15 other Spider-Verse characters who deserve their own movie

This month, Madame Web arrives in theaters, giving the Sony Pictures Spider-Man-adjacent fictional universe yet another crew of characters to add to a growing arsenal that includes Venom, Morbius, and the upcoming debut of Kraven the Hunter. It’s no secret that Sony has been interested in building these characters out into movies for quite some time now, and Madame Web proves that the movie studio is interested in slightly more obscure characters as well as megastars like Venom. With that in mind, we’ve got some ideas when it comes to the characters they should tap next. Setting aside the upcoming films we already know about, here are 15 characters (or teams of characters) ready to lead their own live-action Spider-Man spinoff adventure.

Black Cat (Felicia Hardy)

Black Cat, at this point, feels like the Always a Bridesmaid of the Spider-Man movie world. She’s appeared in live-action films twice, played by Bryce Dallas Howard and Felicity Jones in two different universes, but she’s never gotten the chance to shine in costume as Marvel Comics’ resident sexy antihero thief. She’s even gotten her own movie in development, only to then have it turn into a potential team-up movie before getting seemingly canceled altogether. That’s all a shame, because there’s a lot to mine with Black Cat. She’s a versatile, interesting, dynamic character even before you factor in her superhuman ability to manipulate the luck of those around her, and in the right hands she could shine with her own film.
