With Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse coming out this week, Sony has begun discussing bringing their largely-successful animated character Miles Morales to the live-action medium.
Speaking with Variety on the red carpet for Across the Spider-Verse, Sony's Amy Pascal confirmed plans of bringing a live-action Miles Morales Spider-Man to the big screen.
“You'll see all of it,” Pascal said to Variety in regard to a live-action Miles Morales Spider-Man movie.
“It's all happening,” she promised.
In addition to that tease, producer Avi Arad confirmed plans for a Spider-Woman live-action film and that it will come out “sooner than you expect.”
“I cannot tell you [when it's coming out] yet, but it's coming,” promised Arad.
Among the many Spider-Man characters in Across the Spider-Verse, we did actually get a Jessica Drew/Spider-Woman (voiced by Issa Rae). Who knows who will play the character in live-action form, but Rae killed it from a voice-acting perspective.
Spider-Man Across the Spider-Verse is the sequel to 2018's Into the Spider-Verse. It pits Miles Morales (Shameik Moore) against a new villain, the Spot (Jason Schwartzman). After being recruited by Gwen Stacy (Hailee Steinfeld) to temporarily join the Spider-Society, Miles butts heads with their leader, Spider-Man 2099 (Oscar Isaac). The film includes a bevy of new Spider-People including Pavitr Prabhakar/Spider-Man India (Karan Soni), Spider-Punk (Daniel Kaluuya), and the aforementioned Spider-Woman. Returning characters from the previous film include Gwen Stacy, Peter B. Parker (Jake Johnson), and Miles' parents Jefferson Davis (Brian Tyree Henry), and Rio Morales (Lauren Vélez).
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will be released on June 2.
