Things have been developing quickly for Sony and Marvel’s reboot of Spider-Man. Excitement that the webslinger would finally be joining his fellow Avengers has been growing ever since the two studios made the decision to share the character. Jon Watts (Cop Car) was named as director of the film, with Tom Holland winning producers Amy Pascal (Sony) and Kevin Feige (Marvel) over during the audition process. Marisa Tomei also joins the cast as a much younger Aunt May.

Vacation and Horrible Bossses scribes John Francis Daley and Jonathan M. Goldstein were recently confirmed to write the script, and described Peter Parker as “a sharp kid and witty” kid who “kind of deals with the fact that he’s an outcast and a geek through humor.” Now Watts is talking about his plans for Marvel’s Spider-Man. Check out what he had to say below.

Vacation and Horrible Bossses scribes John Francis Daley and Jonathan M. Goldstein were among Sony’s top choices to direct their new Spider-Man film. Although the Jon Watts (Cop Car) got the job, the two were then tapped to write the screenplay. Now the pair has confirmed that they are on board to script the Spider-Man reboot, and promises that their version of the webslinger will be wittier and funnier than previous cinematic incarnations.

What a long, strange trip it has been for Ant-Man, Marvel Studios’ latest entry in their constantly expanding cinematic universe. It had been in development for a decade before it went before the cameras, and by then the director who had been with the project since its inception had long departed due to the dreaded “creative differences.” This has probably been the most difficult baby for Marvel to birth since The Avengers, and when Ant-Man brings Marvel’s Phase Two line-up to a rousing conclusion this weekend, we’ll finally find out if the movie has proven to be worth the wait.

I decided to trace Ant-Man‘s obstacle-fraught journey from the pages of Marvel Comics to the big screen beginning when the visionary British filmmaker Edgar Wright first signed on to develop a live-action feature based on the character. From 2010 onward, the development will be recounted as it was covered by several writers here at Geeks of Doom over the years, myself included.

Sony and Marvel Studios cast Tom Holland as Peter Parker/Spider-Man a few weeks back. It was also announced then that the movie would be directed by Jon Watts (Cop Car), though it wasn’t clear if he would also pen the script.

Previous reports said that Sony had met with a team of writers during their search for a director. Now it appears that they have settled on the Vacation reboot writing and directing team of John Francis Daley and Jonathan M. Goldstein to pen the script for the rebooted Spider-Man franchise.

This week, the much-anticipated Ant-Man hits theaters. Cast Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly, Michael Douglas, Corey Stoll, Michael Pena, director Peyton Reed, and MCU head superhero Kevin Feige sat down with press to talk about the exciting characters that are gonna hit the screen.
