Marvel doesn't have the rights back to Spider-Man, they just made a deal where Sony lets them use him. Sony still is in full ownership of the character's film rights and still have final say. That's not to say you're wrong, but just if anyone will make the decision (with of course Marvel's input), it'll be Sony.
Yup. Of course, Sony only owns the rights to the Peter Parker version of Spider-Man. Miles didn't even exist when Sony got the rights. Of course, while Miles is a completely different character, he's still Spider-Man, which would've prevented Marvel Studios from doing a live action film version of Miles while Sony still held the rights to Peter, due to brand recognition/confusion/infringement laws likely laid out in the original contract between Sony and Marvel.
All that said, I do think this guy is pulling this completely out of his ass, especially since he's offering no proof whatsoever.
Further, you have to consider it from Marvel's point of view in terms of the comics. Peter Parker Spider-Man is still one of their most popular franchises. Granted Miles is popular too, but I don't think he has anywhere near the readership numbers that Amazing Spider-Man has, nor will he even once he crosses over into the 616 universe after Secret Wars. At least not for a long time, and even then that's unlikely since he's still and always will be a spin-off of a different version of the original Spider-Man. Much as I love Miles, that's the case.
I do think there's validity to the idea that eventually they'll do Miles in the MCU, but most likely only after they do several movies focusing on Peter Parker, which eventually they'll do a passing of the mantle movie where Miles becomes the new Spidey.
And given the rumors surrounding Civil War (and Cap potentially dying and then Bucky stepping up as the new Cap), Thor - Ragnarok (with all the Asgardians, including Thor, likely killed off), etc, there does seem to be a coming transition to new characters after the original actors move on. I actually think it's more likely most of the big name Avengers will die fighting Thanos in Infinity War, Part II, and Phase 4 will see the introduction of new actors and characters in the roles of Cap, Thor, and possibly even Iron Man.
I do think Peter Parker will survive Infinity War, Part 2 (since that'll be less than two years after his premiere in the MCU), but eventually he'll be killed off in a. solo film, and Miles will get his shot.
Correct, instead of paying for Clark Gregg, Chloe Bennett, and whoever else extra, they only have to pay Charlie Cox extra. Thus less payment
.
Ah, ok, fair point.
Sif is coming back and they're tying that in. Mr. Hyde is a Daredevil bad guy so that'd be cool to see, Crusher Creel is in both shows, and the casting of Karla Gideon. There's so many ways to connect it.
I'm not saying they're not connecting the shows, I'm just saying I doubt you're going to see Charlie Cox showing up as Daredevil on AoS. Also, we don't know Creel is in both, they only released a promo image that may indicate that (yet the actor hasn't been listed in any cast lists). Who is Karla Gideon? And Sif returning has nothing to do with Daredevil as far as I know, so how is that being "tied in"?
Neither did Agent Carter, didn't stop them.
Agent Carter was the mid-season replacement for AoS airing on the same network in the same time slot. They're blatantly associated shows, with Agent Carter serving as a prequel show that leads to the formation of SHIELD, which plays a HUGE role on AoS.
Not at all the same situation as Daredevil. Notice also that there haven't been any promos released for DD that have aired on ABC, nor will there be. Not the same thing at all.
Like I said, I'm not opposed to the idea, I just don't see it happening.
If DD is going to show up anywhere after his first season (and cameos in the other Netflix shows and eventually Defenders), it'll likely be in his own film, co-produced with Netflix (who are trying to also break into the original films market). A theatrical Daredevil film as part of the MCU and produced by both studios could be done to allow Netflix exclusive airing of the film on NF for a few months after its theatrical run and before it's released on DVD/Bluray.
It's something that benefits Marvel through, again, bringing a popular character to film (after what will likely be a successful TV series debut on Netflix) and helps cheapen production costs for MS by sharing those costs with Netflix (and it would likely be one of their cheaper movies to produce since it won't involve copious CGI or special effects) but not having to give up creative control, while allowing Netflix to share in the profits of the theatrical run as well as benefit from a several month window of exclusive airing on the Netflix service.
Daredevil showing up on AoS? Just don't see it happening, at least not this season.
