Sony was ambitious quite ambitious when they announced that their future plans included not only releasing the sequel to Spider Man 3 and 4 but the Sinister Six and Venom but it looks like the lukewarm success of The Amazing Spider Man 2 might hold up their release schedule plans. According to a report from Ain't it cool news, The Amazing Spider Man 3 will be pushed back from an originally rumored July 2016 to an undetermined date in 2017. While Sony hasn't released a specific reason as to why this is the case, a lot of speculation is due largely to the fact that the Amazing Spider Man series has not been able to match or surpass the domestic growth of the previous Spider Man films directed by Sam Rami. The movie was far from a failure, raking in over half a billion in ticket sales with its early release over seas but it's still the lowest grossing Spider Man film to date. We'll just have to wait and see what this means for the rest of the films planned for the series and whether or not the other films will see a similar delay.
