Insomniac’s Spider-Man will be in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse

Even the PlayStation web-slinger makes an appearance!

Sony released a brand-new trailer for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse on Tuesday, and there’s a familiar face among the (many) easter eggs.

As with Into the Spider-Verse, there are many references toward Spider-Man’s 60-year history in Across the Spider-Verse – some of which are on full display in the latest teaser. However, there are a couple that should make fans of the hit PlayStation game Marvel’s Spider-Man thrilled – developer Insomniac Games’ versions of Peter Parker and Miles Morales make a brief appearance.

Firstly, watch the whole Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse trailer before we point out the aforementioned web-slinger. It’s well worth it – trust us on this one.

Now that you’re up to speed, we can actually point out the cameo. At roughly the trailer’s 1:18 minute mark, you can see Peter and Miles (specifically their PlayStation incarnations) on the right. Check out our screencap for a better look.

Shout out to Culture Crave for spotting this one. Cross-media nods like this are always fun.

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse hits theaters on June 2, 2023, so it’ll be a while before you can see the film. Meanwhile, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is slated for sometime next year though there’s yet to be an exact date.

The first trailer for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse dropped and it is absolutely perfect

Miles Morales is back for another multiverse adventure.

When Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse dropped in 2018, a new standard for the web-slinging hero was created, whether you were talking animated or live-action. The Oscar-winning Into the Spider-Verse told the story of Miles Morales (Shameik Moore) getting his powers and learning the Spidey ropes from a litany of Spider-Man variations from alternate universes, including Peter B. Parker (voiced by New Girl’s Jake Johnson), Spider-Ham (John Mulaney), Spider-Man Noir (Nic Cage) and Gwen Stacy (Hailee Steinfeld).

It was a nearly flawless film, and we’ve been waiting a long four-plus years for a sequel. Well, we got a title (Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse), we have a release date (June 2, 2023) and now we have a new trailer.

Oscar Isaac, Issa Ray and Daniel Kaluuya are among those joining an already star-studded cast, and it looks amazing. Is that Peter B. Parker with a baby carrier? Who are all these Spider-People? Has Oscar Isaac been bad in anything? June 2nd can’t get here soon enough.
