Spider-Man spin-off with The Amazing Spider-Man writer in the pipeline?

Spider-Man fans will be delighted to hear Robert Orci, who co-wrote The Amazing Spider Man 2, has reportedly been tapped to pen an untitled Marvel film for Sony. According to The Wrap, details about the film are yet to emerge, but it would sit among Sony’s Marvel universe.

Sony’s roster includes Marvel characters like Nightwatch, Venom and Silk.

According to the publication, the movie initially looked like it was going to be connected to films like Venom, which are linked to Spider-Man.

However, a source has now told them it will hail from a different area of the Marvel universe which Sony has access to.

Sony are currently preparing to release the next in that subsection of superhero films: Morbius.

The scene hints at a possible Spider-Man Sony/MCU crossover as it looks as though Morbius and Vulture could team up, perhaps to take down the latter’s nemesis.

Production is also underway on Venom 2, which is being directed by Andy Serkis.

Tom Hardy will return as Eddie Brock/Venom along with Woody Harrelson as Cletus Kasady/Carnage.

Here, once again, there are swirling rumours Spider-Man could have a part to play too.

One Venom 2 set photo showed a bus with a poster which read: “Where is Spider-Man?”
