Madame Web Uses A Story MCU’s Spider-Man 4 Would Be Too Scared To Use

Madame Webintroduces a newdark Spider - Man by the name of Ezekiel Simsto the Sony universe , becomingthe first time a Spider - Person is the only villainof one of its movies . establish on the trailer , Ezekiel appears to have second-sighted abilities like Cassandra , and these power belike partake the same origin , as Ezekiel once worked with Cassandra ’s mother before she expire . Ezekiel sees that , in the future , he is obliterate by three Spider - People named Julia Carpenter ( Spider - Woman ) , Anya Corazon ( Spider - Girl ) , and Mattie Franklin ( Spider - Woman ) .

Sony has explore stories with dark and villainous Spider - People before , notably with Peter Parker becoming corrupted by the Venom symbiote inSpider - Man 3and Miguel O’Hara ’s authoritarianism inSpider - Man : Across the Spider - Verse . The MCU could introduce a dark Spider - Man story in its fourthSpider - Manmovie , but it is unconvincing consider this version of Peter has only ever been draw as heroic . Spider - Man : No Way Homerevealed that Peter is heroic to a fault , as it is his secure nature that direct to multiversal villains play havoc in his humans . Because MCU Peter has been portrayed as exceptionally well , a plot line with Spider - Man going varlet would be a pretty radical change .

Why The MCU’s Spider-Man Likely Won’t Ever Have Marvel’s Darker Storylines

TheMCU in all probability will never depict stories with its Spider - Man going glum , as it would be bad for branding . MCU ’s Peter stand up out because of how genial and good - natured he is , even compared to his multiversal counterparts . His variants inNo Way Homeserve as his mentorsand encourage him to stay on his heroic , righteous path as they both have go down gloomy paths in their past times and profoundly rue them . This honorable - natured variant of Peter has been highly democratic with audiences and accommodate flop in with Disney ’s family - friendly steel , so it is improbable that Marvel will ever make him go dark , as it would be a self-aggrandising peril to take with one of its most successful heroes .

MCU’sPeter exit black would also undo a lot of his fictitious character developmentinNo Way Home , as lose Aunt May was the first time he suffered a personnel casualty so great that it made him consider act out of vengeance rather than valiancy . He is set to belt down Green Goblin until Tobey Maguire ’s Peter finish him . Peter then make the ultimate sacrifice by making everyone draw a blank him , further cement his fundamentally upright nature . The nextSpider - Manmovie depicting him as dark would potentially undo a lot of that maturation . So , for now , audience can experience a dark live - activity Spider - Man inMadame Web .
