Marvel – Spider-Man: No Way Home back in theaters?

Marvel, not content with regularly breaking the global box office, will bring back Spider-Man: No Way Home to the movies.

Shortly after the great success of Spider-Man: No Way Home and while we wonder if doctor strange 2 can reach a billion at the box office, sacred competitors come to undermine Disney’s hegemony in the middle of the year 2022. Tom Cruise signs his best score in the world with Top Gun: Maverickwhile the mastodon Jurassic World: The World After has just landed in French and American cinemas.

Tough competition that does not seem to scare the giant with the big ears that is allowed to cancel the launch in France of its Avalonia the strange journey, spit in the face of the local media timeline. However, on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the comics character’s existence and the 20th anniversary of the first feature film directed by Sam Raimi, Disney announced via Twitter that Spider-Man: No Way Home was going to make its big comeback to theaters through a long version :

You wanted more Spidey and you’ll get it! Spider-Man: No Way Home The More Fun Stuff Version will hit theaters in the US and Canada on September 2. More countries to be announced soon!”

A date revealed in the company of a short video of the three Spider-Man of the film, Tom Holland, Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire, where the version of Spider-Man Marc Webb offers his fellow web-weavers to put the cover back. The duration of this funniest things version (in French: version with more fun things) has not yet been revealed, but until then, this reassembly is not sold for its great narrative or dramatic contributions, but for the idea of see more of the trio making jokes about their fluids…

In addition to the overtly familiar and (superficially) warm tone of this promotional post, the resurgence of Spider-Man: No Way Home turns out to be a good way for Disney and Sony to make the most of the economic power of cinema in theaters. Note that the feature film should land on American streaming platforms soon, initially Starzplay, which will stream it exclusively for 18 months.

More fan stuff version

Re-release in theaters is a tool like any other to prolong the success of a film, or on the contrary, to save it from total failure (nightmare alley, Morbius). As a reminder, whileavengers endgame had just taken the lead at the global box office in 2019 and had become the richest film in cinema history (excluding inflation), a simple darkroom rerun was enough for the previous holder of the title, the ‘Avatar directed by James Cameron, to return to him.

Speaking ofAvatarthe 2009 feature film will take advantage of the premiere of its sequel in mid-December to land again on the big American screens at the end of next September. Therefore, the movie theater seems to remain a strong mechanism in the big studios, especially in Disney, which continues copiously taking over the box office. Let’s see if this premiere will inflate enough the scores of the film directed by Jon Watts, who only lacks 100 small million dollars to overcome the symbolic bar of 2,000 million billings worldwide.

Fans versus the long version

If this new montage is scheduled for September 2 in American theaters, it is not said that it will one day land on the French big screens. Nevertheless, Thor: love and thunderin fact, he will land in France on July 13 to fill the studio’s cash register with big ears.
