I'm really late to this whole Spider-Man debacle but I wanted to throw my two cents into the bucket on the issue. It sucks that Sony and Disney are doing this to Spider-Man but it is what it is. Leaving it on such a big cliff hanger instead of just allowing Marvel to do one more movie to tie up all the loose ends would have been so nice but that can't happen. Ideally, this was going to set up for a story line similar to Kraven's last hunt which is one of the top tier Spider-Man comics in recent memory and Kraven could have been an excellent villain. However, this also does allow Spider-Man to leave and then if he returns, he has a reasonable explanation that he's been hiding with the identity stuff.

Now that Sony has Spider-Man, they want to do the Venom crossover which is fine. The Venom movie was good when it focused on Eddie and Venom, lets just forget about the horrible villain...... The idea of Woody Harrison as Carnage is alright I suppose, He's a good actor but I feel that he might be a little bit too old for the role. However, I do see Sony ending up with egg on the face when their Spider-Man movies are completed and it sucks. Whilst Holland's Spider-Man and Hardy's Venom will work really well, I don't see Leto's Morbius working at all. To me, it's just a lack of interest. To add onto this, I believe that Sony are going to sacrifice character development for theatrics. Essentially, none of Holland's character building will matter and Sony are going to try hammer in the Sinister Six as soon as possible and it's going to lead to the same issues that ended Garfield and Maguire's bits as Spider-Man. During this time, I believe that Marvel and Disney will continue to grow and will eventually scoop up the Spider-Man rights for a nice price once the movies don't make as much as Sony want. I also feel that Disney are going to get those Hulk rights from Universal to complete their collection.

So, with Spider-Man existence in the MCU gone for now, it opens up a new slot for the next big three. We already knew that Spider-Man and Doctor Strange and Captain Marvel were going to be this new trio but now it really opens the spot for Black Panther to take over the third spot. As well as this, I hope the side characters like Ned and MJ stay around with Holland. I hated Zendaya in Homecoming but she was so much better in Far From Home.
