Spider-Man Fans Are Devastated & Distraught Over Across The Spider-Verse"s Surprising Ending

Warning! This article contains SPOILERS for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse ends on a cliffhanger that has left Spider-Man fans distraught. Seamlessly continuing Miles Morales’s story from 2018’s Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, Across the Spider-Verse further explores the multiverse, introducing the concept of in-universe “canon,” which, in Miles’s case, all but mandates a tragic loss. Miles resolves to defy a predetermined event, but two last-minute plot twists in the Across the Spider-Verse ending leave him stranded in the wrong universe.
Across the Spider-Verse co-director Joaquim Dos Santos has notably compared the film to The Empire Strikes Back, with both films taking their respective heroes into deeper and darker territory in addition to ending on a cliffhanger. Miles’s precarious position, the uncertain fate of his father, and the surprise appearance of a villainous alternate universe Prowler have led to strong fan reactions on Twitter. Some lament having to wait for the next installment to see how Miles and his father may survive, while others feel that a longer version of Across the Spider-Verse with a tidier ending would have felt rushed. See the fan various reactions below.
When Does Beyond the Spider-Verse Come Out? Spider-Man fans aching to see Across the Spider-Verse’s cliffhanger resolved are in luck, as the next installment, Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse is set to be released on March 29, 2024. Across the Spider-Verse leaves Jefferson Davis-Morales’s fate uncertain, as he appears destined to die at the hands of The Spot, yet saving him might wreak havoc on Earth-1610 and the multiverse writ large. Miles himself remains a captive of his villainous Earth-42 doppelgänger, while Gwen Stacy (Spider-Woman) leads a team of alternate universe spider heroes to rescue Miles.
Along with Across the Spider-Verse’s cliffhanger is the fascinating revelation that Miles Morales himself is a multiversal anomaly. The spider that gave Miles his superpowers comes from Earth-42, with Miguel O’Hara (Spider-Man 2099) suggesting it was supposed to grant its universe’s Peter Parker spider abilities. This will likely be a major factor in Beyond the Spider-Verse’s plot, perhaps allowing Miles to rescue his father without causing the multiverse to collapse.
This is not the first time that a major Marvel film has ended on a cliffhanger. The MCU’s Avengers: Infinity War concluded with Thanos wiping out half of all life in the universe, though viewers only had to wait a year for Avengers: Endgame to resolve this shocking ending. Despite its devastating cliffhanger, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse viewers will not have to wait as long to see what happens to Miles Morales in Beyond the Spider-Verse.
