The confusion as to whether the Venom and Silver and Black films will be a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is still very much up in the air. After Sony producer Amy Pascal mentioned last week that Venom and Silver and Black are a part of the Spider-Man: Homecoming universe, people began wondering if Spider-Man would be making an appearance in the two films and whether or not they would also connect to the MCU. Please note that earlier, Marvel president Kevin Feige said that the films were not a part of the MCU.
Speaking with CinemaBlend while promoting Spider-Man: Homecoming, Tom Holland answered the question regarding whether or not we would be seeing him pop up in the Venom movie. He said that it’s something “far beyond” his control.
“That is something that is far beyond my control. As I know now, I am in the MCU. I am the MCU Spider-Man. I exist in the world of the Avengers. The Venom movie takes place in a different universe, so I have no plans to show up in those movies any time soon. But you know, things change! We’ll have to wait and see.”
Directed by Jon Watts, the film stars Tom Holland, Michael Keaton, Zendaya, Donald Glover, Tony Revolori, Kenneth Choi, Hannibal Buress, Abraham Attah, Marisa Tomei and Robert Downey Jr. Here is the official synopsis for the next Spider-Man movie:
A young Peter Parker (Tom Holland), who made his sensational debut in Captain America: Civil War, begins to navigate his newfound identity as the web-slinging super hero in Spider-Man: Homecoming. Thrilled by his experience with the Avengers, Peter returns home, where he lives with his Aunt May (Marisa Tomei), under the watchful eye of his new mentor Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.). Peter tries to fall back into his normal daily routine – distracted by thoughts of proving himself to be more than just your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man – but when the Vulture (Michael Keaton) emerges as a new villain, everything that Peter holds most important will be threatened.
Spider-Man: Homecoming will be released in theaters on July 7, 2017.
