Introduced with the 2018 animated feature, the Spider-Verse franchise has garnered widespread acclaim for its compelling narrative, well-developed characters, and groundbreaking animation. And the third installment of the Oscar-nominated film, titled Beyond the Spider-Verse, has been among some of the most anticipated films in the superhero genre.
However, recent updates surrounding the movie are not significantly enthusiastic. Amidst the indefinite delay of the highly anticipated film, an industry insider has recently revealed that there is still no concrete release schedule for the film.
Industry Insider Shares Disappointing Update About Beyond the Spider-Verse
Following the release of the second installment in the Spider-Verse franchise, Sony indefinitely delayed the third film following Miles Morales’ multiversal adventures. The studio took the film off of its release schedule amid the 2023 Hollywood strikes.
Originally slated for a March 2024 debut, conflicting reports have emerged regarding the film’s production status. Christopher Miller, along with his fellow writer-producer Phil Lord have shared that the film is under production.
However, recent reports from insider Alex Perez have revealed that the movie still does not have a definitive release schedule. When asked about any concrete updates about the highly anticipated film, the insider told The Cosmic Circus, “As for the Beyond the Spider-Verse question: When it’s ready.”
Miller and Lord had a similar response soon after Sony delayed the movie in 2023. They shared that they are committed to dedicating the necessary time and effort to ensure the quality of the film, which will be released, “when it is ready,” as per Digital Spy.
Considering the recent updates shared by the insider, it appears that Beyond the Spider-Verse made no significant progress, leaving uncertainty looming over the fate of the Spider-Verse threequel amidst the specter of an indefinite delay.

Earlier, Beyond the Spider-Verse star Brian Tyree Henry shared that the third installment in the Spider-Verse franchise is in the works. Henry has voiced Jeff Morales, Miles’ father in the first two movies and is set to return for the upcoming film.
“It’s in the works, it’s coming,” he told Deadline before adding, “It’s in the works, for sure, and that one is even more epic than the last.” Shameik Moore, who voices Miles Morales in the film series, has also offered some positive updates while teasing what fans can expect from the upcoming film.
He told ScreenRant,
Action…you can expect Miles and Gwen. You can expect everything [laughs] you’re expecting the continuation from the second one. You can expect to see The Spot; you can expect some action-packed energy and some dilemmas and problems to solve.
Despite the promising updates from the actors and the makers, the film has no significant release date, leaving fans uncertain about its future. However, Christopher Miller has suggested that the movie will be worth the wait, expressing his desire to give Miles’ story a deeply satisfying conclusion.
