So now theSpider-Man: Into the Spider-Versesequel will arrive onOctober 7, 2022, but other than that, we don’t know much about the movie. There have been little tidbits that have come to light here and there in the year and a half since the first movie was released, but not enough to give us any idea of a plot.

BeforeInto the Spider-Versehad even hit theaters,reportssaid a sequel was already in the works withWonder Woman 1984screenwriterDavid Callahamon board to write the screenplay, andAvatar: The Last Airbender’sJoaquim Dos Santosset to direct. We’re not sure if that’s still the cast, but we’re bound to find out sooner or later.

What we know for sure right now is that there will be abigger focus on a romanceblossoming between Miles Morales and Gwen Stacy, aka Spider-Gwen, from one of the parallel dimensions. In fact, we may catch up with themtwo years after the eventsof the first movie. Plus, Miles' roommate Ganke willhave a larger role to playin the sequel and Japanese Spider-Manwill be making an appearance.

Even though the voice cast hasn’t been confirmed yet, it’s believed thatShameik Moorewill return as Miles Morales andHailee Steinfeldwill reprise her role as Spider-Gwen. As for whether or not we’ll seeJake Johnson, John Mulaney, Nicolas Cage, andKimiko Glennback as Peter B. Parker, Spider-Ham, Noir Spider-Man, and Peni Parker, that remains unclear. For now, we’re just glad that the Spider-Verse will return to the big screen in the future.
