FX nabs TV rights to 'Spidey-Man 3'


May 09, 2007 In healthy bidding, FX has nabbed the rights to the film from Sony Pictures Television in a deal that observers said is tied to the movie's final domestic boxoffice tally and could reach $40 million. With additional broadcast runs and a syndication window that would follow "Spider-Man 3's" second cycle on pay cable, the sequel's total TV revenue is expected to be in line with the $60 million-plus fetched by the previous two "Spider-Man" movies. Going aggressively after "Spider-Man 3" fits into FX's strategy to acquire big, broad feature films.
