Everything We Know About Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse
In a weekend filled with comic conventions, odd announcements about Daredevil, and a late appearance by The Matrix Resurrections , a surprise trailer took the Internet by storm in early December 2021: the first look at Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse . Granted, there was some warning on from producer Christopher Miller, but it still proved to be a gift in a month already filled with geeky presents like the other Spider-Man movie – the live action Spider-Man: No Way Home .

In a weekend filled with comic conventions, odd announcements about Daredevil, and a late appearance by The Matrix Resurrections , a surprise trailer took the Internet by storm in early December 2021: the first look at Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse . Granted, there was some warning on from producer Christopher Miller, but it still proved to be a gift in a month already filled with geeky presents like the other Spider-Man movie – the live action Spider-Man: No Way Home . Across the Spider-Verse’s teaser turned out to be a pleasant surprise. For one thing, it finally offered a title for a film previously known only as “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 2.” Of course, no film gets produced in a vacuum, and there are plenty of other things we know about the project already, especially as Sony further clarified some things across various other presentation in 2022. So let’s take a look at what we know so far about Spider-Man: Across the Universe. [Updated 4/4/23] Across The Story (Photo by Marvel Entertainment)
The plot of Across the Spider-Verse is still up for debate, but the name, the teaser, and the CinemaCon presentation certainly offer some clues. For one, it’s clear Miles Morales (voiced by Shameik Moore) will be going on an adventure to other realities instead of the problem dropping into his dimension — six realities to be exact, per Miller and his producer partner Phil Lord during the presentation. The actual footage seen in the teaser backs this up, with the second half offering a very stylized take on interdimensional travel.
The first half of the preview suggests a few things as well. For one: Miles is grounded. Presumably, he is in over his head again. We’re going to guess the problem occurred at school since Miles tells Gwen (Hailee Steinfeld) that his dorm at Visions Academy is much cooler than his childhood room. Gwen, meanwhile, is the star of the film’s opening minutes according to various accounts of footage screened at CinemaCon and subsequent presentations. She is seen battling the Vulture in her home dimension (Earth-65), but soon encounters Spider-Man 2099 (Oscar Isaac), who tells her the Vulture’s chaos came about because she left a portal between universes open after the events of Into the Spider-Verse. The pair also encounter a very pregnant Jessica Drew — aka Spider-Woman. (Photo by Sony Pictures)
Reports also say Miles will be re-introduced in the sequel during a meeting of his parents with his guidance counselor that does not go well — something we see in the April trailer. This may contribute to why he’s home when Gwen reappears in the teaser. She soon convinces him to go out and about as Spider-Man, but his reticence to do so may be based in that scene with the counselor. No matter the issues in Miles’ life, Gwen takes him to a place where other Spider-Men from different universes gather — the concept of Spider-Man 2099.
There, he will reunite with Peter B. Parker and meet the likes Spider-Woman and Supaidaman (aka Japanese Spider-Man). The latter character is based on the late 1970s Spider-Man television series from Japan. In that program, a man named Takuya Yamashiro acquires spider-like powers, a costume, and a transforming robot from an alien. Yamashiro’s mission: defeat Professor Monster and the evil Iron Cross Army. The character is said to be part of the film and we can’t wait to see how all of its out-there ideas get conformed to Spider-Verse proportions. Considering the references to Spider-Man: No Way Home in the April trailer, it’s easy to imagine the jokes arising from the curious case of the Japanese Spider-Man.
But as the trailer also reveals, Spider-Man 2099 has little interest in seeing Miles join his league of Spider-folk. The issue: he always choses the needs of the few over the many. And it seems this will bring Mi...
