Well it’s set, Sony’s Marvel film properties have an official name – the Sony Pictures Universe of Marvel Characters (SPUMC).
In recent times people have been labelling the films – which include “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse,” “Venom,” all the previous Spider-Man films, and some upcoming titles – either the Spidey-verse or the Spider-Man Universe of Characters.
However IGN reached out to the studio this week for clarification on what their Marvel movie universe should be called and were told its official name is the ‘Sony Pictures Universe of Marvel Characters’. The studio apparently first coined the term for the films back in 2019.
Four more titles set in this universe are on the way with the already shot Jared Leto-led “Morbius” up next on March 19th 2021. That will be followed by “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” which managed to complete filming before the shut down and is set for June 25th 2021.
Then comes the third film in the current “Spider-Man” cycle with Tom Holland to shoot his SPUMC commitment once he wraps Sony’s “Uncharted”. The new Spidey solo outing is targeting a November 5th 2021 release.
Finally there’s “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 2” which will hit October 7th 2022.
