It’s looking increasingly likely some movies set for next year could be delayed to a later date, including Sony’s still-untitled Spider-Man 3. In a new report, British Film Institute listed a handful of productions that have been delayed due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, including The Batman, Disney’s live-action The Little Mermaid reboot, and you guessed it…Spider-Man 3. Earlier this year, it was expected the Tom Holland-starring flick would begin filming this July, meaning a delayed suggests studios are looking much longer into the future that some might have expected. Monday evening, Sony announced it was delaying most of the movies it had set for release this summer, including July’s Morbius.

 

Shortly after news surfaced Shang-Chi and the Legend of Ten Rings had temporarily halted principal photography in Australia, separate reports surfaced suggesting Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness was still on track to begin filming in June. As you’re likely aware, Spider-Man 3 would technically be a Sony production, showing the current thought processes between the Culver City-based studio and Marvel Studios aren’t quite on the same page — at least as of yet.

 

Earlier this month, Holland said he had read the script for Spidey 3, saying it was “insane.” “I’m super happy about it,” the MCU star told Inquirer.Net. “We will be shooting ‘Spider-Man 3’ in July in Atlanta.”
