Sony (or more specifically, Columbia) co-produce the films with Marvel. They are also credited as the main production company. So Marvel has a role but the bulk is handled by Sony, including co-production. Even just looking at the credits Sony's in-house team worked on the VFX. It certainly wasn't a case of just handing it over to Marvel.

I mean they also worked on Captain America and Captain America: TWS. Are you gonna say those are Sony films, too?

I'd really like a source on how these were "completely Sony films" as you say, since Cly kinda highlighted how Marvel very much lead the production, so something disproving that would be nice to see.

Fair enough, but the proof is in the producer credits. The film was co-produced by Feige and Pascal. Also look at any Amy Pascal interview on the topic. Like I said the mid-credits scene came from them. I'd recommend Empire's spoiler podcast on Far From Home which has interviews with Watts, Feige and Pascal, it's bits and pieces but has good insight into the input Marvel and Sony had. Not to mention Watts himself - the guy who actually made the film.

Either way you can't deny that Sony financing, distributing, marketing and co-producing a film is a lot more than nothing which was always the point.

Oh, right. I agree Sony didn't do nothing. They did a lot more than nothing. You just tried to counter him by suggesting Sony did it all and Marvel basically just stood by quietly giving suggestions, which isn't true at all, either. Both did their fair share of legwork. I think his main point, even if not presented as fairly as it could have been, is that Marvel put in a lot of work on the production side, and it was ultimately their process that helped make it what it was.
