Sony's The Amazing Spider-Man 2, the lowest-grossing Spider-Man film, will be leaving Netflix on March 1, 2026. The 2014 movie, which starred Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone, received poor reviews and failed to replicate the success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Spider-Man films. After the movie's disappointing performance, Sony canceled plans for spin-offs and sequels, and rebooted the franchise with Tom Holland as the new Spider-Man.
Why it matters
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is considered one of the worst superhero movies ever made, and its failure led to the rebooting of the Spider-Man franchise with a new lead actor. The movie's departure from Netflix marks the end of an era for the Garfield-led Spider-Man films, which were not well-received by critics or audiences.
The details
Released in 2014, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 holds a 51% score on Rotten Tomatoes, with critics criticizing the film for its unfocused narrative and overabundance of characters. The movie, which had a reported budget of up to $293 million, only made $716 million worldwide, making it the lowest-grossing Spider-Man film to date.
- The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will leave Netflix on March 1, 2026.
