Miles Morales' Spider-Verse Films Have An Ending In Sight - And Fans Won't Be Happy

"Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" is finally in theaters, showcasing the beauty of animation while giving audiences one of the best Spidey movies to date. It even perfectly sets up a third movie, with its cliffhanger ending leaving fans wanting more as soon as possible. The good news? There is another "Spider-Verse" movie on the way. The bad? It will be the end of Miles Morales' story.

"It is. It is the end of the Miles Morales trilogy," co-writer/producer Christopher Miller told Entertainment Tonight regarding "Beyond the Spider-Verse." "So, this whole thing is working towards that, but, obviously, as its own complete film, with a beginning, middle, and end. Miles starts in one place and ends in another, and all the characters have an arc in this film, but that's it for us. We're so tired."

While neither Miller nor creative partner Phil Lord initially planned for Miles' story to span three movies, they realized while making "Across the Spider-Verse" that there was more to tell, and it would have to be the middle of a trilogy. "Beyond the Spider-Verse" will wrap up the story they began with 2018's "Into the Spider-Verse," but it won't be the last time audiences see Lord and Miller's name attached to Spider-Man projects.

Spider-Verse spin-offs are coming

One of the best aspects of the "Spider-Verse" franchise is that it puts the spotlight on Spider-people not named Peter Parker, and because of its success, Sony is taking that to the next level with numerous "Spider-Verse" spin-offs.

"We are still producing a 'Silk' show about Cindy Moon and a 'Spider-Man Noir' show," Christopher Miller reiterated to Entertainment Tonight, saying that both will be live-action television shows centering on the fan-favorite Spideys. "They're on hold right now with the Writers Strike, but hopefully, once it's over, we'll get back up and going." Fans will remember Spider-Man Noir from "Into the Spider-Verse," in which he was voiced by Nicholas Cage. Miller played coy when asked if the actor would reprise the role for the live-action series, saying anything could happen with the multiverse.

Sony producers Amy Pascal and Avi Arad also teased that an animated Spider-Woman spin-off is also on the way. The project will focus on Gwen from the "Spider-Verse" films, and the producers told Variety that it's coming sooner than expected. It's unclear whether Miller and Phil Lord will produce the movie, but given their interest in the other spin-offs, they'll likely play some role.
