Happy Spider-Man Day!
They are starting to shoot today on the next Spidey film! I sure hope it's some version of my script they're using. I finished writing the first draft probably a year ago now, I finally got it through to some people affiliated with Marvel near New Years, and I had positive reviews.
Last I heard it was still continuing to circulate and was well received. But I don't know who actually read it and who hasn't. I don't even know if those closest to the film even know this script exists. I sure hope they do, as I know for a fact that Kevin Feige always wants the best story, and as a Spider-Man fan practically my entire life & a writer nearly as long I am certain that if he knew this was an option, he would want to use it.
I'm well into writing the sequel already, and I still haven't heard anything about this one in months now! Hopefully all is well and it's just some stupid legal hoops or something and I'll get the call any day now. I know it was on the 'big boy desks' but worst case it could be buried in a pile of less quality scripts and not yet read.
I will continue my attempts to get through to Marvel in other ways, in case the people that actually need to know it exists still don't. I am confident that this would be the best possible next Spidey film, and everyone who has actually read the script thinks it's great, I just need to make sure that it gets in front of the right people before they end up making something else entirely.
Marvel is well known for going into a movie without a finished script, &/or changing it heavily, even re-shooting, so I'm not too concerned about what's going on right now. A lot of the information seems to line up with what I've written, and if some doesn't it could be cut or amalgamated. Over all it looks like they are certainly intending to do a street level story such as this, so I'm sure even combining scripts would be an option.
So, basically, this epic movie, the first of an even more epic trilogy, of which I have entirely planned out and likely over half completed, needs to get in front of those actually on the front lines of this flick. If anyone knows someone who knows someone in Marvel / Disney or Sony please don't hesitate to reach out! Thanks, take care, have a great day and remember that with great power their must also come great responsibility!
