Silver Sable

Although ‘Silver & Black’ is off the table, the studio is plotting numerous standalone films set in and around the Spider-Man universe, including ‘Nightwatch’ and ‘Jackpot,’ along with previously announced films like ‘Kraven the Hunter’ and ‘Morbius.’

Sony is filling out its release calendar for the next two years, and today they’ve found slots for two of their most exciting projects. Black and Silver, the Spider-Man spinoff featuring characters Black Cat and SIlver Sable, is hitting theaters at the beginning of 2019, and Sicario sequel Soldado, which will see the return of Benicio Del Toro’s scary drug kingpin hunter, has been set for summer of next year.

Well would ya look at that – a major studio just hired a female director to helm a female superhero movie. Is this really 2017 or are we dreaming?

Sony’s Spiderverse is steadily growing. With plans for at least one Venom movie announced last week, the wheel of spinoffs has been set in motion. Today, the studio announced it was working on a team-up movie with heroes Silver Sable and Black Cat, with a script by Chris Yost, who’s one of the writers of Marvel’s upcoming Thor: Ragnarok.

During that big Sony hack, emails revealed interesting plans for the Spider-Man universe, which included Drew Goddard’s Sinister Six film and an all-female Spidey character spinoff tentatively titled Glass Ceiling. When the studio teamed up with Marvel to reboot the web-slinger (again), those plans were taken off the table, but it looks like one project might be resurfacing (again).
