In the light of these legal requirements, I'm wondering if DCA's Spider-Man attraction is actually going to be more of a "Tony Stark invites guests to try out Spider-Man tech" approach. Iron Man would get more time than any Spidey villain.

A generic non-Sony Spider-Man can show up briefly in a cameo. (Just like Snow White does in her attraction.)

Maybe we're being recruited to join the Spider-Army! And then BOOM! Something goes wrong and the real Spiderman has to swing in and save the day!!

What the real difference between the Sony Spider-Man versus a generic one really other than actor (and maybe a slight stylistic difference in the look of the costume)?

I mean this is a masked hero, the actor or even voice is really not that important in an attraction in my opinion.

My hope is that they could still have Tom Holland do the voice, but the suit can be styled differently enough to not look like the one in the Sony films.

The construction walls have been painted a bit more now, with various Stark Industries logos still splashed around. But not much appears to be happening on the other side of the walls. If they are in demolition mode, you can't tell. Hordes of Festival Of Holidays crowds wander by unknowingly, while the adjacent Blue Sky Cellar still lamely offers a Pixar Pier exhibit that no one cares about.

If TDA is moving forward with this Marvel Land thing, they are apparently using teaspoons to move dirt around instead of using bulldozers.

I am very confused about what you are claiming here. I was under the impression the MCU does not have the ability to use a wide variety of characters from the Spiderman back catalogue. However, that has nothing to do with merchandising and the theme park rights. I thought Dis has the full ability out West to incorporate whatever they want into the theme park.

Now of course I totally agree, they won't include whatever. There is no desire on their behalf to market Venom for example in their theme parks when the film rights still side with Sony. But desire is different from what they are able to do.

The Theme park universe is technically its own canon from the cinematic universe. But, it's so similar and borrows so heavily that it is relatively indistinguishable. Akin to the Netflix shows in a sense, the flow is unidirectional.

Disney/Marvel Studios negotiated for Spider-Man by acquiring the merchandising rights for only this version of Spider-Man, in exchange for producing the movie. Merchandising applies to all of Disney's "Experience and Consumer Products Division" which obviously includes Consumer Products as well as Parks & Resorts.

(There's a technicality here that I REALLY hesitate to bring up because of the tremendous confusion in here on the subject, but technically its "two versions" of Spider-Man: the MCU one and the generic/Marvel comics one. "Generic" referring to the Spider-man you see on kids backpacks, knock-off dollar store toys, action figures..etc.) That's also why you see a "generic" Spider-Man character in DCA.

Doubt Sony will. They're already developing a sequel to Spiderverse and a spin-off with just various Spider Women.

Yeah its no way Sony would sell Spider Man back to Marvel and in all honesty they shouldn't. Because remember its not just about SM, its about everyone else in that universe including Venom, which has basically made around $845 million! That's insane I don't think anyone saw that coming. That movie is only $40 million behind Homecoming now. And here is something else that may shock people but when you don't include the MCU films, Venom is now one of the most successful Marvel films ever! It has made more than all the X-Men and Deadpool films. And all the Spider-Man movies minus Spider-Man 3 (which still beats out Homecoming). Even when you do include MCU, it has still beaten 15 of those films. A character based on an anti-hero.

So Sony looks like its Marvel property is making a big come back, especially if the Spiderverse does really well too.
