'Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse' sequel announced, eyeing a 2022 release
The success of Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse has established Miles Morales, the new Spidey on the block, in a solid way, despite the raging fan fever surrounding Tom Holland, Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man portrayals. Peter Parker is done-to-death storyline, so Morales looks like the way forward. And now, a Twitter update about the sequel of the animated movie has revived the hype.
Long wait! The sequel will release on October 7, 2022
The official Twitter page of the franchise gave Spider-Man fans a big gift on January 1 by posting two images showing the superhero in what seems like a lit underground tunnel. The caption read: "One year closer to 2022." This means, the movie will release on October 7, 2022, which honestly is a long wait for ardent followers, because 2021 has just started!
