to be appearing in the Captain America movie, wouldn't it make sense that Iron Man and Captain America might make an appearance in the new Spider-Man film? You know, "you scratch my property's back, and I'll scratch yours" type of thing? Plus, that would be a huge boost to the Spider-Man franchise, that has seen dwindling interest and revenue over the last three films. To bring in Marvel's two biggest stars would would make it a guaranteed blockbuster!
So that's the take that a lot of people are seeing from the interview. What do you think? Is it possible that RDJ and Evans will appear in the stand-alone Spider-Man movie, or are people reading too much into what was said on Jimmy Kimmel Live? Leave your thoughts in the comments section below.
