Spider-Man – amongst other well-known titles – will be swinging onto Disney+ following a massive film deal between Sony and Disney.

Beginning with Sony’s 2022 releases and running all the way through to 2026, the deal will bring Sony’s films to not only Disney+, but also the many other streaming platforms the Mouse House owns, from FX and Freeform to ABC and Hulu.

The massive movie deal, finalized by Chuck Saftler, head of business operations for ABC, Freeform, FX Networks and Acquisitions for Disney Media and Entertainment Distribution, and Keith LeGoy, president of worldwide distribution and networks for Sony Pictures Entertainment, is just one example of how the pandemic has changed the media viewing experience. In other words, television isn’t dying, contrary to popular belief – rather, the way people watch it is changing.

“This groundbreaking agreement reconfirms the unique and enduring value of our movies to film lovers and the platforms and networks that serve them,” Le Goy announced. “We are thrilled to team up with Disney on delivering our titles to their viewers and subscribers. This agreement cements a key piece of our film distribution strategy, which is to maximize the value of each of our films, by making them available to consumers across all windows with a wide range of key partners.”

While Disney+ spans 59 countries, the new deal will only cover the United States market, making an estimated $3 billion during its approximately five-year span. Once finalized, Sony’s “Spider-Man” films will be available on Disney’s platforms, as well as their other franchises including “Hotel Transylvania“, “Jumanji“, and “Stuart Little“.

On Wednesday morning, Tom Holland revealed the official title for the upcoming third Spider-Man film.

After teasing multiple fake titles on Instagram with co-stars Zendaya and Jacob Batalon, including “Spider-Man: Phone Home” and “Spider-Man: Home Slice,” the star posted a short clip on Instagram making public the official title of the film slated for release on December 17, 2021: the real title is Spider-Man: No Way Home.

Prior to this, Holland, Zendaya, and Batalon all posted unreleased stills from the upcoming film, but accompanied them with images featuring the fake titles. Fans figured out these titles were fake based on the generic captions they were accompanied with, such as Batalon writing, “We’re so excited to share the TITLE of our new movie!! Swipe right for the big reveal!!also enjoy this exclusive still from the movie, just an extra gift from us”

The film will be a co-production between Marvel Studios and Columbia Pictures, and Jon Watts will be returning as the director. Also set to appear in the movie are Alfred Molina as Doctor Octopus, Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange, and Jamie Foxx as Electro.
