Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse Update Reveals Big Change to Marvel Movie

Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse is making a big change from the first two Spider-Verse movies.

Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse is the upcoming animated Marvel superhero movie directed by Bob Persichetti and Justin K. Thompson. Serving as a sequel to Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, the movie currently has a 2027 release date from Sony Pictures.

What is the update on Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse?

Not too much has been revealed about Sony Pictures Animation‘s third Spider-Man at this point in time; however, a recent update reveals that this movie will be making a big change from the first two.

Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, Sony’s Kristine Belson and Damien de Froberville said that, for the first time in the franchise, they’ve brought a live-action DP, Alice Brooks, to direct the camera in a way the franchise hasn’t done before.

Belson said when asked if working on Beyond the Spider-Verse was as “straining” for animators as the reported work conditions of Across the Spider-Verse, “Nobody has to work on a show they don’t want to work on. Even though you’ll hear — whether it’s Spider-Verse or other shows — that people go through these really difficult crunch times, everybody wants to be on the most ambitious and most exciting shows.”

De Froberville added, “We made some changes to the pipeline to, not avoid — because Chris and Phil are always going to iterate late — but to lessen the amount of iteration on the back end. We brought on a live-action DP, Alice Brooks. She’s been directing camera in a way that we hadn’t done on Spider-Verse before. We’re in animation on Spider-Verse now. Because the directors and Chris and Phil have a chance to iterate so much early on while we’re in story, and truly visualize what it’s going look like by the time those sequences flow into the Imageworks pipeline, there’s way less changes.”

Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse is currently expected to be released on June 18, 2027, in the United States.
