The universe of Spider-Man characters at Sony Pictures is struggling. After the announced failure of Kraven The Hunter, the firm officially has no more projects on the program for the next few years. The license formerly called SPUMC is not at the heart of the studio’s priorities, which prefers to put its energy into the returns of Tom Holland’s Spider-Man and Miles Morales. It must be said that these two proposals, in live action and in animation, are the only ones to have received unanimous support from the worshipers of the character imagined by Steve Ditko and Stan Lee. For the first, a fourth part would be in development. It would once again be a question of including the hero in the Marvel cinematographic universe, of having him evolve with the Avengers owned by Kevin Feige. The second should continue his solo journey until a final confrontation with Miguel O’Hara.
If the release of the film by Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers and Justin Thompson has long been promised in 2024, Sony Pictures had removed the project from its calendar without specifying what release window was now envisaged. We could hope that the appointment would be made in 2025, so that two years separate the last parts. Spider-Man : Across the Spider-Verse was widely promoted as the first part of a two-film adventure. The adventure is far from over for the teenager and his friends. We will have to be patient. According to information from the very serious Deadlinethe film is significantly behind schedule. Our colleagues explain:
Why is it so long?
When it was released in December 2018, Spider-Man : New Generation has redefined animation with its innovative approach. With its aesthetic using 3D animation and more traditional textures, the film by Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey and Rodney Rothman shook up a sector largely dominated by behemoths, such as Disney, Pixar and Dreamworks. Proof if any were needed that New Generation represents a tipping point for the industry, this style will quickly be imitated by other animation bigwigs. Puss in Boots 2, Ninja Turtles : Teenage Years or even Les Bad Guysthe hybrid aesthetic is attractive… but is also much more demanding.
the creative teams of Ninja Turtles : Teenage Yearsthis process is extremely time-consuming. If the teams of Beyond de Spider-Verse do not start from scratch – they can rely on the characters and textures of previous films – the project is no less colossal. The exploration of different dimensions takes the form of different styles, many of which will still evolve on the big screen. We remember the introduction in watercolor or the exploration of a world inspired by Indian culture. It’s almost several films in one that are being developed, and a significant workload for the animation teams. Light, textures and decorations… There’s plenty to do.
