Slingers (Marvel Comics) - Wikipedia

Sony should adapt these guys. They are a fun group of C-list superheroes that have potential. Sony owns the rights and Fiege is less likely to use them.

They are also born out of a storyline where Spider-Man was accused of murder. Peter dawns these 4 new costumes in order to investigate the conspiracy. You could bring Tobey Macguire back as a older Spider-Man that's a reluctant mentor to these 4 new heroes.

just a thought.

Morbius' Jared Leto Drops a Blatant Sinister Six/Spider-Man Tease

Morbius star Jared Leto teases "sinister" villain team-ups following Spider-Man: No Way Home's multiverse-opening trailer.

I guess its gonna happen sooner or later.

The Lizard (Rhys Ifans) wants to throw hands with Venom. Fair enough I guess. All these characters just want to fight each other.

Jackpot (comics) - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Jackpot was a new character was hinted at being Mary Jane Watson. She isn't but I'd be interested in a story were she was MJ. It could be a Spider-Gwen style flick where MJ becomes a superhero. I'm open to Zendaya, Shailene Woodley, or Kirsten Dunst reprising their role.

Black Cat (Marvel Comics) - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

I'd adapt the 90's cartoon take on Black Cat. She'd start out as a college girl whose dad was a cat burglar. Peter tries to mentor her as she seeks revenge for her father's death. They fall in love but it doesn't last.

If Sony wants a Black Cat spinoff, that could still work with this setup. Instead of being an alternate universe it's an offscreen adventures. Most heist films don't have interesting villians so you could just dust some z-list villian like the Chance. You just need someone threathening and connected enough to be a threat.

Good, so the movie Morbius is more like his original "vampire" self that sucks blood with his fangs.

And not that "censored" version where he sucks "blood plasma" through his palms.

Spider-Man Spinoff Madame Web Casts Dakota Johnson in Title Role

Dakota Johnson, known for Fifty Shades of Grey and The Social Network, joins Sony's Spider-Man spinoff Madame Web as the titular character.

www.cbr.com

Dakota Johnson gets cast as Madame Web. Whose probably gonna be a mix of these two characters.

Madame Web - Wikipedia

Julia Carpenter - Wikipedia

Madame Webb is probably gonna be the Nick Fury character- bringing the other characters together for the inevitable team-up film.

Donald Glover to Star in, Produce Spider-Man Movie Based on Villain Hypno-Hustler (Exclusive)

Fans previously wanted the actor to play Spidey in 'The Amazing Spider-Man.'

www.hollywoodreporter.com

This is just getting ridiculous...lol

I'm all for giving lesser known characters a shot but this is a stretch. However I'm curious about what Glover would do with the film as I love his TV show Atlanta.

I rather he was playing the Prowler instead. You have a stronger character with a connection to Miles Morales. It feels like a more practical choice.

I'm hoping the character's design is like this fanart.

Maybe Sony should look at indie directors to give themselves an edge?

Mary Jane Watson is now a superhero - that's the headline

Spider-Man's ex-wife and on-and-off again love interest now has superpowers including control over pudding

www.gamesradar.com

I figured out what they should do with Jackpot.

She was an obscure superhero hinted to be Mary Jane Watson. So the movie could just follow that plot thread further.

You got two good options in Zendeya and Shailene Woodley.

Kraven's solo movie is still happening.
