The superhero animation Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse has had a release date set for 2027, its production team confirmed at CinemaCon.
Producer Phil Lord and co-directors Bob Persichetti and Justin K Thompson made the announcement at the cinema convention in Las Vegas on March 31st, saying that: “We know how important this franchise is to so many people around us. We just could not run it back,” as reported by Variety.
Justifying their reasons for the sizeable gaps between instalments – the first film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse was released in 2018 and its follow up, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse came in 2023 – the creators said: “We decided we needed to take the time to make sure we got it just right.”
Lord promised, however, that the third chapter is “going to be a massive finale to the trilogy.”
Sharing the first glimpse of the trailer during their appearance, the film’s producer explained that main character Miles Morales has been exiled from the multiverse as a fugitive, noting, “Gwen and his other friends may or may not be enough to help him save the family that’s been the leading part of the entire system.”
The teaser shown at the convention has not yet been released publicly, but Lord told the audience: “We are prepping this movie especially for your large format screens,” before adding, “It looks insane.”
The previous instalments of the animated Spider-Man spinoff were massive global box office successes, with the first film scooping the Oscar for ‘Best Animated Feature’.
Elsewhere in the Spider-Man universe, Tom Holland is set to return in the live action version of the superhero series with the confirmed release of Spiderman: Brand New Day announced for 2026, also at the convention.
Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse will be released on June 4th, 2027.
