The fans of the Oscar-winning film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse has something to look forward to in 2022. Marvel fans are celebrating after the franchise announced on Friday that it will finally have a sequel. It can be remembered that the film was a hit in 2018 when it released its comic book.

According to CNN, the sequel is expected to be released on April 8, 2022, but no other details were released. The announcement of its sequel was revealed after Spider-Verse won the Best Animated feature award, beating animated films like Incredibles 2, Isle of Dogs, and Ralph Breaks the Internet. Indeed, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse stood out for its stunning animation and graphics.

The comic-inspired film grossed $375.5 million worldwide and won several awards earlier this year including Best Animated Feature and Oscar's Best Animated Picture. In addition, the film also received best reviews compared to other superhero movies aside from awards and its gross income. The animated film is largely regarded as one of the best Spider-Man movies and was also awarded as the Oscars' Best Animated Picture.

In another report from The Verge, the Sony Pictures tweeted its sequel attached with a cool, glitchy video featuring a warped Spider-Man logo. The movie follows the Afro-Hispanic teen Miles Morales who develops his power after being bitten by a spider. However, the sequel will not be picking up from where it left off. The film will start by introducing different Spider-People from different dimensions like Spider Gwen, Spider Ham, and of course the favorite of all times, Peter Parker.

This time, not only the characters are coming back. On Twitter, producers Phil Lord and Christopher Miller made an announcement that they too are coming back for the sequel.

Meanwhile, the Sony and Disney are now working the third Peter Parker starring Spider-Man movie. It can also be remembered that Tom Holland stars one the Spider-Man movies within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Sony company did not give too much information except that all Spider-Man from different dimensions will be in a nutshell and will end up in Morales' world through a dimensional portal. The different Spider-Man from different dimensions have to work together in order for them to find their way home.

The Sony Pictures left a question to the Spider-Man fans: are they going to save the world? Because after all, it is a superhero movie. That is what the fans will look forward in 2022. Many of the Spider-Man fans are now excited for its sequel.

In one of the reviews of the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, it was described as a raucous, smart and self-referential adventure. The comic-inspired visuals are stunning and the emotional impact of the film is relevant and inspiring even if it acknowledges the previous Spider-Man movies. That being said, people will definitely have high expectations for the sequel.
