Perhaps the best example of this is the post credits scene, which features Oscar Isaac’s Miguel O’Hara (a.k.a. Into the Spider-Verse also manages to acknowledge just about every corner of Spider-Man’s influence in popular culture. And the filmmakers clearly approached it with a passion for all things Spider-Man. The film treats Spider-Man lore with a sense of reverence and affection. Into the Spider Verse epitomized the unrealized potential for both Spidey and the Spider-Verse canon as a whole. Spider-Man Loreīetween Into the Spider-Verse, Spider-Man PS4, Avengers: Infinity War, and the Spider-Geddon comic crossover event, 2018 was a great year for Spider-Man. That not only opens up the possibilities for the inevitable sequels, but also for other franchises to explore multiverses of their own.
However, Into the Spider-Verse has finally cracked the code on how to successfully pull it off. There have been a few haphazard attempts at explaining the multiverse on film. The Kingpin’s primary plot revolved around finding alternate worlds where his family survived, and many of those worlds had a Spider-Man or a Spider-Woman of their own. The screenplay for Into The Spider Verse manages to find a neat pathway for executing its ideas. But prior to this film, casual superhero movie fans had yet to experience a clean and concise representation of this idea. The concept of a multiverse is nothing new for comic book fans. A Multiverse of Possibilitiesīefore Into the Spider-Verse, the idea of successfully presenting the multiverse in a coherent and understandable way was seemingly elusive. But the end of the film leaves us with hope that even this version of Peter Parker has a shot at happiness after so many years of loss and tragedy. He’s a middle-aged Spider-Man who lost his way and his family. Moreover, the introduction of the aforementioned older Peter also explores new territory. The idea of making Miles Morales the main character – while also giving an older Peter Parker a new role as Miles’ mentor – feels like a natural progression for both characters. Peter’s death in the first act signals a passing of the baton to the new characters, while also moving Spider-Man’s legacy forward in thematically interesting and diverse ways. The movie assumes that everyone has seen enough of Peter Parker to know his origin story. It should be clear early in the film that Into the Spider-Verse isn’t a traditional Spider-Man story.
