Spider-Man Universe Collides in Epic Spider-Verse Fan Art with Miles Morales

Summary

Fans are eager for a crossover between the live-action and animated Spider-Verse franchises, with hopes that upcoming films will feature more live-action presence.

Miles Morales has been confirmed to exist in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but his live-action version has not made an appearance yet.

Sony Pictures intends to produce a live-action Miles Morales movie, but updates may be postponed due to the recent SAG-AFTRA strike. It is not clear if the movie will be included in the MCU or if it will be a standalone film.

New Spider-Verse fan art envisions a collaboration between Miles Morales and the three live-action versions of Spider-Man. Over the past few years, Spider-Man has had significant achievements in both live-action and animation. In 2021, Spider-Man: No Way Home brought Tom Holland, Tobey Maguire, and Andrew Garfield together for an epic Phase 4 event. This year, Miles returned as Spider-Man in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, which became a major success in 2023 and even included live-action cameos from Garfield and Maguire.

As the Spider-Verse movies continue to blur the lines between animation and live-action, fans are becoming increasingly hopeful for a proper crossover between the franchises. There is an ongoing theory that the upcoming film Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse will feature even more live-action elements, despite its current lack of a release date.

Even though Miles is known to exist in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, his live-action portrayal is yet to make an appearance. To provide a visual representation of how the animated version of Miles would appear alongside the Peter Parkers, Art of Time Travel unveiled fresh fan art of the potential crossover. The artwork showcases all four heroes poised and prepared to confront any impending danger.

Will Miles Morales Ever Get Adapted Into Live-Action?

The upcoming film, Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, marks the culmination of Miles' captivating journey, bringing his trilogy to a satisfying conclusion. With this conclusion, it naturally raises the question of whether we will witness Miles' long-awaited live-action debut following the completion of his animated franchise. It appears that Sony Pictures has indeed envisioned plans for Miles to step into the realm of live-action, whether that be within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) or Sony's own Spider-Man Universe.

Amy Pascal, a longtime contributor to the Spider-Man franchise, disclosed in a May interview that a live-action film centered around Miles Morales is currently being developed. However, due to the SAG-AFTRA strike, there have been no recent updates on its progress. Nonetheless, the fact that Sony is actively working on a Miles Morales film indicates their continued interest in utilizing the character even after Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse.

When the Miles Morales movie moves forward, it will be intriguing to see whether Sony integrates it into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) or keeps it as a standalone venture. Logically, having Miles join the MCU and potentially replace Tom Holland's Spider-Man in the future would be a natural choice. However, in the interim, Miles' future Spider-Man escapades will remain in the realm of animation, regardless of what lies ahead.
