Hmm, interesting. Wonder if this will be about Peter pre-Civil War. If so we may get the MCU's Uncle Ben then.

Looks like I was right.

Disney+ Day 2021 is here, and it’s kicking into high gear with brand new announcements coming out of the Marvel Cinematic Universe with what’s to come from the streaming service. During Marvel Studios' 2021 Disney+ Day Special — which is currently streaming exclusively on Disney+ — it was announced that viewers will get a new look at Peter Parker in Marvel Studios’ Spider-Man: Freshman Year.

The animated series follows Peter Parker on his way to becoming Spider-Man in the MCU, with a journey unlike we've ever seen and a style that celebrates the character’s early comic book roots. Written by Executive Producer Jeff Trammel.

Are they getting Tom Holland to voice?

"But NWH is his last movie! They only made the deal so Sony can take the character back!" - Cause corporations make deals only to make fans feel better.

I need to see an Uncle Ben voiced by Joe Pesci so we can get a My Cousin Vinny reunion.

If this is on DIsney+ then Disney and Sony have clearly come to some arrangement, considering that the MCU Spider-Man movies still aren't on the platform. This series just seems MCU overkill to me. Disney are getting as bad with the MCU as they are with Star Wars, just churning out too many things to keep constantly watching

Doesn’t Marvel own the TV animation rights to Spidey?

Oh man. I absolutely LOVE the way Doctor Strange looks! That's fantastic!

Unfortunately confirmed to not be MCU universe. Instead of Tony mentoring Peter, it's Osborne. There's a still that mirrors the shot from Civil War in the apartment.

I see that as a good thing. So it's free of any shackles. It's going to be hard to top Spectacular Spider-Man, though.

I miss Spectacular so much I’m hoping this new show will bring me back to animated Spidey tho. Didnt really care for his Disney channel show.

[Mikezilla3k]

Well, damn this is a surprise.

Was not expecting them to go full Spidey here. Have a feeling they're gonna merge this and the MCU later on.....

Which I would not mind at all. Especially considering the Osborns and Aunt May

[Mikezilla3k]

Well, shit. The crew of the show has been cryptically posting tweets that seem to imply that the show may be getting canned:




At this point, I have to wonder if Feige just dislikes Spidey and just wants him in the MCU for moolah. He's verging on Arad-levels of incompetence here.

Update from the Cosmic Circus about the show addressing a bunch of the rumors: https://www.thecosmiccircus.com/excl...freshman-year/

Right now, fans are in a frenzy regarding a number of cryptic tweets that have recently been surging from several members of the Spider-Man: Freshman Year production crew. From what has slowly risen the past couple of days, it is believed that part of, if not most of, the animation team behind the first season of the show is being “laid off” from their current positions and that the same team that worked on this season will not be returning for the second season, otherwise known as Spider-Man: Sophomore Year.

Many have speculated that this spells doom for the show, some even believing that Spider-Man: Freshman Year could be outright canceled due to a “lack of interest in animation.” These unverified rumors have pretty much tangled up everything into a massive cobweb where no one knows what’s going on.

From what we are currently being told from multiple sources, Spider-Man: Freshman Year is still set to premiere at some point in 2024, with some sources stating that it could air in the Fall of 2024. This idea that the show might get canceled has been floated around. But that’s currently what it is, just an idea. Not something that has been acted upon as of yet and may not be acted upon at all.

However, before moving forward with Spider-Man: Sophomore Year, it is our understanding that Marvel Studios will seek to gauge the interest from audiences worldwide regarding the show. This is part of the reason why most of the crew is currently being let go as of now. Depending on how popular the series becomes, and if it becomes a more considerable success than its predecessors, then Marvel could reevaluate going forward with the second season or not. There is also the factor of budget cuts currently taking place at Marvel Studios, and not just in terms of animation.

One of the characters fans are excited to see pop up in the upcoming animated series is Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock, aka Daredevil. And I can tell you, even if it’s in animated form, regardless of the universe, he’s in, he’s still getting his “hallway scene.” We can report that one of the episodes featuring Daredevil will introduce him in spectacular fashion.

From what we’ve heard, Daredevil will have a fight scene in an alleyway reminiscent of his hallway fight scene from the Netflix series. In this sequence, he’ll use his billy clubs and cables to take on a group of bad guys. It’ll be interesting to see how Daredevil fits into the story, although we may have a clue regarding his appearance.

According to one of the sources we’ve spoken to, one of the main reasons Daredevil is in the show is so he and Spidey can team up to take on the infamous Kingpin. And according to this source, Vincent D’Onofrio will voice the role of the character. This hasn’t yet been backed up by other sources, so I will classify this as a rumor I heard for now, but it seems only natural that D’onofrio would join Charlie Cox as Kingpin in the animated world as well.

Intriguingly, the Daredevil/Spider-Man team-up against Kingpin will happen in this animated format, but it is not necessarily uncommon. Sources told us that the show and the movie were meant to parallel each other as these moments happened in alternate universes. We’ll have to see how this plays out.

I think most of the production problems are being caused by Sony complaining that they wanted to use the characters for their own solo movies with their villain universe from the Venom movies and Morbius.

The production problems are reportedly occurring cuz Marvel has spread themselves too thin between all the movies, live-action shows and animation shows. It seems Feige bit off a bit more than he could chew which sucks for fans.
