It’s the possibility of the story going in that direction that has me intrigued. Sounds like something Ryan Reynolds would do.Well, since that video has the writers wrong, it'll be pretty big grain.
my hope: that they don’t integrate Deadpool into the MCU. I love the Deadpool movies and looking forward to there being more but they don’t really fit into the MCU, plus I don’t want to see any links (even tenuously) between the MCU and Fox X-Men
I don't see that as a possibility. While I do want to see Deadpool join the mcu, if he didn't, I think it could still work. Disney spent way to much money on fox to not integrate xmen and Deadpool into their golden goose franchise. Deadpool was never really a constant part of the avengers anyway. So I could see Deadpool being mostly seperate and then joining up for the event films. Spider-Man and Deadpool have had some good stories, so I would like to see that play out.
Given how the MCU is leading into the Secret Invasion/Secret Wars story arc there is no way that DP will be sidelined from that (or the X-Men either for that matter).
It’s not a big deal to me either way, but there’s zero chance Feige is going to support a non-MCU Marvel universe. That’s why he cancelled all of Marvel TV’s shows when he took over. There’s just one Marvel going forward.
Helstrom proceeded. He's playing nice with Sony over their Spider/Venomverse and Spiderverse Animation. Animated Marvel series continue that operate in an adjacent multiverse. A MODOK animated series is finishing production. Marvel in theme parks exist in an adjacent multiverse.
I'm not sure why you don't think DP fits into the MCU. The good thing about the MCU is that each film has the ability to be independent while still being part of the larger narrative being told. So the same can be done with the DP films, still independent in the story within the film, but still contributing to the larger narrative being told in the next saga.
This is really it for me. In Feige I trust. He hasn't let me down yet so I have to believe it will be done right. Realistically he has probably had a plan for Deadpool and the xmen since well before Disney purchased Fox. He seems like the kind of guy to have multiple story paths and what if scenarios "just in case". I feel like that's why Spidey fit in so easy.
My comments were strictly about live action Marvel shows/movies. If Feige had taken over sooner I think he stops Helstrom. Though he had all Marvel branding removed from the show.
The latest rumor is that Venom takes place in the Andrew Garfield Spidey universe. So the moment Andrew Garfield shows up in Spider-Man 3 with Tom Holland (and Tobey Maguire), then Venom is part of the MCU. How that plays into Venom 2 we don't know yet, but it's all interesting times ahead for the MCU and Sony universes.
With Jamie Foxx returning for Spider-Man 3 that makes sense. I could be mistaken but didn't they film Venom 2 around the time of the Sony/Disney breakup? I wonder how that impacted them referencing anything.
Why would that have any impact? Spider-Man is technically owned by Sony in terms of the film rights. So in reality its Marvel that is getting access to him. So Venom 2 would have no issues with getting Tom Holland if they wanted to have the "MCU" Spider-Man in the film.
100% but until they knew the direction of Spider-Man 3 and the MCU deal, they may not of had Venom 2 rely heavily on Spider-Man. We now know under the new deal Holland will be appearing in the Sony-verse movies going forward.
Yes but we're talking now not over a year ago which is when everything was up in the air. While 2020 has brought us a pause in releases of new MCU content, the news out of Marvel has not. We've been getting constant news this whole year.
