A new teaser for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse struggles to keep up with the sheer amount of Spidey variants that will be on display when the animated sequel swings into theaters next month. Released courtesy of the official Twitter account for the movie, this latest look at Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse teases how much the follow-up will expand on the multiversal madness merely teased in its Oscar winning predecessor. Check out the new teaser for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse below.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will be led once again by our main Spider-Man, Shameik Moore as Miles Morales aka Spider-Man, with the likes of Hailee Steinfeld returning as Gwen Stacy aka Spider-Woman alongside Jake Johnson as Peter B. Parker aka Spider-Man. The (many, many) new variants include Oscar Isaac as Miguel O'Hara aka Spider-Man 2099, Issa Rae as Jessica Drew aka Spider-Woman, Daniel Kaluuya as Hobart "Hobie" Brown aka Spider-Punk, and Karan Soni as Pavitr Prabhakar aka Spider-Man India.
And this is without mentioning the likes of Takuya Yamashiro aka Spider-Man from the 1978 Japanese television series, Peter Parker aka Spider-Man from the Marvel Mangaverse, Otto Octavius aka Superior Spider-Man, Earth X Spider-Man, Spider-Therapist, Spider-Cop, Spider-Mechanic, Spider-Cat, Spider-Monkey, Spider-Wolf, and oh so many more.
It has also now been revealed that Brooklyn Nine-Nine star and Saturday Night Live alum Andy Samberg will also be providing the voice of yet another alternate Spider-Man. While his role has yet to be officially confirmed, it is now hotly rumored that the comedian and actor will star as Ben Reilly aka Scarlet Spider, a genetic clone of Peter Parker.
So, whoever your favorite member of the Spider-community happens to be, no matter how obscure, they are likely to appear in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.
