Could Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Succeed Where Sony's Spider-Man Failed?

gamerant.com:

As the cinematic universe concept continues to gain popularity, new entries are going to attempt to shoulder their way into the already overcrowded market. Every big name from the 20s to the 90s seems poised to put out an ever-expanding film franchise, but not every attempt can hope to succeed.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles brand has a comfortable presence on every major media platform, from cartoons to comics, to video games and beyond. Their appearances on the big screen have been somewhat limited as of late, thanks to some controversial recent entries. Turtle fans shouldn't be waiting too much longer though, because Paramount is preparing to put out a ton of new features.

Of the TMNT projects currently in the works, the big name is Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg's upcoming animated film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem! That film is scheduled for next August, but it's far from the only film of its kind. Paramount is attempting to rebuild the brand after the difficult legacy of Michael Bay's tenure with the franchise. Bay and most of the films' stars were under contract for a trilogy, but no third entry is coming. Instead, Paramount is planning a reboot of the live-action Turtles outings, announcing last year that SNL funnyman Colin Jost and his brother Casey have signed on to write the script. In addition, Paramount also stated that they'd be producing a series of solo movies for some of their most popular villains. Almost nothing is known beyond that, but it does raise some interesting questions.

Those who follow genre film would recognize a similar strategy as the one currently killing Sony's Spider-Man universe, sometimes known as the SSU.
