I just saw it as an easy way for everyone to move on from contract obligations. No commitment to keeping a Sony and Disney partnership. No commitment to keeping any of the actors. I don't think we'll see another Tom Holland spider man. I don't think we'll see another MCU spider man.
Disney would be in-fucking-sane to let go of an MCU Spidey. It would be like having X-men without Professor X, or removing some other staple hero. Spidey is far and away one of the most valuable singular heroes in the Marvel Universe, alongside Iron Man, Cap, and perhaps Wolverine, and each of those only truly became MASSIVELY popular after the movies. Spidey was already a juggernaut before that, in the comics world, and the Maguire movies.
No way do we not get another MCU spidey, whether it’s Holland or not.
Except that Disney doesn't control Spiderman, Sony does.
Disney will probably make do without Spiderman, especially now as it can tap into the movie rights that Fox had.
