I think it morphs into something - perhaps that Sinister 6, or a Spidey 3

'Spider-Man' Spinoff 'Silver & Black' Reportedly Stuck in Development

After helping bring Cloak & Dagger to life for Marvel Television, Gina Prince-Bythewood was riding high and hopeful to transition to Sony's burgeoning Spider-Man cinematic universe, but those plans might have hit a snag.

Now the director has signed on to helm a different comic book movie, while her Silver & Blackproject toils in development.

The news comes from the Hollywood Reporter when they revealed Prince-Bythewood has signed on to develop the Image Comics series The Old Guard for a motion picture. It is based on the comic by Greg Rucka and Leandro Fernandez, and will be produced by David Ellison, Dana Goldberg and Don Granger through Skydance.

In the report, it indicates that Prince-Bythewood's Black Cat and Silver Sable spinoff from the Spider-Man universe is stuck in development. The Old Guard, in comparison, is on the fast track toward production. Sony Pictures also took Silver & Black off of its release calendar, another sign that the movie hit a snag.

Sony made a deal with Marvel Studios to add Peter Parker to their hugely successful shared universe of superhero movies, making Spider-Man a major part of the Avengers franchise. The character has already appeared in three movies, and is getting a second solo movie in 2019.

But Sony still retains the rights to the Spider-Man universe of characters, including Venom and Black Cat. Tom Hardy will star in Venom, which is due out later this October. Sony planned to follow up that movie with Silver & Black, though it remains to be seen if that project will come to fruition.

Venom hasn't hit theaters yet, but Sony is still confidently moving forward with their cinematic Spider-Man universe, and now some new details have come out on the universe's slate of films.

According to a new report from Variety, the Gyna Prince-Bythwood directed Silver & Black movie is being scrapped, with Black Cat and Silver Sable receiving individual solo films. Prince-Bythewood will also be departing as director but will remain attached to the new solo projects as a producer.

While this decision may be surprising to fans, the president of Columbia Pictures, Sanford Panitch, did provide some insight into this decision, saying: "Black Cat is enough of her own character with a great backstory and a canon of material to draw from to justify her own film."

However, that's not the only change coming to Sony's various Marvel projects, as it was also reported that Silk and Jackpot films were also in development, with the studio actively looking for writers to pen the scripts.

Along with this news the site also noted that Sony will "experiment with budget ranges," and that they want to make comic book movies along the lines of Deadpool and Logan.
