With fans reeling from the news that Sony and Marvel/Disney are breaking up and Spider-Man will no longer be part of the MCU, there are a lot of questions about why it happened, who’s to blame, what happens next, and which studio has more to lose from no longer collaborating to make Spidey movies.
Is this a case of Marvel wanting too much (reportedly up to 50 percent of the gross from the next solo Spidey film)? Is this Sony being short-sighted on going it alone again after the MCU Spidey revitalized the property following the less successful Amazing Spider-Man films?
