SONY RE-RELEASES LIVE-ACTION SPIDER-MAN FILMS: Some are actually good

Mar 19, 2024 9:59 AM

Following the critical failure of Madame Web, Sony has decided to reissue all eight live-action Spider-Man films in theaters, reigniting fan nostalgia for the successful franchise. The re-release event starts on April 15th with the first 2002 Spider-Man movie and will continue weekly, featuring all films in chronological order, culminating with the cross-generational Spider-Man: No Way Home on June 3rd. These screenings will be a selective event, so fans should check the official website for local showings. Additionally, this re-release appears to be a strategic move to build up to Sony's forthcoming film, Kraven the Hunter.

Which Spider-Man movies are included in Sony's re-release, and when can I see them?

The films included in the re-release event are all three movies from the original Sam Raimi trilogy, both The Amazing Spider-Man films, and the Tom Holland trilogy: Spider-Man: Homecoming, Spider-Man: Far From Home, and Spider-Man: No Way Home. Starting from April 15th, you can catch these movies in release order each week at select theaters.

As background on the Spider-Man franchise, Sony Pictures has been releasing Spider-Man films since the early 2000s, starting with director Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy starring Tobey Maguire. This was followed by The Amazing Spider-Man series with Andrew Garfield taking over the web-slinging role. In recent years, Tom Holland has portrayed Spider-Man in a series of films co-produced by Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures, integrating the character into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Sony's Spider-Verse has also expanded to include films focused on characters from Spider-Man's universe, such as Venom and the animated hit Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.
