Sony gets its name on the opening credits alongside the all-conquering Marvel, while not having to actually lift a finger to do anything ... I suspect they’ll be happy to take the money and let Marvel Studios do the work. Did Marvel really licence Spiderman to them in perpetuity though?
Wandavision was brilliant by the way, ad has nicely set up future appearances for Monica as well as a new series for Wanda and the ‘real’ Vision who is flying around somewhere ...
Good article here about the history/process.
I didn’t realise that Marvel only get 5% of the Spidey films gross, but own all the merchandise rights.

An email and a not-entirely-sober phone conversation between Tom Holland and Bob Iger at Disney apparently played their part in ensuring Spidey is still a part of the MCU.
A “WandaVision” spinoff starring Kathryn Hahn is in development at Disney Plus from Marvel Studios, Variety has learned exclusively from sources.
Hahn would reprise the role of Agatha Harkness in the series, which is described by sources as a dark comedy, though exact plot details remain under wraps. “WandaVision” head writer Jac Schaeffer would serve as the writer and executive producer on the project. Should the spinoff go forward, it would be the first project Schaeffer has set up with Marvel since she signed an overall deal with them and 20th Television in May.
It feels like they are scraping the bottom of the barrel tbh. I didn't watch Wandavision and think "omg what an amazing character, I wish I could see more of her".
