When the Sony and Marvel Studios Spider-Man deal was first announced, it came with the added promise that discussions were underway for characters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe to appear in the solo Spider-Man movie. Now, speaking with EW, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has confirmed it will happen.
“He is in the universe now, and the fun of the universe is that characters go back and forth,” Feige tells the outlet.
Which characters might appear though? We know Spider-Man aligns himself with Tony Stark in the upcoming Captain America: Civil War, but there is still potential that the Star-Spangled Man could appear, especially after Spider-Man takes away his shield in front of everyone.
