Fans eagerly anticipating the third installment of Sony’s acclaimed animated Spider-Man series have faced delays. Initially slated for a March 2024 release, Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse has been postponed due to the Writers Guild of America and SAG-AFTRA strikes. As of mid-2023, the movie’s release date was left undetermined; however, at CinemaCon 2025, Sony Pictures revealed a new date: June 4, 2027.
Promotional Materials and Plot Teases
Alongside the announcement, Sony unveiled five new promotional images featuring Miles Morales (voiced by Shameik Moore). The images depict him in various forms, including both his Spider-Man persona and his alternate-universe identity, The Prowler. The conclusion of Across the Spider-Verse left Miles in a precarious position, having been captured by The Prowler in a dark universe devoid of traditional superheroes, setting the stage for high stakes in the upcoming film.
First Glimpse for CinemaCon Attendees
During CinemaCon, attendees were treated to a brief clip showcasing Miles Morales swinging through a vibrant space alongside familiar figures like Spider-Gwen and Spider-Punk (Hobie Brown). Notably, Miles states, “Everyone keeps telling me how my story is supposed to go. I’m gonna do my own thing,” hinting at a narrative that challenges expectations. At present, this footage is not available online, leaving fans with only the promotional stills as they await the film’s summer 2027 release.
