Miles Morales, Meet The Multiverse

After getting a mere taste of what the multiverse had to offer in the first film, “Across the Spider-Verse” looks set to flip the script entirely. Rather than having other Spider-folk like Peter B. Parker, Spider-Ham, Spider-Man Noir, and the other colorful cast of characters invade Miles’ reality, the sequel seems to thrust the young hero and his friend Gwen Stacy into a much wider multiverse than they ever thought possible. While Jake Johnson will return to voice the lovable Peter B., the sequel will pit Miles and Gwen against an even bigger group of stars: Oscar Isaac’s Miguel O’Hara, Issa Rae’s Jessica Drew, and many more.

While “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse” kept itself separate from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which is currently growing its own multiverse, this new trailer for “Across the Spider-Verse” creates an overt connection when Miguel O’Hara says, “Don’t even get me started on Doctor Strange and the little nerd back on Earth-199999.” It seems Spider-Man 2099 is not happy about the multiverse-shattering shenanigans featured in “Spider-Man: No Way Home” and “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.”
