Spider-man to be in Captain America 3

[ffutures]

Pointed out by dsample on another site: Thanks to a deal between Marvel and Sony, a future Marvel film, which seems likely to be the next Captain America movie, will include Spider-man.

Now if they can do a similar deal for the X-Men we might start to see an Avengers lineup a little more like the comics!

later - apologies - I originally made the Captain America appearance seem more certain than it is.

The joint announcement from Sony and Marvel does not say this specifically but it is probably the case.

I would guess Sony are desperate keen to have Spidey riding on the coat-tails of the marvel juggernaut, to maybe breathe a bit of life back into their sole superhero franchise.

So let me guess, Spidey's enemy in this film will be The Rebooter, a supervillain who has the power to change Spidey's face and force him to go through his origin story for the 58th time?

Yup. Got it in one.

You're right, I misread the announcement - sorry, I shall correct the post.

All too likely.

Actually I think he'd need to be an established superhero to be important in the Civil War story, so they may present him that way at the start.
