Update: Confusion over the wording of Feige's quote has spread across the internet, so IGN reached out to Sony for clarification on whether Feige was saying there will likely be a Spider-Man and Venom movie crossover or if he was saying there would likely be another Venom movie. Sony contacted the CinemaBlend writer who interviewed Feige and received clarification that Feige was indeed referring to the likelihood of a Spider-Man and Venom crossover. However, this should not be taken as Sony confirming that the crossover is happening. This is purely a clarification of Feige's original statement.

The original story is below.Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige recently revealed that a Spider-Man/Venom crossover movie is “likely."In an interview with CinemaBlend , when asked if a crossover between the two characters was possible, given the success of both Venom and the MCU’s Spider-Man, Feige said the ball is in Sony’s court, though overall he believes at some point it will likely happen."I think probably it's up to Sony. Sony has both those characters and, has Venom in their world,” said Feige. "I don't know what their plans are for another Venom or if they’re doing that. But it seems likely at some point."How exactly these two characters would meet, or what sort of ramifications it would have for Sony’s and Disney’s respective Marvel universes remains to be seen, though it appears more likely that Spider-Man would appear in a Venom movie and not Venom in the MCU, as Sony holds the rights to both characters.A Venom sequel was confirmed earlier this year with Venom screenwriter Kelly Marcel set to return and Tom Hardy back as Eddie Brock. There are currently a whole lot of Spider-Man spinoffs in development , including the Jared Leto-led Morbius set for a July 31, 2020 release date Kraven the Hunter and many, many more.Earlier this year, Sony teased seven years of planned Marvel movies and TV, and it’s possible mixing Spider-Man and Venom could be in the cards.
