Was it still? Maybe the deal had a time limit that ran out and needed to be dealt anew?

I mean, I don't see any good reason why Disney and Sony would be happy with a deal and then suddenly nothing anymore?

Of course, greed is a valid counterpoint. But before really condemning either side, I want to be sure to know the full story.

Yes, it was and is.... for another 2 movies (I believe).
This is Disney going back on the words or contract (or possibly related to future films after these 2).


"I mean, I don't see any good reason why Disney and Sony would be happy with a deal and then suddenly nothing anymore?"

Greed is a good motive..... Disney saw Sony makeing $1.1bn on their last Spiderman movie and their like "we want half of the next movie you do", if we help you with the director + MCU appearences of Spiderman.

It all just boils down to greed.
Disney is makeing money hand over fist, they really dont have to screw over sony, to make a quick buck.
Plus the relationship right now, as benefiting everyone.

Its just greed, by disney.

No, the deal is over. The deal was for five MCU-connected films, which he has now been in - Civil War, Homecoming, Infinity War, Endgame and Far From Home. The deal was always set to be renegotiated after Far From Home. That doesn't mean Disney couldn't have reeled in their greed a bit and keep this lucrative partnership going, but they're doing a power play since they feel they can do whatever they want. If not for Venom's surprisingly high box office yield, Sony probably would have caved too, honestly.
