The Marvel Cinematic Multiverse

[Neon Ignition]

I'm taking this from Era who have taken this from Reddit so keep your grains of salt in hand as you proceed. These are supposedly the plots of two upcoming Sony MCU films:

Madame Web

->Open Spoiler<-

The film is set 10 years before the events of the original Venom film and Madame Web observes that Mary Parker is going to be murdered by Ezekeil Sims whilst pregnant with that universes Peter Parker. To protect Mary and Peter, she pulls in three Spider-Women from across the Multiverse to protect them.

Venom 3

->Open Spoiler<-

Over a decade later from the above films events and following Eddie and Venom's return to their own universe after the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home, the two are spending time exploring the multiverse via the Venom hivemind seen in the last Venom movie. They discover that in many universes Peter Parker is the one who kills Venom (the film will include a brief part of Spider-Man 3's final battle to demonstrate this).

Venom pushes Eddie to track down their universes Peter Parker and kill him to prevent their deaths but on finding Parker they discover that he's still a child and Eddie won't comply. Over the course of the film Eddie and Venom warm to Parker and end up protecting him from Toxin, the symbiote variant created in Venom 2.

You can almost hear the names Thor: Love and Thunder and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania in the wind as Bob Iger questions whether the MCU needs to have third or fourth entries for single heroes.

Marvel's got everything to prove, for me, with the Skrulls. They were one of those concepts in the comics in which I had less than zero interest.

But admittedly they did it with Guardians, which, again, didn't really do it for me, but the movies were great - so who knows.

Feels odd to be getting the storyline in a series. Feels inconsequential by default for something that should be a fairly major event within the MCU

There's some kind of theory that this was going to be a movie, but they've mid-production course-corrected to a series, possibly because the decision was made mid-pandemic? I'm not sure why that's going around online, presumably there's a reason.

[Neon Ignition]

Possibly given how strong the push for content was back then and scheduling etc. I think I've enjoyed all the series so far but my interest level is definitely waning at the same time.
