It's not.
It's part of Sony's Spider-Man Universe, same as the Venom movies, Morbius, and Madame Web.
The Things Sony Has The Rights To Cinematic Universe is such a weird thing to make.
It doesn't even have Spider-Man in it. There's seemingly no direction or underlying plot to work towards. It doesn't even seem to make any money.
Wtf is it for?
I always thought they were going to lead up to a Sinister Six movie, perhaps with Andrew Garfield.
That was the plan.
Sony suffered a data breach in 2014, and all their emails leaked. In those emails, they were discussing plans to make a Sinister Six movie with Spider-Man having a major role.
Have they avoided doing that just because of the hack?
No, the Sinister Six movie eventually became Spider-Man: No Way Home. The reason they keep making the SSU movies is because they want to have their own billion-dollar grosser all to themselves without sharing the profits with Disney.
