She suggested that it could be a limited series and that it had the potential to be released on Disney+.

In March 2017, it was reported that Sony Pictures was developing a Black Cat and Silver Sable-centered film with writer Christopher Yost.{{cite news|title='Spider-Man' Spinoff: 'Thor' Writer Tackling Silver Sable, Black Cat Movie (Exclusive)|url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/spider-man-spinoff-thor-writer-tackling-silver-sable-black-cat-movie-988065|access-date=January 20, 2019|website=The Hollywood Reporter|date=March 22, 2017 | last=Kit | first=Boris}} It was intended to be a part of a shared universe called the Sony's Spider-Man Universe, which is centered on characters from the Spider-Man mythology and began with the live-action Venom in 2018.{{cite news|title=Sony's Venom Is In 'Same Reality' As MCU|url=https://screenrant.com/sony-venom-movie-mcu-connections/|access-date=January 20, 2019|website=Screen Rant|date=June 29, 2017 | last=Dumaraog | first=Ana}} The film was to be more adult-oriented and though it would have taken place in the same reality as the Marvel Cinematic Universe, they would have not crossed over with each other. In May 2017, it was announced that Gina Prince-Bythewood would direct the film, now titled Silver & Black.{{cite news|title='Spider-Man' Spinoff: Silver Sable, Black Cat Movie Finds Director with 'Secret Life of Bees' Filmmaker (Exclusive)|url=http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/spider-man-spinoff-silver-sable-black-cat-movie-finds-director-secret-life-bees-filmmaker-1007556|access-date=January 20, 2019|website=The Hollywood Reporter|date=May 25, 2017| last=Kit | first=Boris}} Production was to begin in March 2018, but the film was later delayed "indefinitely". Prince-Bythewood revealed that the cause of the delay was due to script issues.{{cite web|url=https://screenrant.com/silver-sable-black-cat-production-delay/|title=Silver & Black's Production Delayed Indefinitely|website=Screen Rant|last=Hood|first=Cooper|date=February 23, 2018|access-date=February 23, 2018}} While the film was initially scheduled to be released on February 8, 2019, Sony removed the release date from the schedule.{{cite web|url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/silver-black-no-longer-has-a-release-date-1116361|title=Sony Pulls Spider-Man Spinoff 'Silver & Black' from Calendar|website=The Hollywood Reporter|last=Couch|first=Aaron|date=June 1, 2018|access-date=June 1, 2018}} In August 2018, Sony announced that Silver & Black was canceled in favor of having both characters appear in their own feature films. Black Cat was reportedly a re-worked version of the Silver & Black script while the studio was searching for screenwriters for Silver Sable. Prince-Bythewood will serve as a producer on both projects.{{cite web|url=https://screenrant.com/sony-silver-black-update-silver-sable-black-cat-solo-movies/|title=Sony Scrapping Silver & Black In Favor of Silver Sable & Black Cat Solo Movies|website=Screen Rant|last=Freeman|first=Molly|date=August 9, 2018|access-date=August 9, 2018}} As of April 2020, the film is now believed to be cancelled in favor of the proposed live-action television series (see above).{{cite web|url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/love-basketball-gina-prince-bythewood-wanting-make-a-black-harry-met-sally-1291248|title='Love & Basketball' at 20: Gina Prince-Bythewood on Wanting to Make a Black 'When Harry Met Sally'|last=Davids|first=Brian|work=The Hollywood Reporter|date=April 21, 2020|access-date=May 25, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200422170436/https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/love-basketball-gina-prince-bythewood-wanting-make-a-black-harry-met-sally-1291248|archive-date=April 22, 2020|url-status=live}}
