So far, Spider-Man has appeared in five Marvel movies, Captain America: Civil War, Spider-Man: Homecoming, Avengers: Infinity War, Avengers: Endgame, and Spider-Man: Far From Home.
Before that, when Sony originally bought the rights, they had Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield star as the superhero in a series of movies.
Basically, there's been a lot of Spider-goings-on over the past two decades and now Sony and Disney can't reach an agreement that allows them both to reap the profits from the films.
And poor old Tom Holland might be the one dropped from the universe. As well as Spider-Man in general.
Shame.
Understandably, people are less than impressed with the studios' failure to reach a deal.
They've take to Twitter to air their grievances - and to share the hashtag 'SaveSpiderMan.'

Sony have since released a statement regarding the whole debacle, saying that they are "disappointed" not to be working with the Spider-Man franchise.
They added, however, that they hoped things might change in the future.
"Much of today’s news about Spider-Man has mischaracterized recent discussions about Kevin Feige’s involvement in the franchise," they said.
"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."Explore more on these topics:
