There were firm plans in place to release a female-focused Spider-Man spinoff at some point this year, sandwiched between Sinister Six and The Amazing Spider-Man 4, as part of Sony Pictures' shared universe obsession.

Who this spinoff would have focused on was never officially announced, but the prime candidates are Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew/Julia Carpenter/Mattie Franklin) or Spider-Girl (May Parker/Anya Corazon).

At the time, Silver Sable, Black Cat, Stunner and Firestar were also touted as candidates for honour of headlining the honour first ever female-fronted Spider-Man film.

Westworld screenwriter Lisa Joy would have provided a script for the film had it entered production.

Like Sinister Six, we may never see this project as it was originally envisaged due to its shared DNA with Amazing Spider-Man, but Sony is working on a fresh Black Cat and Silver Sable project, which is expected to tie in with Tom Hardy's Venom.
