Sony could have kickstarted its own cinematic universe long before 2018's Venom ever came close to hitting theaters. Andrew Garfield's pair of The Amazing Spider-Man films from the early 2010s might not have been the best live-action Spider-Man outings, but the movies all had potential. Unfortunately, Sony gave up even before it could explore a threequel and other spin-offs set in the same universe.
Although the decision did pave the way for Tom Holland's time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, there are still fans who wonder what could have been had Sony gone through with its initial plans.
Following the successful premiere of 2021's Spider-Man: No Way Home, which saw all three versions of Spider-Man team up against a multiversal collection of classic Spider-Man villains, the calls for Garfield to reprise his former role grew louder. There were even rumors that Sony is considering a third The Amazing Spider-Man film, but there's been little news about similar earlier reports.
Now, it appears that all the fans asking for Sony to make The Amazing Spider-Man 3 finally have a chance to be acknowledged.
