For many fans who like "Spider-Man", if you choose one of the three versions of the "Spider-Man" series today, it is estimated that 10 fans will have 10 choices -
Andrew Garfield's The Amazing Spider-Man series!
As recognized by many fans as the most handsome version of Spider-Man at present, Andrew Garfield's "Extraordinary Spider-Man" also contributed to the most "poignant" love in the Spider-Man movie series, and the key is to end in tragedy.
This is also a reason why many fans are not willing to look back at "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" so far, and at the same time, at the same time, when countless fans were still looking forward to "The Amazing Spider-Man 3", Sony Pictures directly announced -
There is no third part!
After that, it didn't take long to turn around and start working with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and then the "Spider-Man" that came online was the "Dutch brother" version we see now
So why did Sony Pictures suddenly announce the cutting of the third "The Amazing Spider-Man"?
I have talked to you some times before, and there are 2 reasons for the more mainstream reasons that were exposed at that time:
[1] The discord between the lead actor and the director;
At that time, after the sequel of the film was abandoned, it was directly exposed that the director of the film said that "the actor is not OK", believing that the film's failure was entirely due to the actor Andrew Garfield's failure to meet his own requirements.
In response, andrew Garfield at the time simply responded with "I've tried my best!" However, from the perspective of the audience, in fact, Andrew's acting skills in the movie are still very good, and the cut of the sequel to the movie is really not necessarily as the director said.
But it was true that the director's relationship with Andrew was very stiff at the time.
[2] The box office did not meet the expectations of Sony Pictures;
Another reason for Sony Pictures to cut "The Amazing Spider-Man 3" is that the cumulative box office of the two "Amazing Spider-Man" movies at that time was 1.5 billion US dollars, which did not meet Sony Pictures' original expectations.
Therefore, the final choice was made to end this IP movie.
In this regard, personally, in fact, it is not to say that the first 2 films of the "Amazing Spider-Man" series are not good at the box office, after all, the box office performance of 1.5 billion US dollars is still good, but it does not make enough money to achieve the goal of Sony Pictures.
In addition to the above 2 reasons, the recent Marvel new book "Marvel Studios Story" also revealed another unknown third reason:
The proposal behind Marvel!
Simply put —
After filming "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" at Sony Pictures, in fact, at first he did not think of ending this series of works, on the contrary, Amy Pascal, the chairman of Sony Pictures at the time, also invited Marvel's Kevin Feige to dinner, hoping to get some inspiration from Kevin Feige's side about the "Extraordinary" 3-part series.
As a result, what Amy Pascal did not expect was that Marvel itself held a meeting before this meal, and the core of the meeting was "to let Sony Pictures give up developing the extraordinary Spider-Man 3 and instead let Spider-Man enter the Development of the Marvel Cinematic Universe"!
"Before they met, Kevin Feige couldn't wait to bring their core producers together for an ad hoc meeting, and if Peter Parker had even the slightest chance of becoming part of the MCU, he (Kevin Fitch) wanted to have a plan in place."
Therefore, Amy Pascal, the chairman of Sony Pictures, who originally rushed to get the inspiration for the third "The Amazing Spider-Man" from Kevin Feige's side, finally did not expect to be moved by Kevin Feige with another careful thought-
Let Spider-Man continue to appear as the image of "high school student" Peter Parker, and Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios began to share and cooperate with the version of the "Spider-Man" IP, which led to the follow-up "Dutch Brother" version of "Hero Return", "Hero Expedition" and now "Hero No Return"!
However, one of the costs behind this collaboration is that there will be no more Spider-Man 3 movies
Honestly --
At the beginning of seeing this "reason behind it", it is still a bit stingy, after all, the regrettable ending of "Amazing Spider-Man 2" still makes many fans hope that "Amazing Spider-Man 3" can be broken back, but because of Marvel's proposal, it has finally become impossible.
But looking back, in fact, this may be a choice for the "Spider-Man" IP to develop to the greatest extent, after all, for the lone Spider-Man, more about the plot of Spider-Man in the Marvel Universe in the original book may be what this character needs most.
Obviously, Sony Pictures also recognized this reality at that time, otherwise it would not have agreed to cut "The Amazing Spider-Man 3".
Of course, now in the Marvel Cinematic Universe's "Spider-Man 3: Homeless", we have the opportunity to see Andrew's "Extraordinary Spider-Man" again, which is another kind of regret
