Bob Iger recently discussed how the MCU is cutting back on its creative work. He mentioned that fans can look forward to about 2 or 3 movies a year and 2 shows. That’s much less than what was initially planned and what we’re used to.
Right now, there are over 30 MCU projects rumored or confirmed to be in the works. But, as Brad Winderbaum recently mentioned, not all of them will actually get made and released.
Recently, rumors have been circulating, sparked by the scooper and leaker MyTimeToShineHello, suggesting that Donald Glover is being considered for a writing role.
The leaker didn’t specify which project the studio is eyeing Glover for, but he does have ties to Disney and Marvel.
Donald Glover is also someone Marvel is interested in, as a writer!

Bob Iger recently talked about MCU downsizing its creative input. He said that fans can expect roughly 2 or three films a year and 2 shows. Which is significantly less than what was originally planned and what we’re used to seeing.
MCU currently has over 30 projects either rumored or confirmed to be in development. But as Brad Winderbaum recently pointed out, that doesn’t mean that all of them will make it into production and ultimately be released.
Still, the most recent rumors started by scooper & leaker MyTimeToShineHello, point in the direction of Donald Glover being eyed to serve as a writer.

Sam Spade, meet Spider-Man.
IndieWire can confirm that a Spider-Man Noir live-action series is currently in the works at Amazon Prime Video, developed and executive produced by “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse” producers Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. The duo collaborate again with “22 Jump Street” scribe Oren Uziel, who co-developed and also EPs the upcoming series. Variety first reported the news.
Uziel most recently penned “The Lost City,” starring Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum, as well as “John Wick 4,” “Mortal Kombat,” and “The Cloverfield Paradox.”
The upcoming untitled Spider-Man Noir series is set to follow an older, more world-weary superhero in 1930s New York City. The series does not have any tie to Peter Parker and takes place in a separate universe from the Marvel films and animated “Into the Spider-Verse” sequel, “Across the Spider-Verse.” Former Sony boss Amy Pascal is executive producing the Spider-Man Noir series, with Sony Pictures Television...

Donald Glover is set to join Sony Pictures’ universe of Marvel characters, as the star and producer of a movie based on the Spider-Man villain the Hypno-Hustler.
The project is in its earliest stages, with no script or director, but Myles Murphy (the son of Eddie Murphy) is attached to write the screenplay, reports Variety.
The Hypno-Hustler, who first appeared in Marvel comics in 1978, is one of Spider-Man’s more obscure villains, with the ability to hypnotise his victims with his guitar.
By day, he’s known as Antoine Desloin, lead singer of a band called the Mercy Killers – they use their music to rob their audiences.
As is the case with all of Sony’s live-action Marvel movies, Spider-Man himself almost certainly won’t be a part of the project. But Glover’s involvement is noteworthy for Spidey fans, as the actor-musician has been a fan-favourite to play the...

Donald Glover will help bring to life one of the most obscure — and probably the funkiest — villains Spider-Man has ever faced in a new movie centered around the Hypno-Hustler.
Glover is set to star in, and produce, the film, according to The Hollywood Reporter, with Eddie Murphy’s son, Myles Murphy, attached to write the screenplay. Neither a title, nor any plot details were revealed.
The Hypno-Hustler debuted at the height of the disco era — 1978 — in issue #24 of Peter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-Man. Created by writer Bill Mantlo (probably best...

Multi-hyphenate writer-actor-producer-rapper-musician Donald Glover is no stranger to the world of "Spider-Man" — he helped inspire Brian Michael Bendis to create Miles Morales, after all — but I don't think anyone could have predicted this news. The Hollywood Reporter revealed that Glover is attached to produce and star in a "Spider-Man" spin-off for Sony Pictures focused on the obscure and somewhat bizarre comics villain, the Hypno-Hustler.
While the relative randomness of the character means that Glover and writer Myles Murphy will be able to riff on him however they please, it also means that they have an uphill battle in getting fans interested. Then again, Hypno-Hustler was created by Bill Mantlo, the same writer who created Rocket Raccoon, and once upon a time, fans thought a movie starring his furry little behind couldn't work either. In the right hands, obscure characters can be a fun way for creators who otherwise might not...

Donald Glover is digging deep in the Spider-Man comics. The actor and writer will star in and produce a new Sony Pictures film about one of the web-slinger’s lesser-known villains, Hypno-Hustler, a source confirmed to IndieWire.
The movie is being written by Myles Murphy, the son of famed comedian Eddie Murphy. The film will be produced by Sony and set in there universe of Spider-Man-affiliated characters, the one that also includes the two “Venom” films,” “Morbius,” and the upcoming “Kraven the Hunter” and “Madame Web” movies.
Hypno-Hustler, created by writer Bill Mantlo and artist Frank Springer in a 1978 issue of “Peter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-Man,” is a relatively obscure part of the Spider-Man mythos — and a dated product of the ’70s disco craze. The character, whose real name is Antoine Delsoin, led a band called the Mercy Killers and used hypnosis technology in his instruments to commit crimes.

When the time came to cast a new Spidey for The Amazing Spider-Man, fans campaigned for Donald Glover to play the role. Although Andrew Garfield went on to play the character, Glover did eventually enter the Spider-Man universe, voicing Miles Morales in the Ultimate Spider-Man series and appearing in Spider-Man: Homecoming. He’s set to take the lead in a new Spider-Man movie, but it’s definitely not what you expected.
Donald Glover is set to star in a Spider-Man movie for Sony Pictures, which is said to revolve around Hypno-Hustler, a villain who isn’t exactly landing on the top of anyone’s best villain lists. Sources told THR that Donald Glover “sparked to the musical aspect of the character and the fact that he has less Marvel cannon baggage, freeing him to greater interpretations.” This would give Glover the opportunity to do just about anything he wants with the project,...

Donald Glover is attached to produce and star in a new film out of Sony/Marvel’s Spider-Man universe, centered on the villainous Hypno-Hustler, that is in very early development, Deadline can confirm.
Details as to the as-yet-untitled film’s plot are under wraps and a director has not yet been attached. But we hear that the script will be written by Eddie Murphy’s son, Myles Murphy.
One of the lesser known Spider-Man villains, Hypno-Hustler was first introduced in Peter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-Man #24 in 1978. The character created by Bill Mantlo and Frank Springer, otherwise known as Antoine Delsoin, is known for fronting a band called the Mercy Killers and using pieces of hypnotic equipment to rob those at his shows.
Frequently pitched for the role of Spider-Man by diehard fans of the franchise, going back to the Marc Webb-directed 2012 feature The Amazing Spider-Man — which ultimately cast Andrew Garfield...

Donald Glover is finally getting a Spider-Man movie. It’s just not quite what you think.
Glover is attached to star and produce a feature set in Sony Pictures’ Spider-Man universe of Marvel Comics characters, sources tell The Hollywood Reporter.
Myles Murphy, the son of actor and comedian Eddie Murphy, is on board to write the project, which has no title but is said to revolve on the Hypno-Hustler, one of the more obscure Spider-Man villains.
Created by Bill Mantlo, the writer who also created Rocket Racoon, and artist Frank Springer, Hypno-Hustler was very much a product of the disco music scene when he first appeared in Peter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-Man No. 24 in 1978. His real name was Antoine Delsoin, the leader of a band called the Mercy Killers and used hypnosis technology in his instruments on his audience in order to rob them.
