Sony is making plans to release an animated Spider-Man movie a year after Marvel Studios bring the character to theaters in his first solo outing since the deal between both companies.
According to Sony at CinemaCon, the animated feature film will be released on July 20, 2018, so it means the live-action Spider-Man movie will hit theaters in 2017, the same year Warner Bros. is aiming to bring Wonder Woman in her first solo movie to the big screen.
Sony Pictures chairman, Tom Rothman, says that Phil Lord and Chris Miller are the men behind the animated movie. For those who are unaware, Chris Miller and Phil Lord are the minds behind The Lego Movie and Clouds with a Chance of Meatballs. Both men also developed 21 Jump Street and its sequel, 22 Jump Street.
