I assume he had to offer something to them. Like extra advertising for the Uncharted movie, maybe a percentage of his salary

"SCOOP – 10/9/19: Disney wants to buy Spider-Man."
While rumors have circulated before the Sony-Disney dispute of such a purchase, it was mere speculation, especially the erroneous high number that was quoted. What I’m hearing is that Disney is looking to offer in the range of $4 to $5 billion for Spider-Man. But now the questions will be asked. Who's Got the Deepest Pockets?
“Marvel’s most well-known hero, and with Iron Man and Captain America gone, they need an anchor in the MCU.”

Back when the 'split' was announced I stated this was a well thought out move from Sony to get Disney to make an offer. Guess time will tell.

Disney only paid 4.24 billion for all of Marvel. That’s a lot for the film rights to one character (and the rest of the spidey-verse.

Yes, but that was pretty much the deal of a lifetime for them. There is no way they could have predicted that the Marvel movies were going to be as successful as they turned out to be. So if they need to throw around some money to help complete the circle I could see them doing so.
And it's not like they won't earn that money back, it would just be a matter of how many years would it take.

The MCU's Spider-Man 3 will reportedly start filming this summer, shooting in locations that include Iceland, which may hint at the movie's villain. Tom Holland's Peter Parker aka Spider-Man joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe in 2016 and has since become a key superhero of the franchise. Not only has he appeared in three team-up movies, he's lead two solo films of his own - Spider-Man: Homecoming and Spider-Man: Far From Home. Last summer, a new deal was reached between Marvel and Sony and Spider-Man will remain in the MCU for one more solo movie, Spider-Man 3, and another team-up film.
Little is known about the MCU's Spider-Man 3, though it has a release date in July 2021. Homecoming and Far From Home director Jon Watts will return in addition to Holland. Co-stars Jacob Batalon and Zendaya, who play Ned Leeds and Michelle 'MJ' Jones respectively, are also expected to return, but haven't been confirmed just yet. It's expected that the third film will follow on from the Spider-Man: Far From Home post-credits scenes, which featured J. Jonah Jameson (J.K. Simmons), revealing Peter's secret identity and reporting that Spidey murdered Mysterio. Now, with a year and a half until the movie's set to hit theaters, pre-production is ramping up on the next Spider-Man movie.
Today, ComicBook reports the MCU's Spider-Man 3 will start filming in July and conclude in November, with the production heading to Atlanta, Georgia; New York, New York; Los Angeles, California and Iceland. ComicBook further notes this won't be the first MCU movie to film in Iceland, as Thor: The Dark World previously shot some scenes in the country. The publication also posits the Iceland location could be a hint that Kraven the Hunter will be the villain of the film.
Atlanta and New York locations don't come as a surprise for Spider-Man 3, since Far From Home filmed in both locales. In fact, the Far From Home post-credits scene was filmed in New York City, and it's where Peter Parker lives in the MCU, so it makes sense for the follow-up to film there as well. Iceland is the most interesting filming location, and does seem to indicate Peter Parker will be traveling outside the United States once again. Perhaps Peter travels to this location as part of a plot in the Spider-Man movie that includes Kraven the Hunter. The Marvel villain is a big game hunter and one of Spider-Man's comic book foes.
After the Far From Home post-credits scenes outed Peter Parker's identity as Spider-Man, fans have speculated that Spider-Man 3 would include Kraven and/or feature some kind of adaptation of the "Kraven's Last Hunt" storyline. In fact, Watts even supported the idea of Kraven the Hunter in Spider-Man 3, though it's unclear whether the director has any real plans for the villain.
While the Iceland filming location may tease Kraven the Hunter's inclusion, it could be related to a different villain or storyline. With filming set to start this summer, it shouldn't be too long before casting gets underway and more will be revealed from set photos that are bound to surface once production begins. So fans excited for Spidey's next outing can look forward to more Spider-Man 3 updates in the coming months.

Looking forward to the third installment. Even more looking forward to the fact that it appears to be a stand-alone film and not just part 5 of a 27 part saga universe.

I’m not sure how filming in Iceland is supposed to be a hint that big game hunter Kraven is the villain. I suppose he is Russian, and they could make him Icelandic easily enough.

Wow this is crazy. Reporting Foxx is coming back as Electro: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/he...ctro-exclusive

Interesting. I wonder if it will just be like JJJ where the same actor is playing, but a different iteration. Or they are doing some Spider-verse stuff.

That’s some really odd news. He didn’t particularly stand out in the role or anything where I’d think he needed to be brought back. Unless we’re getting some Spider-Verse elements brought in.

I didn’t hate it as much as most at the time admittedly. Still weird to go back to Jamie Foxx as Electro though.
If it’s Spider-Verse I would think either Dafoe or Molina would be the guys to go for in terms of villains to bring back. They’re older, but use some of the de-aging technology possibly. They’re easily the two most memorable Spider-Man villains of past films.

Perhaps there's a warehouse full of unsold giant Jamie Foxx-Electro-head DVD/Blu-ray busts that they want to clear out . . .
