Hey, this means that we'll get to keep the current Spider-Man set up, right? No more worries of a reboot after the second spidey film?

Nope, Sony owns Spider-Man. He's one of two left for Marvel to get back, the second being Hulk.


And Namor. Dont forget Namor.

Pretty sure Namor was considered a F4 property, which Marvel now has back.


I read it was universal, like hulk

Film

Filmmaker Philip Kaufman had been in discussions with Marvel Studios to develop Namor: Sub-Mariner in 1997,[100] and courted Sam Hamm to write the script in 1999, but the outing never materialized.[101] Saban Entertainment became involved as a producing partner with Marvel, with a script written by Randall Frakes.[102] By 2001 Namor was set up at Universal Pictures,[103] who hired David Self to write a new script the following year. They hoped for filming to begin in 2003 for a mid-2004 release,[104] but development stalled for two years until Chris Columbus entered talks to direct in July 2004[105] and the release date was subsequently moved to 2007.[106] Columbus departed in 2005,[107] and Universal replaced him with Jonathan Mostow in September 2006.[108] In 2012, Marvel CCO Joe Quesada thought Namor's film rights had reverted to Marvel, but in August 2013 it was revealed by Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige that this was not the case, and the rights remained at Universal Pictures.[109] Borys Kit of The Hollywood Reporter stated in May 2014 that Marvel now has the rights for Namor.[110][111] On June 3, 2014, Kit confirmed that Marvel, not Universal now has the Namor film rights.[110] On July 18, 2014, Feige told IGN in an interview that the Namor film rights are not with Universal or Legendary Pictures, but he explained there are a number of contracts and deals that need to be sorted out.[112] In June 2016, on the podcast Fat Man on Batman, Quesada again stated that, to his knowledge, Marvel owned the film rights to Namor.[113]
