‘Cabin In The Woods’ Director Drew Goddard To Direct ‘Sinister Six’

Briefly: So it turns out that Drew Goddard is a pretty busy guy.

Back in December, Sony announced plans to release both Venom and Sinister Six spinoffs of The Amazing Spider-Man franchise. A five person team of Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci, Jeff Pinkner, Ed Solomon, and Drew Goddard formed a “brain trust” to continue the Amazing Spider-Man franchise with a consistent tone (and maintain the connections between each film).

Goddard was already set to write the announced Sinister Six spinoff, and as THR has reported, it now looks like he’ll be directing it too.

It’s interesting to see Drew Goddard’s name here, as the talented writer/director was recently tapped to write (and maybe direct) the Daredevil series for Netflix. In any case, it certainly raises my hopes for a film about six villains that haven’t been introduced yet.

Are you down for the spinoff, or would you rather see the main The Amazing Spider-Man series better establish itself first
