00:00Have you ever stopped to think that Andrew Garfield is the only Spider-Man who never
00:03got his own trilogy?
00:04Tobey Maguire did, Tom Holland did too, and even the Spider-Verse is already heading toward
00:08its third movie.
00:09But why was The Amazing Spider-Man 3 cancelled?
00:11The plan was for Peter Parker to fall into a deep depression and become much more violent
00:15after losing Gwen Stacy.
00:16We would have finally met Mary Jane, played by Shailene Woodley, who even filmed scenes
00:20for the second movie that were ultimately cut.
00:22There was also a controversial idea that Peter would discover a way to bring the dead back
00:25to life.
00:26Yes, seriously, the plan was to revive his father and Gwen.
00:29The movie would have set up the Sinister Six, featuring the Green Goblin, Rhino, and possibly
00:33even Venom in that universe.
00:35So if all these plans existed, why was it cancelled?
00:37Many people think it was just because of the disappointing box office performance of The
00:41Amazing Spider-Man 2, but the situation went deeper than that.
00:44There was reportedly serious behind-the-scenes tension.
00:46Sony Pictures organized a major event in Rio de Janeiro to announce the third film.
00:50Top executives attended, but Andrew Garfield didn't show up.
00:53He claimed he was ill, but Sony executives were reportedly furious about the snub.
00:57With the second film underperforming in the incident involving Garfield, Sony ultimately
01:01accepted Kevin Feige's proposal to bring Spider-Man into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
