THE ADVENTURE CONTINUES IN INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE 2
With the first installment, Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse, setting such a high bar for its sequel, this next chapter in the story of Miles Morales aims to be more ambitious, thrilling, and colorful than its predecessor.
According to Variety, the team has been hard at work utilizing a screenplay by returning writers and producers Phil Lord and Chris Miller alongside David Callaham, who is producing the most recent revealed Marvel Studios’ MCU film, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. Amy Pascal, Avi Arad, and Christina Steinberg will be returning as producers while Alonzo Ruvalcaba will co-produce the film and Peter Ramsey with Aditya Sood as executive producers.

Parker/Spider-Man), Brian Tyree Henry (Jefferson Davis), Lily Tomlin (Aunt May), Luna Lauren Velez (Rio Morales), Zoë Kravitz (Mary Jane Parker), John Mulaney (Peter Porker/Spider-Ham), Kimiko Glenn (Penny Parker), and/or Nicolas Cage (Spider-Man Noir) may return to reprise their roles as their respective characters.
