Marvel Studios and Sony dropped a thermonuclear bomb at the stroke of midnight when they officially announced that Spider-Man will be coming to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. To use the official language, the MCU is coming to the Spider-Man franchise, but it’s semantics really. What’s important is that now Spidey will be appearing in Marvel Studios films and characters from that studio will be appearing in Spider-Man movies from Sony.
News of this magnitude needed its very own React Podcast and that’s exactly what we have for you here. We go in-depth about this announcement means for both the Spidey franchise and the MCU. We also discuss who we would like to see as the web-slinger and which villains would be great for this rebooted series. Since we’re all huge comic book nerds we reference a lot of stuff that isn’t normally brought up in these conversations as well.
This React Podcast features: Tony Polanco (host), Charles Singletary Jr., Emilio Lopez, and Richard Bailey Jr.
