The Spiderman film rights are owned by Sony, they bought ownership from Marvel, it's why the latest agreement between Sony and Disney made headlines Disney wanted to co finance the next Spiderman movie and split the profit 50/50, Sony said no, but it meant no Spiderman in MCU and no Marvel characters in Spiderman and that didn't suit either party and definitely not the fans, so a new agreement was done where Disney invests 25% of the cost for the same 25% return and Spidey gets to spend time with his MCU friends. its that ownership that made it feasible for Sony to invest in Insomniac for the purpose of supporting the Spiderman franchise.
