It might just be possible to script a film that has Spidey already a few years into the superhero biz, and it could still be interesting.

Hollywood movie studios and risk mix like oil and water. Sadly, to do a decent superhero movie requires a big budget, so indie producers aren’t able to shoot a riskier film.

Which, as a result, is why the MCU is starting to get stale. When every director Marvel brings on has to follow the path of least resistance, for fear that a single bomb could derail the gravy train, you’re going to start to get cookie-cutter films. I think the fans are really only willing to follow things through to Infinity War. After that, Marvel will have to come up with something new or its going to get seriously savaged by the fans.
