Sony Pictures Animation is developing a sequel and an all-female spin-off film to the upcoming Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Sony has hired Avatar: The Last Airbender TV/DC video 'toon veteran Joaquim Dos Santos to direct the follow-up, which has its plot details naturally shrouded in mystery for now but will be hinted at in the first film. David Callaham (The Expendables, Wonder Woman 1984) is writing the film. The script will be written by Bek Smith, who wrote episodes of the CBS series Zoo. Nothing's been confirmed yet, but THR suggests Madame Web (former overseer of the web of life and destiny that guides and binds all spider-based heroes together); Spider-Woman (presumably Jessica Drew, although technically Gwen goes by the moniker in her reality too); Spider-Girl (who again could be multiple comics characters, from Mayday Parker in the MC2 universe to Anya Corazon, the current holder of the mantle); and Cindy Moon, a.k.a.
Amy Pascal is producing the sequel and spin-offs, and Lord and Miller are expected to also return in a creative capacity.
The Spider-Verse is about to get a little big bigger.
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse doesn't open in theaters until the middle of next month, but a few critics have already seen the movie and they've started tweeting their thoughts. The film features the voice talents of Shameik Moore as Miles Morales, Hailee Steinfeld as Gwen Stacy/Spider-Gwen, Mahershala Ali as Miles' uncle Aaron Davis/Prowler, Jake Johnson as Peter Parker/Spider-Man, Liev Schreiber as crime lord Wilson Fisk/Kingpin, Brian Tyree Henry as Miles' father and police officer Jefferson Davis, Luna Lauren Velez as Myles' mother Rio Morales, and Lily Tomlin as Peter's aunt Mary Parker. Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey, and Rodney Rothman directed Spider-Verse, with a story from the minds of The LEGO Movie's Phil Lord and Chris Miller.
Swinging into theaters on December 14, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is produced by Columbia Pictures and Sony Pictures Animation in association with Marvel.
