Another SPIDER-MAN Spin-Off In The Works As Sony Gets THOR: RAGNAROK Scribe For BLACK CAT/SILVER SABLE Movie
Hot on the heels of the Venom spin-off news, it appears as though Sony is also developing a female-led Spider-Man spin-off, centered around the Black Cat & Silver Sable. Come take a look!
Well here's some very unexpected news to get you through the rest of hump day.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Sony Pictures has enlisted Chris Yost (Thor: The Dark World, Thor: Ragnarok) to pen the script for their second upcoming Spider-Man spin-off film, which will center around popular supporting players Black Cat and Silver Sable. His screenplay will build on an already existing draft from Westworld co-creator Lisa Joy.
Their report states that the movie has been in development for quite some time and had previously been operating under the label of "secret female spinoff project." With a new writer now in place, the studio is hoping to begin meeting directors in the not-so-distant future as they are currently eyeing a fall start date for the female-led superhero movie. Matt Tolmach & Amy Pascal, who were listed as producers on The Amazing Spider-Man films, are also producing this project.
As for Venom, the report offers a small update, revealing that Sony has already begun courting several potential directors.
Additionally, THR's Borys Kit has confirmed on Twitter that this spin-off and the Venom spin-off will not be connected to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as at this point, Marvel Studios head honcho Kevin Feige is not involved in any capacity.
