Miles Morales faces new dilemma in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse trailer

In 2018, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse became a groundbreaking achievement in animation due to its stunning visuals, adventurous storytelling, and fresh take on the superhero genre. Five years later, Miles Morales is set to make his highly anticipated return to the big screen in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, and Sony has just released a trailer for the film.

In the trailer, Miles (Shameik Moore) returns to Brooklyn and reunites with Gwen Stacy/Spider-Woman (Hailee Steinfeld). While traveling across the multiverse, Miles meets new, interesting Spider-People. However, when the Spot (Jason Schwartzman) threatens the entire multiverse, the Spider-People disagree on how to handle the situation. This leads to an epic showdown as Miles battles the other Spider-People toward the end of the trailer.

Comic book fans have been wondering for years when Miles Morales might make his live-action debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. 2017's Spider-Man: Homecoming encouraged those questions by not only marking the beginning of Sony Pictures' ongoing partnership with Marvel Studios, but also by briefly featuring Miles' canonical uncle, Aaron Davis (Donald Glover), who mentions he has a nephew he'd like to look out for in the film.
