Parker/Spider-Man. The animated sequel hails from directing team Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers and Justin K. Thompson with a script from producing duo Phil Lord and Christopher Miller and Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings co-writer David Callaham. Though the film is reported to introduce multiple Spider-People to the fold, one star is keeping mum on their supposed role in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (Part One).
