Sony admits it’s lost the memory stick with Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse on

Sony has admitted that it has lost the memory stick containing the full Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse film.

The final film in the acclaimed series was scheduled for release in March 2024 and has been postponed 478 times since then.

“Hands up, we’ve lost the memory stick,” explained Sony exec Stewart James.

“Jeff had it, but he says that he gave it to Kath, but she hasn’t got it and says she’s sure he didn’t give it to her, but gave it to Bob instead but Bob says he’s never even seen it.

“Thing is, we don’t have it. I mean, look, it’s one of the company’s most important releases, so it’s bound to turn up somewhere. These things don’t just disappear, do they?

It was thought that the memory stick had been found just before Halloween.

“Yeah, Jen had got this new winter coat and had been wearing that and then she spilt some wine on it at a party so had to take it into the cleaners and got an old winter coat out and found a thumbstick in a pocket. 

“She was all like ‘I’ve found it, I’ve found it!’ But it just turned out to be Kraven the Hunter. Big Whoop. I mean, we released it, but no one was that bothered.”

Mr James gave a reassurance that the film would be released. 

“Totally! I’ve got everyone checking the bottom of their bags, because those little thumbsticks, I mean, they’re tiny, aren’t they? Then we’ll check down the back of the sofas, vacuum cleaners. I mean, it’s going to turn up.

“If it doesn’t, you know, there’ll probably be another Paddington film coming along so people can just watch that instead.”
