Have Spider-Man canonically fought The Vulture (and other villains) in the cancelled movies
Hey guys, I’ve been thinking about this lately. In the comics, Spidey has fought The Vulture dozens of times, but what about the movie universes where sequels got cancelled? In Raimi’s Spider-Man 4, John Malkovich was cast as Adrian Toomes/The Vulture with concept art and wings already in the works. It got scrapped — so did Peter canonically fight him in that timeline, or did it never happen because the movie wasn’t made?
Same with The Amazing Spider-Man 3. Plans had Vulture, Rhino, Kraven, Mysterio, and others as part of a big Sinister Six story, but it was cancelled for the MCU. In Andrew Garfield’s universe, did those fights actually occur off-screen? Does “cancelled” automatically mean the battles never happened, or do you headcanon that Spider-Man still took them down? Curious what everyone thinks — especially if there’s any official word from Raimi or Webb on this or if they’ve never fought them at all.
