Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has spread its web-wings and is out right now, which obviously means the wait for an inevitable threequel has begun. The game’s director has thankfully dished out some tidbits about the future, pointing to the MCU’s trajectory as a clue. 

This article contains spoilers for Marvel's Spider-Man 2.

When asked about potential plans for Marvel’s Spider-Man 3, in an interview with YouTube channel SkillUp, director Bryan Intihar made comparisons to certain MCU films. “If Spider-Man 1 [was] like our Iron Man, and Spider-Man 2 was like our [Captain America] Civil War… Where logically do we go from there?” Intihar continued to tease that “it could be pretty epic.”

The metaphor is intentionally vague, but it essentially means that the first superhero romp was an introductory story and the second game was a bigger crossover between heroes (Miles and Peter.) But what would be the MCU counterpart for a Spidey threequel? The best guess is probably Infinity War, based on the “epic” tease.

That could potentially mean that Peter and Miles will be swinging up toward the cosmic voids, into the spider-verse, or just to more “epic” territory, whatever that might be. Thanos, however, is presumably off the table since he’s not traditionally a Spidey-centric villain, especially without the Avengers running about.  

As we explained in our guide to Spider-Man 2’s ending, a post-credits scene introduces us to a fellow (maybe-soon-to-be) web-slinger called Cindy Moon, otherwise known as Silk. She normally has connections to the multiverse in the comics, so Insomniac might follow the uber-successful animated films and sling across the spider-verse. That Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart tech is sitting right there, I guess.

Check out what Silk’s introduction could mean for Spider-Man 3.
