Summary
- Spider-Man: Beyond The Spider-Verse's release date is currently unannounced, though it was previously set to release in 2024.
- Beyond The Spider-Verse updates revealed production for the movie is well under way.
- Complex animation processes may delay the release, but the final product is expected to be worth the wait for fans.
Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse was promised a long time ago, but I have reason to hope that the Marvel sequel may arrive in 2025. Following 2023 delays that altered its initial debut window, Spider-Man: Beyond The Spider-Verse's release date has been unannounced, though theories have arisen about when to expect it. Following Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse increasing on its predecessor's box office while scoring an incredible 95% with critics and 94% with audiences on Rotten Tomatoes, the quality of Beyond the Spider-Verse is incredibly important, suggesting a long production time may be needed.
The Spider-Verse and the Marvel Multiverse have tended to approach multiversal storytelling differently. While some believe that the MCU has faltered during the Multiverse Saga,
Spider-Man stories have only become more beloved and successful by tying in the wider universe, and multiversal storytelling has become an important component of Spider-Man stories to modern audiences. With rumors of Tom Holland's Spider-Man 4 being a multiversal story, it appears that the extended Spider-Verse may have only just begun - making the prospect of Spider-Man: Beyond The Spider-Verse releasing in the near future all the more tantalizing.
Spider-Man: Beyond The Spider-Verse's Release Update Makes A 2025 Debut Feel Possible The Film Was Originally Scheduled For 2023 Close According to recent Spider-Verse updates,
the third film is deep in production, and Karen Soni will begin voice recording in a few months - which has been interpreted to mean that the main characters may have already finished their own recordings. If this is the case, then it's one that suggests hopeful things for the movie, potentially even teasing that it may release not worlds away from its prior 2024 release window.
Formerly known as Across the Spider-Verse (Part 2), the film was initially planned to be released relatively soon after Across the Spider-Verse.
This suggests that work on the third film has been underway for quite some time. Following this, a more closely impending release date could be possible depending on how much time has been also given to the artists working on the release.
Granted, recording dates are a complex metric to use. Notably, Hailee Steinfeld said to The Hollywood Reporter on the release of Across the Spider-Verse that recording for that film "started right after the first one came out, so about four years ago." Following this pattern would mean that with recording set to start soon, Beyond the Spider-Verse is still several years away. However, these films have evolved throughout production, with some dialogue recorded much later. Animation is already well underway, and the film appears to be coming closer and closer to its release, hopefully even in 2025.

Why A 2025 Release Would Be Perfect For Spider-Man: Beyond The Spider-Verse Audiences Need More Spider-Man And 2025 Is The Ideal Year Close 2025 will be an incredible year for comic book films, with several new properties to be excited about.
Superman will launch the DCU in July, and Marvel hopes to kickstart new, exciting franchises with Thunderbolts*, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, and even Captain America: Brave New World, which sees an entirely different character taking on that titular role. Amidst that slate, everything appears to be a new attempt to create a franchise rather than finish one. Including Beyond the Spider-Verse in that release calendar, as the final film in the trilogy, would be an excellent contrast to this.
Familiarity is important, and audiences have grown to love these iterations of Miles Morales, Gwen Stacy, Peter Parker, and the rest. While a Miles Morales live-action movie is reportedly coming,
this animated take is the version of the character that most audiences are familiar with. The final film in the trilogy promises to be an engaging and familiar conclusion to Miles Morales' story, especially with the teased return of characters like Spider-Man Noir and Spider-Ham at the end of Across the Spider-Verse.

Why Spider-Man: Beyond The Spider-Verse May Still Not Release In 2025 The Complex Animation Of The Spider-Verse Films Takes Time Close I will admit, I am surprised that Beyond the Spider-Verse has been delayed with no date yet provided by the studio. The announcement in 2021 to confirm that Across the Spider-Verse was being split into two films came while the feature was deep into production, with a plan for a gap of one year between the second and third films in the trilogy.
This indicated that both films were being worked on concurrently.
However, this has appeared less and less likely to be the case following significant delays by the studio.
Animation is incredibly time-consuming, and the Spider-Verse films have worked hard to create a distinct and complex visual style for the series. If the films were not being worked on together, then the third film in the trilogy could still be some time away. A 2025 release, especially late in the year, is still possible at this point, but
there was also a 5-year gap between the first and second films in the series. Repeating a gap of that size is not yet out of the question.

Related Beyond The Spider-Verse Could Redeem The Spider-Man Villain Who Became A Joke In 2024 Sony"s upcoming animated Spider-Verse sequel provides the perfect chance for a wasted Spider-Man villain to be redeemed after his reviled 2024 debut.
The final Spider-Verse film has a lot riding on it, and I hope that these delays are a result of taking that pressure seriously.
Following the incredible first two films in the trilogy, the task of making a final installment that lives up to their quality while wrapping up their stories feels nearly impossible.
However, the team behind these films has not given us a reason to doubt them so far. I really hope that
Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse releases in 2025, but if it has to be later to make it great, then it's more than worth the wait. I have faith in the creatives behind this project and await the film eagerly, whenever it releases.
