Part 6/8:
Due to the underwhelming performance of films like Craven—deemed notably subpar even by those involved—there has now been a shift in leadership within Sony Pictures. Reports indicate that Vinciquerra has been replaced, leading to speculation about the future direction of the studio's superhero output.
The incoming leadership hints at a potential pivot back to focusing on its most bankable asset, Spider-Man, rather than an expanding universe of lesser-known characters and villains. This shift may signify a leaner, more targeted approach to filmmaking in a market laden with superhero fatigue.
