Sony Pictures, who own the rights to comic book character Spider-Man, have made a statement about the split with Disney which will see the webslinger no longer involved in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The company said they were "disappointed" last night by Disney's demand for a greater stake in the Spider-Man films and its proposal to reduce the involvement of Marvel president Kevin Feige in the franchise.

“Much of today’s news about Spider-Man has mischaracterised recent discussions about Kevin Feige’s involvement in the franchise,” said the statement.

“We are disappointed, but respect Disney’s decision not to have him continue as a lead producer of our next live action Spider-Man film.

“We hope this might change in the future, but understand that the many new responsibilities that Disney has given him – including all their newly added Marvel properties – do not allow time for him to work on IP they do not own," they added.

“Kevin is terrific and we are grateful for his help and guidance and appreciate the path he has helped put us on, which we will continue.”

Negotiations had been underway for numerous months between Sony and Disney over Spider-Man's future, after Disney's purchase of Marvel in 2009 for $4 billion heightened box-office dominance.

Disney had been demanding that future movies be financed evenly between the two studios, with Feige as the consultant producer.

Feige has been aligned with the Avengers series since Iron Man was released in 2008, and has been mostly credited with satisfying the franchise’s hardcore fans alongside Disney’s desire for awards and critical recognition.

Avengers: Endgame overtook Avatar last month as the highest grossing film of all time, and Black Panther became the first superhero film to win a Best Picture nomination at the Oscars last year.

Spider-Man: Far From Home, deposed Skyfall as Sony’s biggest film ever at the global box office only this week, with two more films starring Tom Holland supposedly in the works.

Major character plot holes will no doubt be the result of Sony's split with Disney, after Far From Home set up the next major Avengers storyline. Tom Holland fans are in mourning over the news, with the actor playing arguably the most popular Spidey to date.

Following the announcement yesterday that Tobey Maguire is splitting from his wife of 12 years, Jennifer Meyers, it now appears that he's partying like a madman.

And he's not alone, either. Tobey is hitting up the nightclubs with his buddy Leonardo DiCaprio and has been spotted with Lionel Richie's 18-year-old daughter Sofia.

"It looks like Leo's rubbed off on him," a source told Page Six.

"He's just going to the clubs with Leo and he's been seen with and without him… [Tobey's] turned up more often than usual."

TMZ has also reported that Tobey's split has been on the cards for a while now and he actually separated from his wife in June.

Pictures then surfaced today of him with Sofia Richie in a club in Hollywood from earlier this month in 1 OAK, but TMZ insiders say "it's not what you think."

To be honest, those pictures are very blurry, but insiders say the pictures are just of them having a friendly chat.

Tobey Maguire has called it quits with his wife of nine years.

Tobey married jewellery designer Jennifer Meyer in 2007 and they have two children, Ruby, 9, and Otis, 7, together.

The couple told People: "After much soul searching and consideration we have made the decision to separate as a couple.

"As devoted parents, our first priority remains raising our children together with enduring live, respect and friendship."

The statement doesn't mention if they're divorcing, and it's still unclear if either party have filed legal papers yet.
