Another nail has been driven into the coffin of the Sony-Disney Spider-Man deal by Sony Pictures chairman and CEO Tony Vinciquerra.
“For the moment, the door is closed,” Vinciquerra said at Variety‘s Entertainment & Technology summit, as reported by Variety.
That said, Vinciquerra may have implied the door may one day open again when he added that “it’s a long life.”
Despite the split, Vinciquerra said there is “no ill will” between Sony and Marvel/Disney over the end of the Spider-Man deal.
Vinciquerra admitted the fan backlash to the split has made it “an interesting couple of weeks” for Sony.
