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. This may contribute to why he’s home when Gwen reappears in the teaser. 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. The pair also encounter a very pregnant Jessica Drew - aka Spider-Woman. 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.

Gwen, meanwhile, is the star of the film’s opening minutes according to various accounts of footage screened at CinemaCon and subsequent presentations. 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. Presumably, he is in over his head again. The first half of the preview suggests a few things as well. The actual footage seen in the teaser backs this up, with the second half offering a very stylized take on interdimensional travel. 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 plot of Across the Spider-Verse is still up for debate, but the name, the teaser, and the CinemaCon presentation certainly offer some clues.

So let’s take a look at what we know so far about Spider-Man: Across the Universe. 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. 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.Īcross the Spider-Verse’s teaser turned out to be a pleasant surprise. 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.
