When Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse opened to a rapturous reception in cinemas two years ago, we thought there would be virtually no time at all to wait for the third instalment of the acclaimed animated Spidey trilogy.

The initial plan had been for Beyond Spider-Verse to arrive in March 2024 – less than a year after the previous film – but a variety of reasons, including the SAG-AFTRA strikes and other production delays, have combined to leave us still waiting.

The good news is that we do finally have an update to share on the state of the film, although fans expecting to feast their eyes on it in the near future will have to be a little more patient than they might have expected.

Read on for everything you need to know about Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse.

Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse release date

It's now been revealed that Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse will arrive in UK cinemas on Friday 4th June 2027 – some three years after the originally planned date.

Initially, the plan had been for it to arrive within a year of Across the Spider-Verse on 29th March 2024, but that strategy was quick to change after some production delays.

Still, we'd rather the filmmakers take their time on delivering the perfect end to the trilogy than rushing it out as soon as possible. And at least we have now been given our first look at the new film – which you can see below in a post confirming the new release date.

Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse cast

We're expecting most of the main players to be back for Beyond the Spider-Verse, including:

  • Shameik Moore as Miles Morales / Spider-Man
  • Hailee Steinfeld as Gwen Stacy / Spider-Woman
  • Brian Tyree Henry as Jefferson Davis
  • Jason Schwartzman as Dr. Johnathon Ohnn / The Spot
  • Karan Soni as Pavitr Prabhakar / Spider-Man India
  • Luna Lauren Vélez as Rio Morales
  • Shea Whigham as George Stacy

Of course, Shameik Moore will be back as Miles Morales, our friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man. Moore has made it clear that he'd be more than happy for the story to continue beyond the third film though, saying he'd love to play Miles in live-action.

He told Empire: “I feel like everyone knows I would be a great [live-action] Miles Morales."

The actor added: "It just depends on how old they want Miles to be by the time they’re ready to do a live-action movie. That’s the conundrum with whether or not I end up playing him.”
