After waiting what feels like a long while for the third and final part of the Spider-Verse saga, next year will officially be the year when Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse makes its debut in cinemas around the world. With production on the movie currently underway, writer and producer duo Christopher Miller and Phil Lord have now provided an update on the flick in an interview with Empire.
The creative pair have explained that work is progressing smoothly and that the current emphasis is on fitting the flick to IMAX standards, with this set to be the first film in the trilogy to be made for IMAX screens too.
Miller notes: "We are deep, deep in it. We're actually going today to the IMAX headquarters to see what the footage looks like at scale, and make sure that it has the resolution that it needs to look gorgeous. We're chugging away in the edit room with the team, and it's coming together really well. It's a lot of movie, and a lot to do. ou got to keep doing something that hasn't been done before. That's all you got to do. Easy!"
It should be said that the wait between Beyond the Spider-Verse and 2023's Across the Spider-Verse will be a shorter period of time than the wait between Across the Spider-Verse and the original Into the Spider-Verse from 2018. So while it has felt like a considerable amount of time, likely in part due to the multiple delays, it is coming in quite timely fashion by the series' standards.
As for the premiere date of Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, it's currently set for June 18, 2027, so in less than 12 months you will hopefully be able to watch the highly-anticipated animated conclusive chapter.
