The film rights to the superhero are owned by Sony ‑ but he could appear in movies like Avengers: Endgame due to a deal between Sony and Marvel Studios ‑ owned by Disney.
Sony says it hopes things "might change in future".
In a series of tweets, Sony thanked Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige for his "help and guidance" with the franchise.
Much of today’s news about Spider-Man has mischaracterized recent discussions about Kevin Feige’s involvement in the franchise. We are disappointed, but respect Disney’s decision not to have him continue as a lead producer of our next live action Spider-Man film. (1/3)
