Sony recently made headlines when they announced plans for a spin-off of the Spider-Man franchise for 2017. Now alone, this isnt much newsAmazing Spider-Man 2 already set the stage for a Sinister Six movie, and Sony is also apparently interested in a Venom movie as well. But what made this big news is that this spin-off will feature a female superhero. Superheroines in movies have largely been restricted to team films like X-Men or Avengers or kept in supporting roles like Catwoman in The Dark Knight Rises, Black Widow in Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Wonder Woman in the upcoming Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. Attempts to release solo films featuring these characters have largely been massive failures, like Foxs Elektra and Warner Bros Catwoman. Assuming that one of the untitled films in either Marvel or Warner Bros slate isnt a superheroine movie, Sony will be the first to release a superheroine movie that also ties into a larger cinematic universe. The question is which female superhero will Sony use? There are a number of female heroes in the Marvel Universe with ties to Spider-Man, but not all of them may be fair game for this film. Weve looked through the characters and compiled a list of ten potential candidates and the likelihood (or unlikelihood) of their chances at getting picked.
