Everyone is losing their minds over Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. This summer has opened on a banger note with Across the Spider-Verse. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse has opened with $150 million at the worldwide box office, $80 million of it coming from the domestic market. Into the Spider-Verse started this new revolution in the animation genre and its sequel is putting extremely strong strides forward. Given the overwhelmingly positive response that the sequel has received, it sets up a strong base for the threequel of this franchise reportedly called as Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse. In response to the audience’s love the producer of the film has given us a positive update about the threequel.
Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse Can Get Even Crazier!
While speaking with ComicBook.com, Across the Spider-Verse producer Peter Ramsey talked about the future of the franchise, “If there’s one thing anyone’s learned from these movies, the sky really is the limit… It’s imagination and there’s hundreds of people that bring their imagination to the table and nothing can stop that.”
In a separate interview Across the Spider-Verse co-director Justin K, Thompson commented on the next step for Miles Morales, “I mean, look, that’s, we’ve all been on that journey too… I’ve been at the end of the line where I’m like, I don’t know what the next step is for me. I will say animation saved my life. I was at a point in my life where I was like, I don’t know what’s going to happen next… And it was animation that sort of came in and swept me off my feet and provided for me. So I think that relatability again is something we can impose on Miles and wonder what is he going to do? What’s the thing that’s going to save Miles?”
Executive Producer Chris Miller also told Collider that the franchise might head into more live-action content, “I will say that what’s special about [‘Across the Spider-Verse’] is the fact that we can represent worlds in unique styles, and every world looks like a different artists’ hand, and the animation style, and everything about it, is unique and bespoke for each world that it goes into, and so that could be anything. But if the movie itself was in live-action, then you wouldn’t be able to take advantage of all of that. That said, all things are possible in the Multiverse.”
When asked the title of Beyond the Spider-Verse suggests that the film might reaching into the live-action realm, Miller had a particulary vague response, “Right. It means a lot of things, but it also means we see a sort of map representation of the known Spider-Verse, but there are things that can exist outside of that web of life and destiny, if you will.”
The sequel stars Oscar Isaac, Shameik Moore, Hailee Steinfeld, Jake Johnson and Issa Rae in prominent roles. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will releasing in theatres on 2nd June 2023.
