After the MCU expanded on Peter Parker’s Spider-Verse, Kevin Feige hopes to have fan-favorite Miles Morales swing by the franchise.
The Marvel Studios boss recently teased plans for Spider-Man’s Black alter ego make a live-action appearance in a future movie, once he’s done saving the world in Sony Pictures’ animated Spider-Verse franchise, which concludes on June 18, 2027 with Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse.
“The good news is, Sony has the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse series, which are very popular and excellent, and Beyond the Spider-Verse is coming out next year,” Feige told China’s Watching Hollywood. “But yes, we definitely have plans [for a live-action Miles], and I think a live-action Spider-Man movie has this destiny: to add Miles sometime after the Spider-Verse series ends.”
Following Miles Morales’ big screen debut in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018) and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023), Shameik Moore reprises his voice role as the Marvel web-slinger in next year’s Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, which sees Miles trapped in an alternate universe and on the run while trying to save his family.
In Spider-Man: No Way Home, Tom Holland’s Peter Parker is introduced to predecessors Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire’s versions of the character when they chase down some of their own villains across the multiverse. “Somewhere there’s bound to be a Black Spider-Man,” says Electro (Jamie Foxx) in one scene.

“Audiences around the world were thrilled because they knew it might be a hint at Spider-Man Miles,” said Feige.
Feige added, “We’ve been thinking and discussing more Spider-Man adventures, regardless of agreements or contracts. My production partner, Amy Pascal, is already working on it, and we’ve had in-depth discussions about what the next two, three, four, and five Spider-Man movies might be about.”
In 2023, Pascal confirmed that a live-action Miles Morales movie was in the works. “You’ll see all of it. It’s all happening,” she told Variety.
Meanwhile, Holland’s Peter Parker returns for a fourth solo outing in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, premiering July 30 in theaters.
