The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Marvel is pushing back the release dates of four films in light of the Spider-Man deal.

In the wake of its deal to co-produce Sony’s next “Spider-Man” movie, Disney has delayed the release of four upcoming Marvel superhero movies to make way for it.

Sony and Disney said Monday that they will co-produce the next “Spider-Man” film, marking a new creative direction for the character, which will be released by Sony on July 28, 2017.

Marvel-produced “Thor: Ragnarok” had been scheduled to come out on that date. Disney has delayed its release to Nov. 3, 2017, a date previous reserved for Marvel’s “Black Panther.”

The cascade of delayed Marvel super-hero movies will see “Black Panther” come out July 6, 2018, a date previously set for “Captain Marvel,” which now comes out Nov. 2, 2018. “Inhumans,” which had been set for that November date, is now scheduled for July 12, 2019.

Meanwhile, Sony will no longer release its Spider-Man villain movie “The Sinister Six” in November of 2016 as previously planned, said a person involved in its production. The studio will rethink its approach to the film, which remains in development, in light of the new agreement with Marvel.
