Where to stream every Spider-Man movie in Canada before Spider-Man: No Way Home

Spider-Man: No Way Home, the highly anticipated third MCU Spider-Man movie from Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures, is nearly here.

Releasing exclusively in theatres on December 17th, No Way Home promises to the “Avengers: Endgame” of Spider-Man movies as the world of Tom Holland’s titular hero collides with the multiverse.

After an effort by Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) to make the world forget his secret identity goes wrong, Holland’s Peter finds himself coming face to face with villains from previous Spider-Man films.

Sony and Marvel have so far only officially revealed Alfred Molina’s Doc Ock from Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 2, although the first trailer also points Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin (Spider-Man), Sandman (Thomas Haden Church, Spider-Man 3), The Lizard (Rhys Ifans, The Amazing Spider-Man) and Electro (Jamie Foxx, The Amazing Spider-Man 2). It’s also heavily rumoured that Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield will reprise their roles as Spider-Man from the Sam Raimi trilogy and Marc Webb duology of Spidey films, respectively.

All of that is to say that No Way Home will draw heavily from Spider-Man films beyond Tom Holland’s own Spider-Man: Homecoming and Far From Home. For that reason, you may want to rewatch some (or even all) of those older movies in the lead-up to No Way Home.

Read on for the full list of where you can stream all seven live-action Spider-Man films in Canada. Of course, these movies can also be rented or purchased from digital storefronts like iTunes and Google Play.

So TL;DR — having Amazon Prime Video covers you for all of Tobey Maguire’s films, while Netflix has both of Tom Holland’s. For Andrew Garfield, though, Netflix only covers his first outing, The Amazing Spider-Man, so those interested in the sequel will either have to bear with ads on CTV.ca or just rent it for $3.99 to $4.99 on the likes of iTunes and Google Play.

What else?

Of course, Tom Holland’s Spider-Man also appears in Captain America: Civil War (2016), Avengers: Infinity War (2018) and Avengers: Endgame (2019). If you want to revisit those as well, you can do so on Disney+ — now with support for ‘Enhanced IMAX’ aspect ratio, no less. The three movies can be found under both the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Spider-Verse sections of Disney+.

Meanwhile, Venom (2018), the first in Sony’s growing universe of Spider-Man-related movies, is streaming on Netflix. The sequel, this year’s Venom: Let There Be Carnage, only just hit theatres last month, so it doesn’t yet have a confirmed streaming release date or specific streaming platform(s). And while unrelated to No Way Home, it’s worth mentioning that Sony Pictures Animation’s Oscar-winning Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse can be streamed on Netflix.

Finally, it should be noted that No Way Home‘s long-awaited second trailer will officially release tonight, November 16th. Marvel and Sony are holding a special in-person fan event in Los Angeles to debut the trailer at 5pm PT/8pm ET. Presumably, the trailer will presumably drop online shortly after.

Insomniac reveals Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, coming to PS5 in 2023

Insomniac Games has officially unveiled Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, the PS5 sequel to 2018’s Marvel’s Spider-Man and last year’s Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales.

In a brief trailer, Peter Parker and Miles Morales’ Spider-Men can be seen fighting a few goons, while a Russian narrator talks about hunting them. Given the accent and what he’s saying, it’s safe to say that it’s classic Spider-Man villain Kraven the Hunter.

However, the trailer ends with a tease for Venom, another iconic Spider-Man villain who was set up in the previous games.

Spider-Man 2 is set to release sometime in 2023.

More to come…

Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield over for good

Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield are ”finished”.

The couple were reported to have taken a break from their three-year relationship earlier this month but insiders insist the ‘Birdman’ actress has called time on the romance for good.

A source told Us Weekly magazine: ”[Emma] ended things and moved back to LA. It’s finished. It’s not just a break.”

One reason for the couple’s split is said to be the 31-year-old actor’s dedication to his role as a 17th century Jesuit in ‘Silence’, for which he has lost 40lbs and began shooting in Taiwan in January.

Another source said: ”He’d been in a dark place for months, getting into his role. He wasn’t being the best partner.”

While the 26-year-old actress is said to understand Andrew’s ”work anxieties”, it was previously revealed the pair’s dedication to their respective careers was partly responsible for the problems in their relationship.

A source said recently: ”Emma understands his work anxieties – it’s why she originally pulled out of ‘Cabaret’ last year and only did it this year – but they’re taking a break from seeing each other.

”They’re both a slave to their schedules. This time last year they were privately discussing marriage.”

Andrew Garfield returning to Spider-Man

Andrew Garfield has confirmed he will play Spider-Man again.

The actor and Marc Webb, who directed ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’, will return to the movie franchise next year, with the planned sequel due for release in May 2014.

Doug Belgrad, president of Columbia Pictures, said: "We could not be more confident in the direction we are taking this new Spider-Man storyline.

"And we are tremendously excited to be ramping up production again with Marc at the helm and Andrew continuing on as Peter Parker.’

"We can’t wait to share what we have in store for Peter and Spider-Man with audiences worldwide."

Emma Stone – who is Andrew’s real-life girlfriend – is still in negotiations about returning to her role as Gwen Stacy.

‘Transformers’ and ‘Star Trek’ writers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci are penning the script with Jeff Pinker.

‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ – which was released five years after Sam Raimi’s trilogy of films starring Tobey Maguire as the webslinger – grossed more than $750 million at the global box office.

New Music June 14

Both U2 fans and musical theater aficionados are in for a treat today with the release of the cast album from Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark.

U2 frontman Bono and guitarist The Edge have penned the score for the troubled Broadway musical that has been plagued by delay and disaster. The U2 musicians even feature on two of the album’s 14 tracks, Picture This and Rise Above 1 – the show’s first official single.

Today, the recently reformed super-group, Bad Meets Evil, launch their new album, Hell: The Sequel. Comprised of rap star Eminem and Detroit emcee Royce 5’9, the duo first began performing together in 1998. Releasing only a few recordings together, the rappers each became busy with their respective solo careers and a feud caused them to break ties completely, until the death of a mutual friend brought them back together.

Child performer Jackie Evancho releases her debut album, Dream With Me, today. The eleven-year-old singer made waves with an astounding performance on America’s Got Talent in 2009. The 14-track album includes a mix of cover songs and popular classics.

Also out today: Neil Young releases a retrospective album, Treasure, Ziggy Marley, son of late reggae legend Bob Marley, launches his fourth studio album, Wild and Free, and former Beatle Paul McCartney releases the remastered versions of McCartney and McCartney II.

Spider-Man sings on American Idol tonight

Yesterday (May 24th), U2’s tour manager mentioned that the band’s next stop was the American Idol finale.

After some confusion that the band would be performing on the popular TV talent show, U2 posted an announcement on their website:

“U2 are not performing on American Idol this Wednesday. Bono and Edge will appear alongside Reeve Carney, who plays Peter Parker in Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark which is set to open on Broadway, June 14.”

The grand finale of the 10th season of American Idol airs tonight on the U.S. Fox network.

Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark is a rock musical with music and lyrics by U2’s Bono and The Edge and a book by Julie Taymor, Glen Berger, and Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa.

The ambitious musical includes highly technical stunts, such as actors swinging from ‘webs’ and aerial combat scenes, and has regularly made ??headlines with production cost overruns, and numerous accidents and postponements.

Spider-Man musical delayed again

For the umpteenth time, the official Broadway opening of new musical Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark by U2’s Bono and The Edge has been postponed once again.

One of the most expensive productions on Broadway is currently in previews and, despite bad publicity regarding multiple cast injuries, last week the show has become the highest-grossing musical on Broadway.

According to director, Julie Taymor, the story, music, and technical direction are still being fine-tuned, and in particular, she is in the process of reworking the final act. The official debut has been pushed back from February 7 to March 15.

U2’s Bono and The Edge wrote the music for the show and are still fine-tuning the songs and the theatre’s audio mix. This week, they called upon their old collaborator, producer Steve Lillywhite for his help in producing the original cast recording.

"Dreaming up the show, the scale of it, the flying sequence, the pop-art opera that it is — that was all pure joy," Bono told Billboard in November. "What we didn’t realize was how difficult it is to stage this stuff, both technically and financially."

Delays have plagued the show since it was first announced; last year, cashflow issues suspended production. So far, the show’s official opening has been pushed back five times.

U2 working on three different albums

According to band frontman, Bono, U2 may release not just one or two albums, but that the band is busily working on three discs which could all hit stores next year.

Currently, the quartet is wrapping up their next studio album, Songs of Ascent, which is being produced by hip-hop musician, Danger Mouse, of Gnarls Barkley fame.

Set to be released in early 2011, Bono, said, “We have about 12 songs with him. At the moment that looks like the album we will put out next because it’s just happening so easily.”

In addition, Bono and guitarist, The Edge, are working on their musical, Spiderman of the Rings, which opens on Broadway next month.

For the third disc, Bono revealed that the band would like to launch a dance club album that remixes some of their popular songs from the 1990s including Mysterious Ways. To help make the dance album a success, U2 has reportedly asked Will.i.am and David Guetta to rework some of their songs.

New Spider-Man villain cast

You know you’ve truly arrived when you’re cast as the villain in a big-budget action flick. Welsh actor Rhys Ifans, 43, was confirmed as the webbed crimefighter’s latest nemesis in the next Spider-Man flick.

Although it was rumoured that Philip Seymour Hoffman might play the part, it was finally confirmed that Rhys Ifans (Notting Hill, Good Morning England) was chosen to play the villain in the next film in the franchise Spider-Man. Ifans first came to the spotlight playing the slovenly roommate, Spike, in Notting Hill, where he supposedly prepared for the role by not washing or brushing his teeth.

"We have been very fortunate to attract some of the best actors working today to play the villains in the Spider-Man movies, and it is exciting to see that trend continue with Rhys Ifans. After seeing his performance in our upcoming film ‘Anonymous,’ we’re in awe of his talent and think he’s the perfect choice to take on this role,” said Matt Tolmach, president of Columbia Pictures.
 
The filmmakers prefer to not reveal which character Ifans will be playing in the forthcoming film.
 
It was announced last week that Emma Stone (Superbad, Zombieland) had signed on to play Gwen Stacy, along with Andrew Garfield (The Social Network) who will play Peter Parker, aka Spider-Man. The film retraces the early years of the character as he deals with teenage angst and the emergence of his superpowers.
 
Marc Webb will be directing the 3-D film due in theatres July 3, 2012 in 3D. Production will begin in December.
 
As for Rhys Ifans, his latest role is Xenophilius Lovegood, father of Luna Lovegood and editor of the Quibbler, in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 on November 19.
