9 Big Predictions About Sony’s Spider-Man Universe
1. Sony Will Announce A Spider-Man 2099 Movie
Sony may not have Peter Parker at its disposal, or Miles Morales for that matter, but there are other Spider-Men it could potentially ensnare for its cinematic universe.
Among them is Miguel O'Hara, better known as Spider-Man 2099, a futuristic incarnation of the wall-crawler who battles villains such as Morlun, the Venom-like Kron Stone and the evil Alchemax corporation.
A Spider-Man 2099 movie would be a superhero film unlike any other due to its heavy science fiction elements. Sure, Guardians of the Galaxy has cosmic themes, but this would take place in New York's distant future - it would essentially be Spider-Man meets Minority Report.
Miguel O'Hara could also give the SpiderVerse its Captain America-type hero, except in reverse. It would be a period film that gives fans a look at what will become of the cinematic universe in the long run, rather than delving into the past.
Moreover, the 2099 Spidey has also found himself in present day in a number of comic books, so a time-jumping movie that throws him into the mix with Venom, Black Cat and Silver Sable wouldn't be out of the question.
Even if Sony chose to keep Miguel separate from the other characters, the chance to make a Spider-Man 2099 movie is one the studio shouldn't turn down, because it could be radically different to anything in the MCU or the DC movie universe.
