Sony Pictures purchased Spider man screen rights from Marvel in 1998. It gave the studio access to many comic characters which is called as Sony Universe Of Marvel Characters.
Spiderman In Marvel Cinematic Universe
We got the first glance of Spiderman in MCU from Captain America Civil War as the fun-loving young kid from Brooklyn. He’s with Iron Man and fights against Captain America’s team. From that movie itself, we started loving spider man played by Tom Holland.
Then we saw a movie about just spider man in 2017 Spiderman: Homecoming directed by John Watts. The film again was loved by fans and even more for Tom Holland.
After that we saw a solo movie of Spiderman in 2019 Spiderman: Far From Home. He’s seen fighting against Mysterio with mysterious backstory and elemental monsters.
Towards the end of far from home, we see spider man being framed for the destruction caused in Europe by Mysterio. The climax scene was something to dwell upon and to find out how Peter Parker will clear the air in the upcoming Spiderman movie.
