With so many Spider-Man projects being released both left and right, some from Marvel Studios and some directly from Sony, it’s been a great time to be a fan. It seems like every kind of take on the source material you can imagine is worth making nowadays, thanks to the Multiverse concept, and all sorts of characters are being given the theatrical treatment. Of course, fans can thank the animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse for having really brought the brand and the Multiverse concept back into high gear. And with that said, fans are excited for the upcoming Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse sequel – the first look at which has finally been revealed, as well as a title in Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse (Part One).
The first look at the film was previously teased by co-director Kemp Powers, who teased the following on Twitter yesterday.
