Into the Spider-Verse Directors Tease Sequel’s Possible Time Jump

It’s been known that Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse will be branching out into sequels, spinoffs, and possibly even TV shows in the near future. Last night at the red carpet before the 24th annual Critics’ Choice Awards, the film’s three directors were on hand to talk about what’s in store for Miles Morales’ next big screen adventure.

“We’re gonna start with Miles, we’re gonna cut to two years later, obviously,” Rodney Rothman told Variety, before his co-directors, Peter Ramsey, and Bob Persichetti, looked like they were trying to stop him from revealing too much more.
