ICYMI: A senior character animator for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse explains that splitting the film into two gives the ambitious story breathing room. SpiderMan AcrossTheSpiderVerse SpiderManAcrossTheSpiderVerse Sony Marvel
\nWe knew that Sony was going to make a sequel to Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, and in December 2021, we found out that the film they were making was so big that it needed to be split into two films.
At one point, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse had a 'part one' and 'part two' attached, but they eventually dropped the parts and renamed the third movie to Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse. The Direct did an interview with senior character animator Ere Santos, and they went into the movie assuming it was going to be a massive two-and-a-half-hour movie that was going to be 'Endgame-esque.'\n'[We were asking] 'Wait, so this is what a two-and-a-half-hour movie?' This is a really large story that they're telling. And with all the arcs that they wanted to put in, we were just thinking this was going to be an intense, quick, fast-paced, high-energy movie,' Santos said and continued. 'But it would have been good. It would have been like, what they were planning was gonna be like 'Endgame'-esque stuff. Like it was huge. And what they're planning is still huge.'\nSpider-Man and Spider-Gwen in Columbia Pictures and Sony Pictures Animation's SPIDER-MAN: ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE.\nAccording to Santos, the decision to split Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse into two really gives both films the breathing room they need since this is such a massive and ambitious story.\nBut then kind of spreading it out and into two gives it that breathing room we all felt that it really needed to kind of go, 'Okay, what do you what do we need to set up in the second movie? And how can we resolve it in the third movie? Or not?' I don't know. We'll have to see,' explained Santos. 'It was a really ambitious movie, and at the beginning, it was insanely ambitious, versus what it is now. It's still super ambitious, but it was like trying to fit two movies into one essentially. But now things can breathe a little bit more.'\nAgain, Sony could have easily phoned this sequel in, and it probably would have done just fine at the box office, but the fact that they are willing to go the extra mile really speaks volumes. The first one was a labor of love, and everything we hear about Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse makes it sound like it's just as much a labor of love.\nSpider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse: Summary, Cast List, Release Date\nMiles Morales returns for the next chapter of the Oscar®-winning Spider-Verse saga, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.
