Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse - 10 Reasons To Be Excited
6. We Might Get More Spider-Verse Films
Marvel Comics
While Into the Spider-Verse is very much a Miles Morales feature, Lord and Miller have hinted that other Spider-Men could be featuring in it as well, in which case, more Spidey-themed animated features could be on the cards.
It's not as though the wall-crawler's short on alternate timelines either. Spider-Gwen, who'll be featuring in the upcoming Marvel Rising: Secret Warriors, has already attained cult status in the years since her initial introduction, with the concept of a world where Gwen Stacy became Spider-Man resonating with fans right across the board from the very get-go.
There are other Spider-Men to explore too, from right across Marvel's library. There's Miguel O'Hara, the Spider-Man of 2099, and there's Spider-Man Noir too, who fights gangsters in prohibition-era New York.
Point being, there's major potential for Spider-Verse to be the next big thing, and if those other Spideys are on Sony's radar, then there could be material for years to come.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
