The Multiverse Goes Madhouse
The internet is buzzing today after an early trailer for the highly anticipated Spider-Man: The Great Web leaked online. While Sony has yet to officially release the trailer, countless bootleg copies have already surfaced and gone viral across social media.
For those not up to date, Spider-Man: The Great Web is the next installment in the wildly popular Spider-Verse franchise from Sony Pictures. The film will once again feature Miles Morales (Shameik Moore) teaming up with various other Spider-heroes and Spider-folk from alternate dimensions.
A Rough Cut Unleashed
While the leaked footage is certainly thrilling fans, it’s worth noting that this trailer seems to be an early, unfinished cut. The visuals are impressive but appear rougher than one would expect for an official trailer release. There are likely placeholders, unpolished effects, and other issues that will be cleaned up for the final version. This was almost certainly an early proof of concept or test preview that was never intended for public eyes at this stage. Still, even in its raw form, the ambition and wild imagination of Spider-Man: The Great Web shines through spectacularly. Sony may regret this premature glimpse, but it’s only fueling fan fervor for what could be the biggest, most deliriously metaversal Spidey movie ever.
Spider-Infinity War
From what can be glimpsed in the leaked trailer footage, the movie appears to be taking the multiverse mayhem to a whole new level. We see not just different Spider-heroes like Spider-Gwen and Spider-Man 2099, but seemingly infinite variations – Spider-Hulks, Spider-Goblins, even what appears to be a Spider-Galactus!
The money shot is an epic scene with countless Spider-characters banding together to take on a massive interdimensional threat. Based on the scale and ambition on display, it seems Sony is pulling out all the stops to make this the biggest Spider-Verse adventure yet.
Meet Superior Spider
Naturally, plot details remain tightly under wraps for now. But the trailer does provide a hilarious first look at Daniel Radcliffe voicing the movie’s new Spider-villain, Superior Spider. With multiple arms, a hunched back, and warped features, Radcliffe is virtually unrecognizable and appears to be having a blast chewing the scenery.
Spinning Hype into the Stratosphere
While leaks are never ideal from the studio’s perspective, in this case it’s only ramping up excitement for the finished product. With stunning visuals, self-aware humor, and infinite Spider-possibilities, Spider-Man: The Great Web is shaping up to be the ultimate live-action Spider-Verse event.
Spider-Man: The Great Web swings into theaters June 16th. But if this trailer is any indication, the summer superhero season may have already found its webslinger champion.
