Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse is facing another delay. The much-awaited third film in the animated Spider-Verse series will now release on June 25, 2027, instead of its original date of June 4, 2027.
Fans were hoping to see Miles Morales back in action sooner. But after many production delays, mostly caused by the 2023 strike, Sony has decided to take a little more time.
This movie will continue the wild multiverse story that began in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and Across the Spider-Verse. Both films were massive hits, with over $1.08 billion made worldwide. The first film even won an Oscar for Best Animated Feature.
Now, all eyes are on Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, as fans wait to see how the story ends.
Why the Delay?
The 2023 Hollywood strikes hit many film productions. This Spider-Man movie was one of them. Because of those delays, the team behind the film needs more time to finish it properly.
According to Deadline, the creators want to make sure the quality is top-notch. The movie is being directed by Bob Persichetti and Justin K. Thompson, with a script by David Callaham, Phil Lord, and Christopher Miller. Lord and Miller are also producing the film with Amy Pascal, Avi Arad, and Jinko Gotoh.
What to Expect
The last movie, Across the Spider-Verse, left fans with a shocking twist. Miles Morales ended up in a different universe. There, he met a darker version of himself—the Prowler.
Beyond the Spider-Verse will start from that moment. Miles is now on the run, and it’s not clear who he can trust. But we know Gwen Stacy and Peter B. Parker will try to help him.
The Spider-Verse movies have always been about big emotions, amazing animation, and powerful stories. This third film promises even more.
A New Film Too
Sony also announced another animated movie called Buds. This one is now planned for March 12, 2027.
So while the Spider-Man release moves back, fans can look forward to more animated content from Sony.
Yes, the wait is long. But fans believe it will be worth it. The Spider-Man multiverse story is one of the most creative superhero journeys ever told. And Miles Morales has become a global icon.
So mark your calendars—June 25, 2027—because Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse is coming. Just not as soon as we hoped.
