fan of Marvel ’s nonmigratory web - slinger will go up a paries for these potential association , references , and cameo .
While some have accused theatrical audiences of having “superhero fatigue,”Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Versehas proven that’s certainly not the case.
Outside of the brilliant script and jaw-dropping visuals,Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Versehas also showcased a mountain ofEastereggs, from references to pastSpider-Manvideo games, comic books, animated series, and even theMarvel Cinematic Universeitself.
With this in mind and the film’s highly-anticipated part two,Beyond the Spider-Verse, which is currently scheduled to hit theaters in March 2024, I’ve assembled 21 Easter eggs thatSpider-Manfans hope make an appearance in Miles Morales’s next multiverse-traversing adventure.
1.Insomniac Games' Miles Morales fromSpider-Man: Miles Morales
2.Tom Hardy’s Eddie Brock (aka Venom) fromVenom
3.Topher Grace’s Eddie Brock (aka Venom) fromSpider-Man 3
4.The Lego Movie
5.Aaron Taylor-Johnson’s Sergei Kravinoff fromKraven the Hunter
6.Otoha Okutamiya (aka Octopus Girl)
An passing intriguing aspect of Sony’sSpider - ManUniverse is how they ’re expand the news report through different spiritualist , let in an upcoming Manga spin - off ofAcross the Spider - Versefocusing on Otoha Okutamiya , a Nipponese school - daughter who moonlights as Octopus Girl , her universe ’s variation of Doctor Octopus . With this title flat connect intoAcross the Spider - Verse , it would be a cool tip - of - the - hat to Manga fans if Okutamiya showed boldness ( and mechanical tentacles ) inBeyond the Spider - Verse .
7.Damage Control
8.Peter Parker/Man-Spider fromEdge of Spider-Verse #004
InAcross the Spider - Verse , there are teases to a more grievous side of Miguel O’Hara , but perhaps there ’s no version of Spider - Man as terrifying as the iteration of the case fromEdge of Spider - Verse # 004 , a human beings - wanderer hybrid straight out of your spoilt nightmare . While the chances of Clay McLeod Chapman ’s monstrosity making the grade are slight to none , it would still be awful to see Miles Morales see the creature feature version of the radioactive wanderer canon case unite to so many universes .
9.AMorbiusreference
10.Chris Edgerly’s Spider-Man fromThe Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man
11.Cindy Moon (aka Silk)
curious enough , Cindy Moon ( better known as Silk ) was originally scripted to be part of the crew inInto the Spider - Versebefore being supercede by Peni Parker . Nevertheless , the character looks like a big part of Sony’sSpider - military personnel - related plan in the cheeseparing future tense , so inclose the fibre inBeyond the Spider - Versewould be a stellar launchpad for Silk into the larger soda pop culture knowingness .
12.Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum’s Schmidt and Jenko from the21 Jump Streetfilms
13.Felicia Hardy (aka Black Cat)
14.Hudson Thames’s Peter Parker/Zombie-Fighting Spider-Man fromWhat If…?
A noticeable absence from the legion of Spideys on the hunting for Miles Morales inAcross the Spider - Versewas theMarvel Zombiesversion of Peter Parker , as there was n’t the undead - fighting Spider - Man fromWhat If … ?in vision throughout the film ’s extraordinary runtime . But with the character a canonic part of the MCU and possibly canonic in Sony ’s Spider - Verse , it ’s not impossible for this looping of Spider - Man ( or even an undead opposite number ) to show his impeccably animated face inBeyond the Spider - Verse , even if only for the briefest of moments .
15.Michael Mando’s Mac Gargan (aka The Scorpion) fromSpider-Man: Homecoming
Marvel fans have long lament that the hope of Michael Mando ’s Scorpio has not been capitalized upon in the subsequentSpider - Mansequels , especially after being tease as a big bad inHomecoming ’s post - credits picture . But with the appearance of Donald Glover ’s Prowler serving as a payoff for one lingering plot line in Sony ’s Spider - Verse , there ’s always a chanceBeyond the Spider - Versecan do the same for this underserved scoundrel .
16.Tobey Maguire, specifically as The Wrestling Iteration of Peter Parker/Spider-Man fromSpider-Man
17.Benedict Cumberbatch’s Stephen Strange (aka Doctor Strange) fromSpider-Man: No Way Home
18.The 1977Amazing Spider-ManTV Series
19.Dakota Johnson’s Cassandra Webb (aka Madame Web) fromMadame Web(2024)
20.Christopher Daniel Barnes’s Peter Parker (aka Spider-Man) fromSpider-Man: The Animated Series
21.And finally, Tom Holland’s Peter Parker (aka Spider-Man) fromSpider-Man: No Way Home
Marvel / Viayoutu.beAn extremely intriguing aspect of Sony’sSpider-ManUniverse is how they’re expanding the story through different mediums, including an upcoming Manga spin-off ofAcross the Spider-Versefocusing on Otoha Okutamiya, a Japanese school-girl who moonlights as Octopus Girl, her universe’s version of Doctor Octopus. With this title directly tying intoAcross the Spider-Verse, it would be a cool tip-of-the-hat to Manga fans if Okutamiya showed face (and mechanical tentacles) inBeyond the Spider-Verse.
