While the prospect of Spider-Man leaving the MCU left fans heartbroken recently, it was all redeemed when Sony and Marvel reached a deal.
And it turns out we didn't really have much to worry about in the first place, at least according to Disney and Sony's studio executives.
"The fan base, which is important to all of us, seemed to really respond to what Tom and his folks have done before with our people," Disney's Alan Horn told The Hollywood Reporter.
"They like the fact that the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Kevin Feige were involved [in the two Spider-Man films]. We heard feedback out there that suggested that joining forces once again was probably really a good idea."
Sony's Tom Rothman then appeared to suggest that a deal was never really in doubt when asked about whether the partnership will continue beyond the main trilogy.
"Yes, we have. But I agree with my distinguished colleague. This was a classic win-win-win. A win for Sony, a win for Disney, a win for the fans.
"The only thing I would say is that news cycles and the rhythm of negotiations do not necessarily overlap. And this is, in the words of Shakespeare, a consummation devoutly to be wished. We would have gotten there, and the news got ahead of some things."
Spidey himself, Tom Holland, recently admitted that the uncertainty over the deal was the "most stressful" time of his life.
"Well... maybe the whole Disney/Sony thing when that happened, that was a bit of a stressful week," he said.
"I'm sure there's some contractual obliged thing where I can't say anything about anything, so I'm just going to keep my mouth shut."
Spider-Man: Far From Home is available to pre-order on DVD, Blu-ray and digital download. A third Spider-Man movie starring Tom Holland has a release date of July 16, 2021.
