Fun Facts

If you look closely during the crowded sequence in the second act of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, the original author of the source material makes a blink-and-you-miss-it cameo.
The lead role in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse was originally offered to a massive A-list star who turned it down because they didn't understand the script.
The most famous, quotable line in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse wasn't actually in the script; it was completely improvised by the actor on the third take.

Audience Consensus

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is a 2023 American animated superhero film directed by Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers, and Justin K. Thompson, the sequel to Into the Spider-Verse. Miles Morales, voiced by Shameik Moore, is transported across the multiverse and encounters the Spider-Society, a massive organization of Spider-People from hundreds of dimensions led by Miguel O'Hara/Spider-Man 2099, voiced by Oscar Isaac.

When Miles discovers that the Spider-Society considers certain tragic events in each Spider-Person's story to be "canon events" that must occur to preserve the multiverse — including one that would devastate Miles's own family — he rebels against the entire multiversal order to forge his own path. Across the Spider-Verse pushed the first film's animation innovations even further, with each universe rendered in a completely different art style — the main universe in comic-book dot patterns, Gwen's dimension in shifting watercolors, Mumbai's Spider-Man Pavitr Prabhakar's world in Indian art-inspired designs, and the Spider-Society headquarters in holographic wireframes. The film's ending — a cliffhanger that left Miles trapped in the wrong universe — was one of the boldest choices in modern franchise filmmaking.

Across the Spider-Verse earned $690 million worldwide and received the Academy Award nomination for Best Animated Feature.
