3. Trilogy Plans
Spectacular Spider-Man being a trilogy isn't surprising, but Marvel's plans are. The movies will apparently be released over three consecutive years, a move which is very different to the normal two or three year gap between the instalments of a franchise. They're also looking at a number of trilogies though, with each focusing on a different aspect of Peter Parker's life. In other words, fans will get to see him grow up just like Harry Potter. Expect a nine picture deal for whoever signs up to play Spider-Man then. This is actually a brilliant approach, and following Peter over the next decade or so as he goes from high school student to an adult will be a great journey to take moviegoers on. This just reinforces the fact that Marvel and Sony will likely look to cast young, and probably someone they can turn into a star. Either way, expect to see a lot more of Spider-Man from now on.
