The Defenders
Every year the Marvel Cinematic Universe expands by an exponential amount , specially on television as late with three curriculum a yr coming to Netflix and all - fresh series coming to ABC , Freeform , and Hulu . The expansion in both directions , as Marvel Studios also movies to three production per year , is drawing more attention to the issues over the lack of cohesion between Marvel moving-picture show an Marvel TV .
Marvel Studios and Marvel TV operate as entirely separate concern ever since their split last class , which also saw their LA offices split into two in 2015 . Marvel Studios boss and producer Kevin Feige now report directly to Disney and does n’t seem too keen on bring with or for the TV side . This all gets a tad more complicated now that Marvel Studios is now also working with Sony Pictures on Spider - Man projects .
With Spider - Man in New York , where Avengers Tower is , where Doctor Strange now occupy , and where The defender are forming , it ’s becoming nonsensical that these thing do n’t jar . For MCU ’s Spider - Man ( Tom Holland ) serving as an up - and - coming street level Cuban sandwich in Queens however , it ’s getting a little confusing how he does n’t know about the Defenders of Hell ’s Kitchen , the same fashion theAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D.haven’t interacted with them .
Screen Rant ’s Rob Keyes had the chance to visit the set ofSpider - Isle of Man : Homecominglast August in Atlanta and while talking to manufacturer Eric Carroll , asked about the possible action for crossover . The likelihood of any Defenders appearing in the pic do n’t seem mellow in the foreseeable future , and the same can be said for any luck of Spidey come along on Netflix , but he gave understanding to believe they could be note later on .
Is there a good sense that Spidey knows about Daredevil or Luke Cage ?
Eric Carroll : Not specifically reference in this movie , no . I opine that ’s something we all think would be really fun and it ’s definitely a card I would have a go at it to see play , if not sooner rather than afterwards . But as of now , it ’s not cite in this movie .
And he ’s in Queens , so it ’s like so far out .
Eric Carroll : It ’s so far . [ Laughs ] It ’s like two trains .
Carroll ’s tone is much more affirmative than those of his Marvel age bracket , who seem to flout at the mention of Marvel TV . So far , fans have been able-bodied to impart in some semblance of disbelief as to why Tony Stark would raise Spider - Man or else of someone like Luke Cage forCivil War , but as the outcome of the Netflix shows get bigger , the less plausible it would be for the Avengers to overlook all the other superhero level threats arise .
disregardless of how positive Carroll may be here , it is still exonerated that fans should n’t carry for Daredevil or Iron Fist to be mention inHomecoming(orAvengersmovies for that affair ) . Marvel telecasting boss Jeph Loeb has discuss before that true crossovers may not be plausibledue to the means these dissimilar program are develop , but the ability to at least namedrop any of the Defenders rather of specifically referencing a particular case is much well-off . After all , Kevin Feige has say before the existent hold up isfinding the perfect timefor the crossing , and sees theacknowledgement of these shows as something that is inevitable .
If this is something that is being discourse at this stagecoach , it will be something that will make many fans happy when / if it unfold . Knowing that these in high spirits profile heroes know about the street level characters will further decriminalize these shows , but also come at small disbursal to the movies . Now , how all of this works with Sony , Marvel Studios , and Marvel Television ( and now , Fox and FX as well who Marvel idiot box is work with forX - Mentelevision serial publication ) all get to care about continuity , that is unknown , but it does n’t go like it is too big of a reach for something like this to happen soon , such as the sequel toHomecoming .
