After the release of the 2018 action fantasy film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, Marvel fans were mesmerized by the animated character Miles Morales. The second installment in the series, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, also drew positive responses. With the third film in the franchise, Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse , set to hit theaters on an as-yet-unspecified date, fans are eagerly anticipating a film centered on a young Spider-Man, aka Miles Morales live-action movie. Now, Spider-Man showrunner Amy Pascal has hinted that the character is coming, but not anytime soon. Her stance was backed up by screenwriter Chris Miller in another cryptic social media post.

When Amy Pascal was asked about an update on the status of a live-action Miles Morales movie at the 2024 Academy Awards luncheon on February 12, she revealed that it could happen “one day.” “Until we make two more movies. We’re excited to make a Spider-Man animated movie,” she said. Although Pascal didn’t reveal any specific details, her cryptic statement has Marvel fans excited. Plus, Chris Miller adds fuel to the fire. He shared a clip of Pascal’s Variety interview on Holland’s live-action movie.”

The “two movies” Amy Pascal and Chris Miller talked about include the upcoming Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse and Spider-Man 4. Spider-Verse Beyond is directed by Joakim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers and Justin K. Thompson. It is produced under the Sony Pictures banner. Meanwhile, Spider-Man 4, starring Tom Holland, is in production and shares the same fate as Spider-Verse. A premiere date for Spider-Man 4 has yet to be determined.

Judging from Amy Pascal’s comments and Chris Miller’s news, it seems that Miles Morales’ live-action Marvel movie is only confirmed in the future of Spider-Man Beyond: Into the Universe and Spider-Man 4 It will be made later.

It’s unclear which Marvel movie series Miles Morales’ character will actually appear in when Sony turns it into a live-action movie. However, since Morales has his own loyal audience and is popular, it’s likely that if the movie gets made, it will take place in its own universe.
