Holy shit, I still can't believe it.

I'm so confused... So Venom will be in the MCU?

Could it be? is Fox really joining forces with Disney/Marvel to take over the Film Industry?

Yes.

I don't know how I feel about this, haha. I mean, does it count as an MCU movie? A sony movie? I don't know.

My question is if Venom will only be reserved for his own/Spider-Man films, or if he can appear in other MCU films, too.

So much more confidence in the movie now.

That's why I'm so confused lol. I'm wondering if the MCU will even acknowledge the Venom movie, I remember reading somewhere that Spider-Man wouldn't even be apart of the MCU anymore after his sequel to Homecoming.

Sony needs to just sit back and let Marvel takeover IMO.

Didn't they announce a while back that it wasn't?

even better, Tom Holland is going to fight Tom Hardy....and lose :)

Hmmm. Guess we don't need a blakc suit saga. Especially with teenage peter (Though Ult Spider-man pulled it off)

@solid_snake97: I mean...he's a pretty big guy.

Maybe people will shut the hell up with premature judgement now.

Yeah I'm hyped for this.

I got an idea...

they set up a kickass spiderman movie and at the same time set up a kick ass venom movie then merge them.

@theamazingspidey said:

This press Junkets for movies is where no hype is killed, but even acknowledging that, by Pascal words they sound more like they are building a world for Spider-Man, (but not necessarily inside the Mcu) the Tom Holland third Spider-Man movie (that as for now will not be produced by Feige and Marvel Studios) may explore the Spider-verse...

Also, when i was watching Sony's movie Life, there was a point when i was thinking if that was a Venom prequel or something...

@theamazingspidey: Wrong, from what I've read it's a complex issue. Basically Venom is only canon to whatever happens with MCU Spider-Man. To the rest of the MCU, he's not and exists in the Sonyverse.

Best example of this is Alien v Predator. Everything from Alien is canon in AvP, but nothing from AvP is canon to Alien.

@theamazingspidey: so the Venom movie will have Spidey as a supporting character. Carnage will be the ultimate threat. Hopefully Hobgoblin makes an appearance in the film too. I wonder if Black Cat/ silver sable movie will be set in the MCU

@purpledeadragon: Sony has thenSpidey related characters movie rights, NOT Fox.

Oops, my bad.

@purpledeadragon: All I want is Fantastci Four in MCU :/

Huh. Thats good news

So...Brock or Thompson?

yes. Is it still going to be rated R?

That is the real question.

Good

This is not good. ????

Beata

Didn't we get the exactly the opposite news like a week ago lol.

Its hilarious how much people value having films be in the same universe. Because we all know unless there's some sort of easter egg fanservice or name dropping in any given film the film overall just might not as well exist.

Considering Kevin Feige didn't confirm anything of the sort and Amy Pascal has been known to talk out of line this is far from confirmed.

If anything this could just be desperation on Pascal's part so people start giving a shit about Silver & Black and Venom after hearing that so many people didn't care because they weren't in the MCU. Not to mention during the whole interview KF looks like a deer caught in the headlights as if he has no idea why she's saying what she's saying. This could mean that she wasn't suppose to say anything yet but I'm more pressed to believe that they aren't connected and its a look of "WTF are you talking about."

So yeah until we get an actual confirmation I'm not believing a word, especially not when those words are coming from Pascal.

I agree. I think they're just trying to do the samething they attempted with Garfield and build a universe around Spider-Man.

Now that you brought it up you have me thinking the samething now, especially with how it ended. I never paid any attention to which studio made the movie at first either.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Hmmm, I thought I read an article a couple days ago with Kevin Feige saying Venom won't be part of the MCU or include Spiderman.........and now this. Venom probably won't be rated R, if true lol. Overall, this is confusing and weird.

For you

Yeah we need someone from Marvel to confirm this.

Cool. I wish we would of gotten a full movie with Spider-Man wearing the suit tho.

Sounds good to me.

Brock.

@rock_hard: ...I approve.

Never watched life, but that Wikipedia page brought up some pretty interesting evidence that the two may be connected.

This is great news, that means we´ll have an R-Rated Venom in the MCU.

Thats good news.

Otherwise it would have sucked I think ...

Interesting. Hopefully it's good then.

Agreed.

Marvel will confirm or deny based on how good the movie is let's be honest

So normally I am not a fan of shoehorning multiple Avengers into a solo movie...

...But symbiote Hulk and Iron Man would be dank.

Kevin Feige was sitting right next to her nodding his head. This is pretty set in stone.

Thank God. I for real thought they were going to do a Venom movie with no Spider-Man connection ?...'cause y'know, SONY and all

Um did we watch the same video? Cause not only does he not nod his head he doesn't say a word throughout the entire interview, the only thing he does is smile at the interviewer when he asks if there is a chance. So I'd say it's pretty far away from being "set in stone".

@Feartheliving: lol what? You think she just sat up there and lied right next to the president of Marvel Studios?

I think he might've chimed in if that was the case.

You don't tell this stuff to an interviewer unless that is what the contracts are saying. And she made it pretty clear that it's set in the MCU.
