Let this take you over to Beyond the Spider-Verse

There's still no word on when we can expect Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, the indefinitely delayed follow-up to 2023's Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. There's still good news for Spidey fans, though: A new short film set in the Spider-Verse starring Miles Morales hit the web on Wednesday.

Set between the events of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, The Spider Within: A Spider-Verse Story sees Miles struggle with the combined expectations and responsibilities of being a high school student and a superhero with an arachnid theme. Long story short: The pressure starts to get to him, so much so that he's haunted by a shadowy doppelganger of himself. Miles is filled with anxiety and must find a way to overcome this new challenge.

The short was created through Sony's LENS (Leading and Empowering New Storytellers) program and originally premiered at last year's Annecy International Animation Film Festival. Produced in association with the Kevin Love Fund, The Spider Within: A Spider-Verse Story was directed by Jarelle Dampier (Invincible) and written by Khaila Amazan (Curses!).
