Miles Morales Faces Off Against a Multiverse of Spider-People in Across the Spider-Verse Trailer
Miles Morales is back as Spider-Man!
On Tuesday, Sony Pictures Entertainment released the official trailer for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, the sequel to 2018's Academy Award-winning animated movie Into the Spider-Verse.
The new trailer shows Miles (Shameik Moore) and his mother Rio (Luna Lauren Velez) as she shares her worries about Miles becoming more independent as he grows through adolescence — all the while moments from the character's adventures in Into the Spider-Verse play on.
After Miles reunites with Gwen Stacy (Hailee Steinfeld) and she invites him on a new adventure, "Brooklyn's full-time, friendly neighborhood Spider-Man is catapulted across the Multiverse, where he encounters a team of Spider-People charged with protecting its very existence," an official synopsis for the movie reads.
The trailer teases Miles and Gwen's encounters with dozens and dozens of other Spider-people in the multiverse — including the return of Jake Johnson's Peter B. Parker — but many Spider-people appear antagonistic to this Spider-Man and attack him on sight.

When the other Spider-characters "clash on how to handle a new threat," Miles is "pitted against the other Spiders" and embarks on another journey to save his loved ones and "redefine what it means to be a hero" along the way, per a synopsis.
