Thanks to Sony’s inability to take care of its talent behind and in front of the camera, they had to push back two of its major Marvel projects.
Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse was set to release on March 29, 2024. Sony is taking the movie off of the calendar for now, since actors cannot do any voice work. Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse is still in theaters and has made over $675 million worldwide, making this the first major franchise films to be delayed. The studio has yet to reveal a new date.
Kraven the Hunter was set for October 6 but is moving back 10 months to August 30, 2024. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Sony does not want to release the R-rated action film without a full marketing and publicity push that revolves around Aaron Taylor-Johnson, who plays the Spider-Man villain. The first trailer debuted just last month.
Disney has The Marvels still set for a November release but as strikes continue it is looking more and more likely it will move to 2024. Disney Animation Studios’ Wish is also looking like a project that could move with a string of recent animated disappoints, Disney would want a full marketing push with its talent that includes stars Ariana DeBose and Chris Pine.
The DisInsider supports those apart of 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.
