While promoting The
Amazing Spider-Man 2, producers Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach spoke to IGN and said
that although there was a little business/stunt with the (spoiler) X-Men: Days
of Future Past clip as oppose to a normal post-credit scene there are no
immediate plans for a crossover with other studios' properties, but...
"I think I'm probably a little bit of the militant here," adding "I think it will take a moment in which we've run out of ideas."
Arad believes there is still plenty to explore in the Spider-Man universe.
"There's
so much to tell about Spider-Man. There's so much to tell about the Sinister
Six. The relationship between Spider-Man and Venom will bring a whole other
world in."
Tolmach intervene on the possible crossover question by saying:
"You know Avi always refers to that question as a stunt. If you were to do
that, you know, Spider-man in the Avengers is a stunt.
And I get why everybody - you know, fans and audience members and movie goers - I understand it. When you think about the Sinister Six and you think about Venom and you think about Carnage and you think about Spider-man in whatever way you want in association with those movies, they feel like they're built for Spider-man. Like that's where his story needs to go and wants to go, and it has to be about more than a stunt.
Stunts can be cool but its also a business, and so the other side of the answer is they're owned by different companies. And there's a ton left in Sony's world - there's a lot of business left because there's a lot of story left.
So for them to want to take this character and put it with Marvel and Disney is a huge undertaking and probably, as Avis' saying, isn't necessary until you feel like, 'Wow, we're sort of out of ideas. what should we do? And we're far from out of ideas."
So, eager to see Spider-Man join the Avengers?
