As ‘Kraven’ Hunts for Audience, Sony's Marvel Universe Takes Final Bow for Now | Analysis
Sony's Marvel universe ends with empty "Kraven" panel at CCXP, marking the conclusion of failed experiment in Spider-Man-less superhero films.
stop trying to make no-spiderman Spiderman universe happen. it's not going to happen.
Aunt May's Christmas Carol, coming to theaters this December.
It could have. People would have said the same thing about Marvel if they knew what was cooking up in the mid 2000's.
They just lack the talent. As Dem Bosain pointed out, they can't even pick the characters people want to see for spinoffs.
No Batman Penguin worked. Just gotta find the right writer to do the story.
I think the penguin is really shaped by the characters and the mob context. Spideys rogues gallery doesn't have anything as gripping when spideys removed. Most of the characters also basically revolve around spider man so a story without him needs to find a way to fill the vacuum. Doc ock or lizard would basically just be boring science shows, goblin would be corporate action, or kraven would be nature doc. All of these are pretty boring.
The Spiderverse movies are (so far) pretty good. Sony could have leveraged that into a franchise universe. Or, they could have run with popular characters (Michael Keaton's Vulture spinoff?). Instead, we get Morbius, Madame Web, and Kraven. 3 back benchers nobody asked for.
I heard Sony is dicking with the last Spiderverse script.
A vulture prequel honestly could've worked. Maybe even just adapting the tinkerer style plot line with the vulture taking out a rival dealer whose much worse than him. Trouble with a parallel world vulture is that hiz dynamic with pete is basically the most interesting part of the character after homecoming and this would remove that.
If I had to choose between writing the script for... Whoever Kraven is and staying broke and unknown, I honestly
Alright of course I'd do it, but under a pen name.

For the love of all that is holy, Marvel just needs to pull all of its properties back under one umbrella.
