Sony has announced that the upcoming Spider-Man will now be released on July 7, 2017.
Earlier today, Star Wars: Episode 8 evacuated its May 26, 2017 release date and set up camp on December 15, 2017.
The studio’s Jumanji reboot, which was originally slated for December 25th 2017, has now been brought forward to July 28th 2017, shifting as far away from Star Wars as possible.
Currently, no other movie is scheduled for July 7, 2017, although Uncharted and Despicable Me 3 are scheduled to come out a week prior. It’s possible Disney is having troubles filming that film so Spider-Man took its place. That’s even more true for presumed blockbusters like the new Spider-Man flick, which get the full marketing effort of Disney (this time, anyway) behind them.
The film now has the release date to itself. After all, this film finds Sony collaborating with Marvel Studios to introduce Spidey into their Marvel Cinematic Universe, which will see Peter Parker (played by Tom Holland) share the screen with the likes of Iron Man and Captain America.
