Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse Is Coming to Our Universe
While there’s still no release date, at least we know who’s directing.
The people have spoken, and they have resoundingly said, “We love Spider-Verses!” And don’t worry, guys: Sony is listening and more Spider-Verses are coming your way. Of course, that’s no surprise to anyone who has seen Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, which, No. 1, absolutely rocks, and, No. 2 (no spoilers), ends on quite the cliff-hanger. Imagine if they didn’t have a sequel planned! The multiverse would be in uproar. Here’s what we know so far about Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, including who’s directing the final installment.
Who’s directing the movie?
On December 17, the official X account for the film announced Bob Persichetti and Justin K. Thompson as the directors for Beyond the Spider-Verse. Persichetti co-directed the first Spider-Verse film in 2018, while Thompson co-directed the second film (and technically the first half of Beyond.) “We have had the immense privilege of being part of Miles’ journey from the very beginning, and directing the conclusion to his story is beyond exciting,” the duo shared in a statement shared to Deadline. “The creativity and care poured into every minute of this project has been truly inspiring. We have crafted what we feel is a very satisfying ending, and we can’t wait for fans to experience it – we’re bringing everything we’ve got!”
Is the cast returning for the second half?
While most of the cast details are still under wraps, considering the fact that the movie follows a cliff-hanger ending, it seems likely that everyone from Shameik Moore (Miles) to Hailee Steinfeld (Gwen) to Brian Tyree Henry (Miles’s dad, Jefferson) will be returning. All signs are looking promising for Spider-Versers. And hopefully less promising for Spot.
When does Beyond the Spider-Verse come out?
Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, was recently removed from Sony’s release calendar, which is awful, because we are greedy and impatient when it comes to Miles Morales. There is no release date scheduled at the moment.
