Spider-Man: No Way Home is quickly becoming one of the biggest theatrical releases in years, making over $1 billion at the global box office. This is something that not only makes SONY happy, but also shows that movie theaters can still turn a profit, you just need to make movies that people actually want to see and not another standard piece of fluf. But believe it or not this massive crowd pleaser almost didn’t happen. At least not the way people may have wanted.
“For a long time, there was going to be a Kraven movie that was going to be the third movie because things weren’t working out and all sorts of different stuff. Jon pitched me this Kraven movie, which actually was really cool. I don’t want to talk about it in case that movie ends up happening down the line, but it was fun.“
Of course we all know that Disney eventually gave up their money grab and reworked the deal in SONY’s favor in order to keep using the character. Which in the long run was the best option.
