Spider-Man: Beyond The Spider-Verse Gets A Disappointing Release Date Update
Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse has received a major release update. Miles Morales’ animated adventures have earned Sony several awards and two movies that fared quite well at the box office. Both films are among the best Spider-Man movies of all time, with Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse being set up to be a multiverse event like no other. The Spider-Verse trilogy finale was initially scheduled for a March 29th, 2024, release. However, the Sony Marvel movie was indefinitely delayed, being taken off the studio’s release schedule. A new update points to that delay lasting longer than expected.
According to Deadline, Sony has no plans to release Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse in 2025. The report mentions how the studio is “taking a lot of tender loving care” when it comes to concluding Miles Morales’ story. So far, there have been few concrete signs related to Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse’s release date. In September, a bombshell report claimed the movie was unlikely to be released before 2027 and that a lot of it had been scrapped for creative reasons. That report was refuted by producer Christopher Miller and composer Daniel Pemberton.
What Spider-Man: Beyond The Spider-Verse’s Release Update Means
Another Year Becomes Likely For The Spider-Verse Finale’s Release
While there might not have been any truth to the report that large portions of Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse had been scrapped for creative reasons, the report could help pinpoint when the movie will be released. Producer Christopher Miller and composer Daniel Pemberton called out its inaccuracy, which means the part about the film being unlikely to release until 2027 is also wrong. That becomes especially interesting in the context of the new Spider-Verse finale update, as the upcoming Sony Marvel movie now has a likely year to arrive.
The reason for that is simple. The new update states that Sony will not release Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse in 2025. With key personnel on the movie discrediting the rumor that it would only be released by 2027 at the earliest, a 2026 release window for Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse becomes likely. Recently, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse’s Miles G. Morales actor Jharrel Jerome spoke to ScreenRant about whether he had already recorded his lines for the threequel. According to the star, he still has not recorded anything for Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, which fits the film’s delayed nature.
Our Take On Spider-Man: Beyond The Spider-Verse’s Release Update
Sony Should Take Its Time With The Movie
Both Spider-Verse movies have advanced the animation medium in innovative ways while also telling some of the best Spider-Man stories we have ever had outside the comics. As such, I’m not that bothered by the reveal that Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse will not come out in 2025. After Sony faced issues with its three Spider-Man-related movies in 2024 — Madame Web, Venom: The Last Dance, and Kraven the Hunter — I’m okay with giving the studio as much time as it needs to make sure that Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse finds the perfect way to ends Miles Morales’ animated story.
