Disney+ just got the Spider-Man deal you’ve been waiting for

The next Spider-Man film will hopefully hit theaters a few days before Christmas, which is the perfect time of the year to release such a blockbuster. The launch window isn’t the only thing that would turn Spider-Man: No Way Home into a massive success. It’s the film's premise that makes it a more exciting Spider-Man adventure than anything Sony made in the last two decades — counting this year’s film; we’re at eight live-action films with three different Peter Parker versions. As a reminder, Far From Home packed the perfect cliffhanger: the planet learned the identity of Spider-Man, and the hero was framed for murdering another purported superhero. Add to that all the multiverse leaks that we’ve witnessed in the past few months, and Spider-Man 3 will probably become a staple of MCU Phase 4, one of those movies you’ll have to rewatch before the next massive Avengers 5 crossover.

In light of all that, Disney fixed its Disney+ MCU problem in the best possible way. On Wednesday, the studio announced an essential partnership with Sony to bring all Spider-Man films to Disney+ in a reasonable time.
