I hope it's true.
I don't see what's so unbelievable about who they want to focus on in IW. Although I hope they focus on some other characters as well.

Thatt's pretty much what I've been saying when they released the movie release schedule. It just makes sense.

Makes sense to me. I mean he is the center of the Marvel Universe as well as Marvel's merchandising.

Which Marvel universe is he the center of?
I don't think you've been watching the movies or reading the comics lately. In this context lately means the last 15 years.

Um, the Marvel Universe. 616...let's not try and act like spiderman is not marvel's most popular character. Like who is even reading Spider-Gwen? But their are 3 current incarnations of Spiderman right now in the MU, why is that? Because Slott is running the show over there? No, it's popularity. Spiderman is ALL OVER Marvel's merchandising as well. Civil War the film was specifically made to merge Spider-man's merchandising success with the Avengers merchandising success which is all the more reason I couldn't fathom a civil war film being made without spiderman. Merchandising gold mine.

I hate to say that spider man might b the most popular hero
But still think stark is the main dude....
He leads avengers, is the one to actually save the world a few times, gives sheild spider man and everyone else there tech or atleast improves there tech his father is even a key figure in comics and movies and the shows
But overal I'm biased an still don't care for Spider-Man he's a cry baby that's a b level super hero in my eyes and every other avenger would give him the business..... The only reason I feel he ever beat the heros he beat in the comics was because they were Spider-Man comics to begin with
Once again my 2 cents

^^ the movies really catered to Stark being the focal point because he was one of the heroes more grounded in realism. Cap always been that guy in the Avengers. Tony is more of the "cool guy"

No doubt Spidey is the most popular but at the end of the day it is still owned by Sony.
Marvel doesn't have the right to the character so pushing everyone else aside to let him be the center of MCU is only promoting Sonys future solo films with him.
I rather they work on what they've been building all these other characters than making Spidey the focus. I really just want to see Spidey making cameos in Marvel films and let him shine in his own films.
Business-wise, it's smart move by Sony and they might just turn him into a billion dollar franchise but on Marvels side, unless I am getting half the profits they make on Spideys Sony films, I am not going to invest too much into a character where Sony execs still has final say and approval on which direction the character should go.
But that's me, it only really makes sense to make him the center of MCU if he is actually owned by Marvel/Disney and they get to keep every $$$$ they make from him.
Plus I think CW being pretty much Avengers 2.5 will make it a billion even without Spidey.

kind of feels like Bucky was aiming somewhere else and Tony steps in.
The gun is pointed away from Tony

I didn't know center of the universe was interchangeable with most popular character. To me those are not the same things. So you can save your breath on this popularity talk. Last I checked since Avengers Disassembled, the Avengers have been the center of Marvel's universe.
Spidey hasn't been the center of Marvel comics or tv or animation. Probably Marvel merchandise though.
As somebody else already mentioned there has been more Spidey spinoff books in the comics most specifically not Peter Parker not cuz of popularity but cuz Marvel needs to make up for the lack of F4 and X-Men books they no longer publish.
As far as film, Iron Man is by far Marvel's most popular character. That's more than evident.
If that part of the rumor is true this would only be the beginning of Spidey possibly merging his popularity with the MCU brand. The whole thing about Spidey and his popularity is that he did it on his own. He did not need the Avengers. From the 70s to the 90s. He stood on par with X-Men popularity. None of that has translated to the movies though. It's been pretty clear that Marvel has had the films on smash when it comes to success and popularity. MCU didn't need Spidey. SONY needed the MCU.
You forgot Miguel; Spidey 2099

but he pulls the trigger way after tony grabs the gun so he clearly does not care if tony gets shot or was trying to shoot tony in the first place

This is the common sense way to go and business decision unless Disney is going to buy out the American film studio Columbia Pictures out from SONY (or swallow all of SONY itself) and we don't know it.
