Miles Morales will swing on to the Playstation 5 in Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales a new adventure from Insomniac Games. The game is the follow up to the best-selling and award-winning Marvel’s Spider-Man which came out for the Playstation 4. Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales will be released during the holidays in 2020. Check out the […]
That trailer for the Miles Morales animated movie got me thinking about what I would’ve done had I, via some bizarre time-travelling shenanigans, been in charge of the MCU once they got the rights to Spider-Man back.
Instead of retroactively making the ASM movies part of the MCU, an idea I know was floated… I’d have made the original Sam Raimi movies part of the MCU and then bring Miles Morales in, with Tobey Maguire’s Peter as his mentor. The first MCU Spidey movie would’ve been about MaguirePeter, now in his forties and married to Mary Jane, passing down his mantle to Miles.
Convoluted? Sure! But I bet I could have made it work. You know, if I had had access to aforementioned time travel
Some Raimi Spider-Man headcanons that no-one asked for:
Peter is autistic, and has selective mutism (that bit in the first movie where he just smiles at MJ instead of answering her made me think of this: I hope it’s accurate)
Harry is bisexual: he hides it well. His feelings about Peter have always been deeply confusing and contradictory.
Ursula and her father are Jewish (Mageina Tovah is, after all.)
Gwen is openly bisexual
Flash Thompson later got in touch with Peter and MJ and apologised for his behaviour in high school, which is why he can be seen in the background at Harry’s funeral.
MJ and Gwen sought each other out after the events of Spider-Man 3 and became friends. (Well, that’s semi-canon anyway I guess, the novelisation has them hugging at the funeral)
Gwen has three younger brothers, because that’s a bit of canon from ASM that I really like. (It always weirded me out that there were so many only children in the Spiderverse)
That little boy who is impressed at Peter’s car stunt is this universe’s Miles Morales.
May knows her nephew’s secret identity because she’s essentially his mother. Robbie knows too, because he’s much, much less self-obsessed and cynical than Jonah and quickly worked it out. Ursula also knows, because she lives next door to Peter after all and has witnessed his suspicious comings and goings. All three have sworn to themselves to never, ever tell anyone.
These are some other shots from the first shoot for the Cinematic Miles Morales Cosplay. I just felt that I should share them with you guys.
Keep your eyes peeled for the NYC shoot and well as other projects that involve cameras. The next shoot one will show more of Miles’ special abilities and hopefully recreations of some the comic book covers as if they were live action. (Yes some of these are screenshots) This is fun and I hope you guys enjoy!
