‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 2’ Starts Production
By George Robbins
The very much anticipated sequel to the 2018 hit animated film ‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 2’ has been on people’s minds since the first film released. The ending of the first film suggested that we could actually end up seeing a sequel to the film, but it wasn’t decided upon until late 2019 that there would actually be one. The production for the movie would be similar to the production of the first film, so whenever it started, we knew it would take awhile to finish. So with that in mind, it would appear as though the sequel to the critically-acclaimed film has started its long production process as of now. It is still a long time off before we actually get to see a release for the film, but this is a huge step forward considering everything currently going on in the world.
With the coronavirus pandemic currently affecting the world there was no telling when the actual production would begin for the movie. Luckily, many businesses are finding ways to get back to work even if it isn’t at full capacity for a little while longer. There is a lot of work to be done if the first movie is anything to go off of and it is likely that due to the state of world affairs that there will probably be some issues that crop up during production. The first film was a visual marvel that played out like an actual comic book and it took a long time and a lot of hard work to develop the film into the masterpiece we ended up with. Hopefully we will not see any delays hit the film and eventually we will get another incredible film to watch.
The first film did something that we haven’t had the chance to see in another Spider-Man film up to that point, and that is seeing someone else be the titular web-slinger. ‘Into the Spider-Verse’ gives the role of the main character to Miles Morales who takes up the mantle in the Ultimate Spider-Man universe. The plot of the film revolves primarily around Miles as he learns what it means to be Spider-Man and he learns to reign in his powers that he had thrust on him. He isn’t alone in his adventure as he is joined by a number of Spider-People from other universes that do their best to teach him in order to save his home city. There is no telling what the plot of the second film will be, but it will be worth seeing considering how the film played out.
‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 2’ will end up being a film that will no doubt have crowds of people lining up to watch it considering how well the first film did. While no where in sight, the release date for the film has been set for October 7th, 2022 and hopefully it will end up keeping that date. The first film managed to get a release set a little less than a week earlier than its original release date, but considering the difficulty involved in getting it done right now, there is no telling if the film will release on time. There is a lot going on in the world right now, and it is impressive that they are managing to work on the film at all right now. With this, we could end up seeing other films similar to it starting up production as well and when things start getting back to normal, we might just end up with a lot of content to keep us busy.
