Sony’s decisions about their Spider-Man movies without Spider-Man certainly are… something. I suppose after doing movies about Spider-Man villains without Spider-Man existing in that universe*, doing a movie about Spider-Women without it actually being about them is less strange. They’re clearly riding the coat-tails of the animated movies in many ways, which makes it even stranger.
*The pinnacle being the unlikely team-up of villain and dark/anti- hero to fight Spider-Man just because, uh, no reason in particular. In a sense, Spider-Man absolutely exists in this alternate universe they’re setting up, but in negative form. Everything explicitly revolves around a Spider-Man-shaped void, but the characters themselves aren’t conscious of it. I keep half expecting they’ll announce an actual Spider-Man movie set in this universe, where some comic book shenanigans made them forget he existed, and all the characters will be slapping their head when he shows up, because now it all makes sense. Except I don’t think anyone involved at Sony is competent enough to have set it up.
Not going to lie, if it shows up on streaming (that I already subscribe to), I’d watch it, out of perverse curiosity if nothing else.
