Initially, Spider-Man films faced availability issues on major streaming services due to complex rights management. While the live-action film ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ was unavailable on Netflix in most territories, it could be accessed via Disney+, Sony-affiliated services, or digital rental platforms. The animated ‘Spider-Verse’ films were also absent from Disney+ because Sony Pictures retains theatrical and home-entertainment rights, necessitating new agreements for future Disney+ additions.

Subsequently, ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ experienced a resurgence on streaming platforms. The film reached the No. 6 spot on Netflix’s U.S. movie chart, outperforming titles like ‘Black Adam’, and also performed well on Disney+. This renewed interest was linked to the theatrical success of Tom Holland’s latest installment and anticipation for ‘Brand New Day’.
