The Future of Spider-Man: Integrating into Marvel's Avengers 5 and Beyond

Since the third Spider-Man movie, many fans have speculated about which future Marvel Studios film our beloved superhero might appear in. Based on current contracts, the exciting possibilities for Spider-Man's future align closely with the upcoming Avengers 5. However, there are numerous other options that Marvel could explore. Let's delve into the potential scenarios and the impact they could have on Spider-Man's character and the upcoming movies.

Future Marvel Studios Films for Spider-Man

After Spider-Man 3, there are several potential futures for the character within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Many heroes are eager to join forces with Spider-Man in the next ensemble movie, Avengers 5. Here's a list of heroes who could team up with Spider-Man:

Fantastic Four - Johnny Storm specifically Wolverine Deadpool The Punisher Daredevil Moon Knight Ms. Marvel Nova She-Hulk Firestar and Iceman - his Amazing Friends

Unfortunately, without a new deal extension or a rights reversion from Sony, we may not see Spider-Man team up with any of these heroes in the near future. Instead, Spider-Man will likely appear in the next ensemble movie, which is a new Avengers installment.

Disney's Future Plans with Spider-Man

Disney currently has Spider-Man for one movie set after the third Spider-Man in 2021. Considering this, Disney would likely want to extend the deal before that final movie. Here are the possible options:

Sony Extends the Deal: In this scenario, Disney could incorporate Spider-Man into a Fantastic Four or Deadpool movie. This extension would give Disney more time to reunite Spider-Man with the Avengers. Sony Takes Back Peter Parker: If Sony decides to take back Peter Parker but agree to share or sell other Spider-Man-related characters, Disney would end Parker's storyline favoring a new Spider-Man character. Sony Takes Back Peter Parker Alone: If Sony takes back Peter Parker without sharing any other Spider-Man-related characters, Disney might kill off Peter Parker, similar to Uncle Ben or Phil Coulson, to galvanize a new team of younger heroes like the Young Avengers.

Given the upcoming deals and characters from the current Marvel Phase 4, it seems Disney is setting the stage for the Young Avengers to step into the spotlight.

Upcoming Characters and Teams

The upcoming Marvel Phase 4 introduces a new generation of heroes. Here are some of the characters and teams that are being set up:

Young Avengers: The Black Widow movie introduces Yelena Belova, who might become the new Black Widow. The Hawkeye show introduces Kate Bishop as the new Hawkeye. WandaVision may introduce Wanda Maximoff's children, who might become Wiccan and Speed. The Loki show may introduce Kid Loki. Additionally, Captain Marvel introduces the Kree and Skrull, which might make way for the Kree-Skrull Hybrid Hulkling. Marvel has even announced a Ms. Marvel/Kamala Kahn show.

These characters and teams are designed to represent the next generation of heroes in the MCU, with Spider-Man as a pivotal figure. The Young Avengers will become even more significant in the near future, setting the stage for a new era in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
