Beyond the Spider-Verse: Release Date and Shocking Finale Leaves Fans Reeling

The conclusion of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse has left fans reeling with its unexpected cliffhanger. Continuing the story of Miles Morales from the previous installment, the film delves deeper into the multiverse and introduces the concept of in-universe "canon," which foreshadows a potentially devastating outcome for Miles. Despite his determination to alter the course of events, two surprising plot twists in the film's finale leave Miles stranded in an alternate universe, leaving audiences eagerly anticipating the next installment.

When Does Beyond the Spider-Verse Come Out?

The comparison made by Joaquim Dos Santos between Across the Spider-Verse and The Empire Strikes Back is noteworthy, as both films delve into darker territories and end on a cliffhanger, leaving viewers eagerly anticipating the next installment. The presence of a villainous alternate universe Prowler, the uncertain fate of Miles's father, and Miles's precarious position have all elicited strong reactions from fans on Twitter. While some express impatience at having to wait for the next film to see how the story unfolds, others appreciate the decision to leave the ending open-ended, as a tidier conclusion may have detracted from the film's impact. Check out the various fan reactions below.

For all the Spider-Man fans, the wait is finally over as the next installment of the Spider-Verse franchise, Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, is all set to hit the theaters on March 29, 2024. The previous movie left us hanging, and we were uncertain about Jefferson Davis-Morales's fate as he was about to face The Spot. Saving him could have massive consequences for Earth-1610 and the entire multiverse. Meanwhile, Miles is still held captive by his evil twin from Earth-42, and Spider-Woman, aka Gwen Stacy, leads a team of alternate universe spider heroes to rescue him.

The revelation that Miles Morales is a multiversal anomaly in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, accompanied by the spider that granted him his superpowers coming from Earth-42, offers a captivating plot point for Beyond the Spider-Verse. Spider-Man 2099's Miguel O'Hara suggests that the spider was meant to grant his universe's Peter Parker spider abilities, making Miles' unique status a crucial element of the upcoming film's narrative. With this development, Miles may have a chance to rescue his father without causing the multiverse to crumble. Unlike Avengers: Infinity War's cliffhanger, which took a year to resolve, viewers of Across the Spider-Verse won't have to wait as long to find out what's in store for Miles Morales.
