The untitled sequel to Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is an upcoming American computer-animated superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character Miles Morales / Spider-Man, produced by Columbia Pictures and Sony Pictures Animation in association with Marvel Entertainment. To be distributed by Sony Pictures Releasing, it will be set in a shared multiverse of alternate universes called the "Spider-Verse". The film is being directed by Joaquim Dos Santos from a screenplay by David Callaham, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. Shameik Moore voices Morales, starring alongside Hailee Steinfeld.

Sony began developing a sequel to Into the Spider-Verse before that film's release in 2018, with Dos Santos and Callaham attached, and was set to focus on the relationship between Morales and Steinfeld's Gwen Stacy / Spider-Woman. The film was officially announced in November 2019, and animation work began in June 2020.

The film is scheduled to be released in the United States on October 7, 2022, delayed from an initial April 2022 date due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A female-focused spin-off film is also in development.

Production

Development

By the end of November 2018, ahead of the release of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse the next month, Sony Pictures Animation had begun development on a sequel to the film,[3] due to the "incredible buzz" surrounding the project.[4] The sequel was set to continue the story of Shameik Moore's Miles Morales / Spider-Man,[1][2] working from "seeds [that were] planted" throughout the first film.[3] Joaquim Dos Santos and David Callaham were set to direct and write the film, respectively, with Amy Pascal returning from the first film as producer. The other producers of the first film—Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, Avi Arad, and Christina Steinberg—were all also expected to return for the sequel in some capacity.[3] The next month, Pascal revealed that the film would focus on Morales and Hailee Steinfeld's Gwen Stacy / Spider-Gwen, exploring a romance between the two characters that had been cut from the first film. She added that the sequel would serve as a "launching pad" for a previously announced female-focused spin-off film starring Steinfeld.[2]

Sony officially confirmed the sequel in November 2019, setting a release date of April 8, 2022. Lord and Miller were confirmed to be returning as producers.[5] Lord indicated that the film would include the "Japanese Spider-Man" from the 1978 Spider-Man series.[6] Sony shifted the film's release date to October 7, 2022, when making changes to its film schedule in April 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[7] In February 2021, Miller revealed that he and Lord were working on the film's screenplay with Callaham and said Peter Ramsey would serve as an executive producer for the sequel after co-directing the first film.[8]

Casting

By December 2018, Shameik Moore and Hailee Steinfeld were set to reprise their respective roles as Miles Morales and Gwen Stacy from the first film.[2]

Animation and design

Lord revealed that design work for new characters in the film had begun by November 2019,[6] with comic book artist Kris Anka later revealing that he was serving as a character designer on the film.[9][10] On June 9, 2020, the film's lead animator Nick Kondo announced that production had started.[11]

Music

Daniel Pemberton confirmed in December 2020 that he would compose the sequel's score after also doing so for the first film.[12]

Marketing

In May 2020, Sony entered into a promotional partnership with Hyundai Motor Company to showcase their new models and technologies in the film.[13]

Release

The film is scheduled to be released in the United States on October 7, 2022.[7] It was originally set for release on April 8, 2022,[5] but was shifted to the October 2022 date due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[7]

Spin-off

Sony began developing a Spider-Women film in November 2018, to be focused on three generations of female, Spider-related characters. Bek Smith was set to write the spin-off,[1] and Lauren Montgomery was in talks to direct.[3] Pascal revealed the next month that the film would focus on the characters Gwen Stacy / Spider-Gwen, Cindy Moon / Silk, and Jessica Drew / Spider-Woman, and that the Into the Spider-Verse sequel would serve as a "launching pad" for the spin-off.[2]
