Ahead of Kraven the Hunter’s release this week, a new report claims what we already know: Sony’s live action Spider-Verse is dead

Buh-bye now! See ya later! Don’t let the door hit you on the way out!

Kraven the Hunter isn’t even out yet, but a new report has made it pretty clear that Sony is done with its SUMC for now.

The SUMC, or Sony Universe of Marvel Characters, will go down in history for a few reasons, including having a ridiculous name, featuring films about characters that no one really cares about, and wasting a whole ton of money. Kraven the Hunter is still set to be the latest entry in the Spider-Man-less Spider-Verse when it releases this Friday the 13th (seriously? That’s the date you picked?), but a new report from TheWrap essentially confirms that yes, this will be the last attempt from Sony at making a connected universe of Spider-Man related characters.

What you’ll obviously notice here is that the emphasis is being put back on Spider-Man, you know, the character that people actually like, rather than his villains or side characters that people are barely familiar with. After that though? Who knows! But I’m sure it won’t involve Morbius .
