Spider-fans will have to wait a little bit longer for the next installment in Sony's animated Spider-Verse series. Sony announced that Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse Part 1 has officially been moved from its planned October 7, 2022 release date all the way to June 2, 2023.

Along with this rather significant shift in release date, Sony also announced the scheduled release date for its upcoming Madame Web movie, which will star Dakota Johnson in the title role and Euphoria's Sydney Sweeney in an as of yet undisclosed role. That movie, which will fall into Sony's own Spider-Man cinematic universe will hit theaters on July 7, 2023.

It marked the return of Shameik Moore as Miles Morales and also Hailee Steinfeld as Gwen Stacy. Miles is shown being thrown through multiple universes while tussling with the Spider-Man of 2099, who appeared in a brief post-credits scene in Into The
