As December 17 approaches, the release date of Spider-Man: No Way Home where the chaos of the Marvel Cinematic Universe multiverse will be unleashed, Sony studios have surprised fans with a teaser trailer for the sequel to the dazzling animated 2018 film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, titled Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse.
But this is not the only intriguing part of this Spidey-heavy season as the trailer revealed that the film, due for release in 2022, is only the first in a two-part project.
The film picks up a while after the end of Into The Spider-Verse, and sees Miles Morales the new Spider-Man (Shameik Moore) rejoined by Gwen Stacey aka Spider-Gwen (Hailee Steinfeld) jumping into a cross-dimensional adventure through the Spider-verse. An intriguing addition to the Spider-canon is Spider-Man 2099, voiced by Oscar Isaac, who might be this film’s main antagonist to Morales’ masked hero.
A new dimension will be traveled by Miles and Gwen, a seemingly purely 2-D animated one. A coaster of new Spider-People, and perhaps old fan-favorites like Spider-Man Noir and Spider-Ham, to face-off with the upcoming villain.
Industry veterans and Spider-Verse producers Phil Lord and Chris Miller revealed that their decision to make it a two-parter stems from the epic scale of the story: “Miles' story is an epic. We wrote what we thought the story needed to be, and to our surprise we realized it was two movies instead of one. We're working on them both as we speak. Part Two will be out sometime in 2023. We will sleep again in 2024."
Directorial duties have fallen on Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers, and Justin K. Thompson while Lord and Miller wrote the script with Dave Callaham.
