Sony's Spider-Man Universe - Timeline

[Pro Bot]

This is a timeline for Sony's superhero movie franchise based on Spider-Man and his associated characters.

This reality is designated Earth-688B in the Marvel Multiverse.

Placement reasoning:
Venom
Anne Weying is invited to the 2018 annual meeting of the Northen California Law Association at Sacramento, which was on 2017 December 3rd, to talk about what they will plan for 2018.

The Rialto theatre states "Sat, Dec 2* @ 3pm", "Sun, Dec ** @ 3pm" and "***** Sunday January 21, 2018 7PM *****". The Celtic have played a lot of games. In December, they've played the 2nd, the 5th, the 10th, the 13th, the 17th, 20th, 23th, 26th and 30th. Only one game began at 3pm, a Saturday: it's the 22th. I don't think the Rialto would put past dates on their lightboard, so the pursuit in San Francisco can only be on the December 22th.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage, however, establishes that the first film took place a year prior to it. As a result, we can place the beginning in 2018 and the main events in 2019. Andy Serkis stated that Venom: Let There Be Carnage is 18 months after Venom, thus placing it in October - April to be specific.

Morbius
In Venom: Let There Be Carnage, there is an engraving of a vampire and a spider in Cletus' cell. Sony published a video exploring the cell and drew attention to those two, asking the question "does that mean that Spider-Man and Morbius exist in Eddie's world?", thus implying that Michael Morbius has already been turned into a vampire and Cletus has marked a engraving of him as a result.

The covers of the newspapers in The Daily Bugle TikTok videos state it is "New York's Favorite Newspaper since 1932." They also feature broken numerals, but the first video features "LXXXXVII", which is incorrect since you can't write more than three numbers next to each other. Removing one of the X's gives 87, so 1932 + 87 = 2019. Lastly, the issue numbers (162–164) gives the first, second, and third videos as releasing on: June 11, 2019, June 12, 2019, and June 13, 2019, respectively.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage
There is a magazine with the year 2020 on it.

Andy Serkis claims that the main events take place 25 years after the prologue, set in 1996.

Towards the beginning when Eddie is writing his Daily Bugle article, there is a date at the very top of the window that states "10.29.20". October 29, 2020 is when that scene takes place.

The post-credits scene takes place in 2024, as it relates to the timeline of the Marvel Cinematic Universe film Spider-Man: No Way Home.

Please sign this. Maybe something great will come of it, if Sony is smart. https://www.change.org/p/sony-bring...universe-2245d2f9-c8cf-4f24-a2fb-b8525fb24468.
I don't think https://amazingspiderman.fandom.com/wiki/Symbiote would be a massive continuity error if this happened. Nothing explicitly states it's the symbiote.

Edit: Wow, now it's me who doesn't want it connected and would rather they introduce their own Spider-Man. Funny how things change. Also - young and dumb me signing petitions, lol.

Uhhh...I'd rather Venom be retroactively added to the MCU in the future rather than that (dead) universe.

Email says "Case No. 10-27-" (October 27th).
It was sent at 8:14 PM, not 2 days ago or Yesterday, suggesting it has been less than 24 hours since it was sent. Another email has "2018" in it. 6 months later is in May because it seems unlikely it's exactly 6 months so it's probably not April.

That doesn't really explain why it would be May.

Did they mention it being "May" in the film?

 

[Pro Bot]

Fair enough. I just think it would be a nice fix to the "Spider-Man" problem, or just a recast. It seems the MCU is out of the picture, for now, and the Ramiverse doesn't fit (that would be weird even if it could), so the Webbverse is a solution. To be honest, although the movies weren't that great, Andrew was pretty good as Spider-Man. As Peter Parker, maybe not, but in this universe the only thing thats needed is Spider-Man, not Peter Parker, and that was Andrews speciality.

But maybe a recast would be alright. I mean, they really can't do Kraven the Hunter, Black Cat or Silk without Spider-Man, can they? Ok, maybe Black Cat if we're reaching.

Best hope is MCU merger. I don't see that happening. Sony wants it, though. Maybe they'll get their wish?

 

[Pro Bot]

That doesn't really explain why it would be May.

Did they mention it being "May" in the film?

No, but it's likely, since it's a least 6 months, and April for the most part is before 6 months (except for a couple days). If it were april it would have to be extremely late April. May is an assumption based on "6 Months Later". That is, of cause, unless it's almost "6 months later"?

This is rather interesting news.

The Spider-Man Universe Will Soon Be Taking Over Our TVs

Spider-Man, Spider-Man. Does whatever a spider can. Although I'm not sure an actual spider could front a TV show in quite the same way as the comic book hero can.

"I think we aspire to have several shows in a universe that we create that can pollinate between each other, and to [be] working with a partner to make that happen."

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse considered that Venom universe (so the entire SUMC universe) is an alternate universe to Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

Will do you include it?

No. Every Marvel universe is within the same multiverse. This is just as connected to the comic universe.

Oh, I see.

Wrong thread but a question that I had for long time (I've not so much comics, just the very classics so... )

Is it the same for DC, then? Every DC universe is within the same multiverse?

I thought that when they say "Earths", it is for Universe (and not just the planet), but yesterday I saw Crisis Aftermath Ep 1 and they placed Argo like another Earth, so the Argo from Supergirl show is the same Argo for Earth-1 TV shows? Or there is Earth-38 version of Argo, Earth-1 version of Argo...?

Argo is a planet within Earth-38.

No, DC has multiple multiverses. For example, the one from the comics has 52 universes. It also has a different Darkseid, Anti-Monitor, Monitor, Monitors, Crisis, etc.. Movie and TV universes, unlike the Marvel multiverse, are not included on Multiverse mapping, save for Young Justice.
