>they are going to have movie level budgets
Why not just make a MCU Spider-Man TV show? Sony can't meddle with that

have you seen the Mandalorian trailer? This is def more than the low budget Netflix shit.
Leo Young
Yeah, they seem to be going all out for their material so Disney+ will have a strong opening. Going for a combination low price to enter (something like 4 bucks a month but you have to sign up for 3 years) and high production values. Thing is I doubt the production costs will keep up once they have people hooked, same as I figure that low tier "guaranteed" price probably has a shit ton of fine print that lets them slowly increase it year over year.
Isaac Smith
It's not totally unbelievable. The shows will presumably have a lot more downtime than the movies do, they'll save the effects for the big moments.

Sony got the live-action TV rights not long ago. Sony covers their tracks and disney let themselves get cucked.
Isaiah Peterson
If they become a hit expect a high budget, if not expect inhumans tier budget
John Martin
I'd rather he just be in the mcu period but I'd take anything to avoid another reboot. I like Holland and enjoyed most of the mcu so far. Yet if Spidey leaves? The only movies I'll care to see are Dr. Strange 2 and GOTG3. Why do people keep acting like him being out is final anyway? They're still negotiating.
Justin Murphy
Sony does not own Spidey tv rights.

>1998
Mmm no in 1998 Sony bought the rights from I want to say MGM, who had bought them just a couple of years earlier.
The rights were originally sold to Charles Fries in the 1970s, and cover both live-action tv and live-action movies. Back then, rights sales were permanent - nobody thought you'd want to make a long-running franchise or a reboot franchise. It just didn't happen.
Sony does own the tv rights. There's even been a tv show made using those same rights, of which we can trace ownership from the 1970s right through to Sony acquiring them.
