# SPIDER-MAN MOVIES COMING TO DISNEY PLUS
Good news for Marvel fans: five Spider-Man movies are coming to Disney Plus soon. The Tobey Maguire-led trilogy, consisting of Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2 and Spider-Man 3, as well as The Amazing Spider-Man, will all be available to stream starting tomorrow, April 21st. Spider-Man: Homecoming and Venom will follow on May 12th.
# A MAJOR WIN FOR DISNEY PLUS
This announcement marks a major win for Disney Plus, which has been struggling to compete with other streaming services that have been hosting the popular superhero films. Because Sony Pictures owns the film rights to Spider-Man, the movies have been scattered across different platforms, making it difficult for fans to access them all in one place. Now, with the addition of these five titles, Disney Plus is one step closer to providing viewers with a comprehensive Marvel library.
# SOME MOVIES ARE STILL MISSING
It’s worth noting, however, that some Spider-Man movies are still missing from Disney Plus, including The Amazing Spider-Man 2 starring Andrew Garfield, and the second two Tom Holland-led films, Spider-Man: Far From Home, and Spider-Man: No Way Home. In addition, Venom: Let There Be Carnage is also not yet available. But thanks to a deal Sony made with Disney almost exactly one year ago, there’s hope that these films will make their way onto Disney Plus in the future.
# WHY THIS DEAL IS IMPORTANT
The deal between Sony and Disney is a significant one because it means that Spider-Man is now part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). This hasn’t always been the case, as Sony has held the rights to the character for decades. However, in recent years, the studio has collaborated with Marvel to produce several successful Spider-Man films that take place within the MCU. Bringing these films to Disney Plus will make it easier for fans to follow and enjoy the Spider-Man story arc.
In conclusion, the addition of these Spider-Man movies to Disney Plus is an exciting development for Marvel fans. While there are still some films missing, the fact that the majority of the series will now be housed on one platform is a significant step forward. And with the possibility of more films being added in the future, it’s safe to say that Disney Plus has cemented its place as a must-have service for superhero enthusiasts.
