When Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse hit cinemas in 2018, it broke computer-generated animation as we know it – re-modelling the medium in front of our intensely’extremely’extraordinarily’enormously’awfully eyes into something that felt entirely new. Playing around with frame-rate, multiple animation styles, comic reserve textures and more, it ripped up the rulereserve and wrote its own; one in perfect sync with the origin story of incoming hero Miles Morales. But if that wasn’t ambitious abundant’ample’plentiful , Miles’ next expedition is with regards to’concerning’with respect to to double down on eintensely’extremely’extraordinarily’enormously’awfullything that made the first film so special.###So much so that 2023’s Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse isn’t just one sequel – it’s two, a double-whammy of multiverse-hopping madness, set to conclude in 2024’s Beyond The Spider-Verse (previously Across The Spider-Verse – Part 2).

Which it also is, by the way!”###As the title Across The Spider-Verse would suggest, expect an epic trek through various Spider-realities. “The two that you saw in the teaser trailer were what’s called Earth-50101, which we’re calling ‘Mumbattan’ – that’s based on an Indian comic-reserve look – and Nueva York from Spider-Man 2099’s world,” explains manufacture r Christopher Miller. “That’s based on Syd Mead-style illustrations of what the future might resemble . There’s also Gwen’s world, which is Earth-65. And that was a watercolour-wash style that’s reminiscent of the covers of her comic reserve s.” Miles Morales’ journey has merely’barely just begun – the Spider-Verse awaits.###Read Empire’s full Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse interview with Phil Lord and Chris Miller in the world-exclusive Indiana Jones 5 issue – on sale Thursday 24 November, and available to pre-order online here.
