Spider-Man fans forced to wait even longer for highly anticipated sequel
Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse has been delayed again, with its release now anticipated for June 2027. The film, which is the final part of a trilogy, was originally scheduled for release in March 2024. The delay is reportedly a strategic move to coincide with US summer holidays and secure a more appealing international release date. Production faced previous challenges, including reports of scrapped work and delays caused by the 2023 Hollywood strikes. The film will continue the story from Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, featuring Shameik Moore as Miles Morales and other key cast members.

Miles Morales Can't Join the MCU Yet, Says Kevin Feige — GeekTyrant
For years, Marvel fans have been hyped about the possibility of Miles Morales swinging his way into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. After all, with rumors that Tom Holland might eventually hang up his web-shooters, it seemed like the perfect time for Marvel to introduce the beloved character. But, according to Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige, that's not happening anytime soon, and the reason might surprise you. At a recent press event promoting Fantastic Four: The First Steps , Feige shut down speculation about a live-action Miles Morales joining the MCU, at least in the near future. When asked about the status of a Miles Morales movie, Feige said:: 'That is nowhere.' He went on to explain why Marvel can't play with that particular web just yet: 'Sony has their brilliant, genius, incredible Spider-Verse animated franchise going and until that finishes, we've been told to stay away.' So, until Sony wraps up their critically acclaimed Spider-Verse saga, the MCU has to leave Miles alone. This effectively takes Miles off the table for a while. The final chapter of the animated trilogy, Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse , is currently scheduled for release on June 25, 2027. That means fans shouldn't expect Miles to appear in any major MCU events like Avengers: Secret Wars (coming December 17, 2027), especially since that movie is shaping up to be a multiversal showdown featuring Battleworld. Adding to that, Spider-Verse producers Phil Lord and Christopher Miller have made it clear this third film will serve as a 'massive finale' and deliver a 'satisfying conclusion' to their animated saga. So Sony is definitely not in a rush to let go of Miles for the MCU while they're wrapping up one of their biggest success stories. Now, back in 2023, Sony teased a live-action Miles Morales project. But since then, things have gone quiet. If Feige's comments are any indication, Sony is holding that card close to their chest until the animated trilogy concludes. Miles Morales was created in 2011 by Brian Michael Bendis and Sara Pichelli, with input from then-editor-in-chief Axel Alonso, Miles first appeared in Ultimate Fallout #4 following the death of Peter Parker in the Ultimate Universe (Earth-1610). In just over a decade, Miles has exploded in popularity. From groundbreaking comic runs to the hit Insomniac video games and the Oscar-winning Spider-Verse films, he's become a cornerstone of Marvel's modern era. Many fans argue he's the most successful legacy hero in comics, carving out his own identity rather than living in Peter Parker's shadow. If you were hoping to see Miles Morales show up in Secret Wars or the next Spider-Man trilogy, don't hold your breath. For now, he's firmly in Sony's court—and with Beyond the Spider-Verse coming in 2027, it's going to be a long wait. Source: Variety
