'''''Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse''''' is a 2018 American animated [[superhero film]] featuring the [[Marvel Comics]] character [[Miles Morales|Miles Morales / Spider-Man]], produced by [[Columbia Pictures]] and [[Sony Pictures Animation]] in association with [[Marvel Entertainment]], and distributed by [[Sony Pictures Releasing]]. It is the first animated film in the [[Spider-Man in film|''Spider-Man'' franchise]] and the first film in the [[Spider-Verse (franchise)|''Spider-Verse'' franchise]], which is set in a shared [[Multiverse (Marvel Comics)|multiverse]] of [[Parallel universes in fiction|alternate universes]] called the "[[Spider-Verse#Film|Spider-Verse]]".<ref name="HenryDiversity"/><ref name="Perry 2015"/> Directed by [[Bob Persichetti]], [[Peter Ramsey]], and [[Rodney Rothman]] from a screenplay by [[Phil Lord]] and Rothman, it stars [[Shameik Moore]] as Morales, alongside the voices of [[Jake Johnson]], [[Hailee Steinfeld]], [[Mahershala Ali]], [[Brian Tyree Henry]], [[Lily Tomlin]], [[Lauren Vélez|Luna Lauren Vélez]], [[John Mulaney]], [[Kimiko Glenn]], [[Nicolas Cage]], and [[Liev Schreiber]]. The film's story follows Miles as he becomes the new Spider-Man and joins other Spider-People from various parallel universes who team up to save [[New York City]] from [[Kingpin (character)|the Kingpin]].

Plans for an animated Spider-Man film by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller were leaked in 2014 and announced in April 2015. Persichetti, Ramsey and Rothman joined over the next two years, with Moore and Schreiber cast in April 2017. Lord and Miller wanted the film to have a unique style, combining computer animation with hand-drawn comic techniques inspired by the work of Miles Morales co-creator [[Sara Pichelli]]. The film required <!-- 142 animators,<ref name="DirectorsColliderAug2018" /> peaking at 177 animators<ref name="ITSVSony"> --> the largest crew of animators used by [[Sony Pictures Animation]] on a feature film.

The film premiered at the [[Fox Theater, Westwood Village|Regency Village Theater]] in Los Angeles on December 1, 2018, and was theatrically released in the United States on December 14. The film grossed $384.3&nbsp;million worldwide against a $90&nbsp;million budget and received critical acclaim.<!-- As per WP:FILMLEAD, any summary statement should reflect an overall consensus that is summarized explicitly by at least one reliable source. --> The film won [[Academy Award for Best Animated Feature|Best Animated Feature]] at the [[91st Academy Awards]]—being the first non-[[Walt Disney Animation Studios|Disney]]/[[Pixar Animation Studios|Pixar]] film to win the award since ''[[Rango (2011 film)|Rango]]'' (2011). Filmmakers and animation peers have praised its aesthetics and acknowledged its influence on subsequent animated productions. ''Into the Spider-Verse'' has since been regarded as one of the greatest and most impactful animated films.

A sequel, ''[[Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse]]'', was released in 2023 to similar critical acclaim and greater commercial success. A third film, ''[[Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse]]'', is in production. A spin-off film focused on female Spider-related characters is in development.

==Plot==
<!-- In accordance with [[WP:PLOTSUM]], please keep this plot summary between 400 to 700 words. -->
New York City teenager Miles Morales struggles to live up to the expectations of his father, police officer [[Jefferson Davis (character)|Jefferson Davis]], who sees [[Spider-Man (Ultimate Marvel character)|Spider-Man]] as a menace. Miles' uncle [[Prowler (Marvel Comics)#Ultimate Marvel|Aaron]] takes him to an abandoned subway station to paint [[graffiti]] as a way to cheer him up. There, Miles is bitten by a radioactive spider and gains abilities similar to Spider-Man. Returning to the station where he got bit, he discovers a [[collider]] built by [[Kingpin (character)|Kingpin]], who hopes to access parallel universes to abduct alternate versions of his late wife [[Vanessa Fisk|Vanessa]] and son [[Richard Fisk|Richard]]. Spider-Man attempts to disable the collider while fighting Kingpin's enforcers, the [[Green Goblin (Ultimate Marvel character)|Green Goblin]] and [[Prowler (Marvel Comics)|Prowler]].

Green Goblin shoves Spider-Man into the collider, causing an explosion that kills the former and wounds the latter, who then gives Miles a [[USB flash drive]] designed to disable the collider, warning that the machine could destroy the city if reactivated. After watching in horror as Kingpin murders Spider-Man, Miles flees. As the city mourns Spider-Man's death, Miles tries to honor his legacy by becoming the new Spider-Man, but inadvertently damages the drive. At Spider-Man's grave, he meets [[Spider-Man|Peter B. Parker]], a middle-aged, world-weary variant of Spider-Man from another dimension.

The duo infiltrate Kingpin's research facility to steal data for a new flash drive. They are confronted by head scientist [[Olivia Octavius]], who discovers that Peter will die from cellular decay if he remains in their dimension. Miles and Peter are saved by [[Gwen Stacy (Spider-Verse)|Gwen Stacy]], a Spider-Woman from another dimension. They visit Spider-Man's aunt, [[Aunt May#Ultimate Marvel|May Parker]], who is sheltering more Spider-People who slipped into Miles' universe from other dimensions due to the collider's influence—[[Spider-Man Noir]], [[Peni Parker]], and [[Spider-Ham]]—who are also deteriorating. Miles offers to help the others return home but they tell him he lacks experience.

Distraught, Miles retreats to Aaron's home, where he discovers his uncle is the Prowler. He flees to May's house, where the new drive is completed by Peni; he is followed by Kingpin, Aaron, Octavius, [[Scorpion (Mac Gargan)|Scorpion]], and [[Tombstone (comics)|Tombstone]]. In the ensuing brawl, he reveals his identity to Aaron. Unwilling to kill his own nephew, Aaron attempts to spare Miles, but is fatally shot by Kingpin in retaliation and dies in Miles' arms. Miles flees just as Jefferson arrives on the scene; he mistakes the new Spider-Man as his brother's murderer. The Spider-People regroup with a devastated Miles. Not wanting to let Miles get killed, Peter restrains Miles with his webs and chooses to sacrifice himself by staying behind and deactivating the collider.

Jefferson arrives outside the door of Miles' dorm room and apologizes for his mistakes and expresses his faith in Miles, inspiring him. Miles manages to control his powers, escapes his restraints, and creates his own Spider-Man suit. He joins the other Spider-People in defeating Kingpin's enforcers, and uses the new drive to send them home. Kingpin fights and overpowers Miles, attracting Jefferson's attention. Realizing that Spider-Man is not the menace he saw him as, he encourages Miles, who throws Kingpin at the collider's [[kill switch]], destroying it. The city is saved, Kingpin and his henchmen are arrested and Jefferson receives evidence of Kingpin's murders of Aaron and the first Spider-Man.

Miles embraces the responsibilities of his new life. Later, Gwen finds a way to contact Miles from her own dimension.{{efn|In ''[[Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse]]'' (2023), this scene is established to take place sixteen months later.}} Elsewhere, [[Spider-Man 2099|Miguel O'Hara]], also known as Spider-Man 2099, travels to Earth-67 and argues with its Spider-Man.{{efn|This scene is a reference to a scene from the [[Spider-Man (1967 TV series)|1967–1970 ''Spider-Man'' TV series]] episode "[[List of Spider-Man (1967 TV series) episodes#ep19|Double Identity]]", in which the villain Charles Cameo dresses up like Spider-Man to impersonate him; the episode's scene has since become an [[Internet meme]].<ref>{{cite web |date= December 14, 2018 |first= Joanna |last= Robinson |title= Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse: The End of Credits Scene, Explained |url=https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2018/12/spider-man-into-the-spider-verse-end-of-credits-who-is-miguel-ohara |website= [[Vanity Fair (magazine)|Vanity Fair]] |publisher= Condé Nast |access-date= September 20, 2019 |archive-date= August 4, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200804205809/https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2018/12/spider-man-into-the-spider-verse-end-of-credits-who-is-miguel-ohara |url-status= live }}</ref>}}

In addition to the six main versions of Spider-Man present in the film, [[Chris Pine]] is featured as a 26-year-old, blond-haired blue-eyed version of [[Spider-Man (Ultimate Marvel character)|Peter Parker's Spider-Man]] native to Miles' dimension. Though he offers to mentor Miles, he is murdered by Kingpin after the activation of the collider before he can do so. This version of Parker was intended to be "as competent a Spider-Man as possible", and combines elements from previous Spider-Man portrayals, but with slight differences to indicate that he is from a different universe than the others.

Following the [[2014 Sony Pictures hack|November 2014 hacking of Sony's computers]], emails between then-[[Sony Pictures|Sony Pictures Entertainment]] co-chairman [[Amy Pascal]] and president [[Doug Belgrad]] were released, saying that Sony was planning to "rejuvenate" the [[Spider-Man in film|''Spider-Man'' franchise]] by developing an animated comedy film with [[Phil Lord and Christopher Miller]].<ref name="WSJDec2014"/> During her time as Sony's co-chairman, Pascal approached Lord and Miller about making an animated [[Spider-Man]] movie, to which Lord and Miller agreed with the condition that they could adapt [[Dan Slott]]'s 2014 "[[Spider-Verse]]" comic book storyline and star [[Miles Morales]] as the protagonist.<ref name="PascalFandango"/> Sony executives were set to talk about the project further in a discussion regarding several ''Spider-Man'' spin-off films at a summit in January 2015.<ref name="WSJDec2014"/> At the 2015 CinemaCon in April, Sony Pictures chairman [[Tom Rothman]] announced that the animated Spider-Man film had a July 20, 2018 release date, and would be produced by Lord and Miller, [[Avi Arad]], [[Matt Tolmach]], and Pascal, with Lord and Miller also writing a treatment for the film. Rothman said that it would "co-exist" with the live-action ''Spider-Man'' films; though Sony soon stated that the film would "exist independently of the projects in the live-action Spider-Man universe",<ref name="VarietyApr2015"/> as it is set in an alternate universe from those films, without the [[Peter Parker (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|version of Spider-Man]] as seen in the [[Marvel Cinematic Universe]] (MCU).<ref name="TrailerVerge"/>

That December, Sony moved the film's release date to December 21, 2018.<ref name="Release2"/> By June 2016, Lord had written a script for the film, and the studio chose [[Bob Persichetti]] to direct.<ref name="Persichetti"/> Miller said the film would feel different from previous ''Spider-Man'' films, and would "stand on its own as a unique film-going experience".<ref name="LordMillerJun2016"/> It was also "rumored" to focus on the [[Miles Morales]] version of Spider-Man,<ref name="Persichetti"/><ref name="LordMillerJun2016"/> which Sony confirmed at a presentation for its upcoming animated films in January 2017. [[Peter Ramsey]] had joined the film as a co-director by that point.<ref name="ForbesJan2017"/> The next month, [[Alex Hirsch]] was named as a story contributor and Christina Steinberg replaced Tolmach as a producer; she previously collaborated with Ramsey on ''[[Rise of the Guardians]]'' (2012) while at [[DreamWorks Animation]].<ref name="CinemaCon2018"/><ref name="Hirsch"/> In April 2017, the release date was pushed up one week from December 21, 2018, to December 14, 2018.<ref name="CBRApr17"/> Lord and Miller announced the film's full title in December and said that multiple Spider-Men would appear in the film. By then, [[Rodney Rothman]], who had previously co-written the screenplay for Lord and Miller's ''[[22 Jump Street]]'' (2014), was added as a co-director.<ref name="Title"/>

===Writing===
The script is credited to Lord and Rothman from a story by Lord, making it the first film Lord had written without Miller.<ref name="DeadlineTrailer2"/> As six Spider-Man films had been made already, the team agreed they first needed to decide why this one needed to be made; their answer was to tell the story of Morales, who had yet to appear in a film.<ref name="DirectorsColliderAug2018"/> [[Brian Michael Bendis]], co-creator of Miles Morales, consulted on the film adaptation.<ref name="VultureUniverseJuly2018"/> The first full cut of [[Storyboard#Animatics|animatics]] and storyboards for the film was over two hours long, which is uncommon for animated films. The directors attributed this mostly to Lord and Miller, and their approach of adding as many elements to the film as they could at the outset, with the intention of seeing what it could "handle"; and then shaping the film from there. They said that the final runtime would be between 90 and 120 minutes, the standard length of an animated film. They added that a balance would have to be found between the expectations of an animated film that will have a large audience of children, and the requirements of the story. The directors felt the plot was similar to the live-action Spider-Man films, especially due to the large number of characters in the film.<ref name="DirectorsColliderAug2018"/> One year prior to its release, Lord and Rothman opted to rewrite the story as they had to "figure out how to reshape sequences we had already boarded and animated and fold them in with new stuff"''.'' They also added that they had substantially rewritten the third act.<ref name="1YearPriorRewrite"/>

The film was originally set to feature a romance between Miles Morales and [[Spider-Gwen]].<ref name="Spider-VerseSequelPlans"/> While the idea was scrapped, Gwen was still featured prominently in the film, mostly due to the efforts of producer Christina Steinberg.<ref name="Spider-VerseSequelPlans"/> By August 2018, the directors had considered what a potential [[post-credits scene]] for the film could be, given that audiences have come to expect them from Marvel films.<ref name="DirectorsColliderAug2018"/> At one point the writers wished to include a post-credits scene with cameos by all three live-action Spider-Man actors, [[Tobey Maguire]], [[Andrew Garfield]], and [[Tom Holland]], but this was canceled as Sony felt such a moment at the time would cause confusion and be too risky.<ref>{{cite web |last=Bisset |first=Jennifer |title=Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse almost had Tom Holland, Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield cameos |url=https://www.cnet.com/news/spider-man-into-the-spider-verse-almost-had-tom-holland-tobey-maguire-and-andrew-garfield-cameos/ |website=CNet |access-date=December 11, 2020 |archive-date=June 17, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200617021841/https://www.cnet.com/news/spider-man-into-the-spider-verse-almost-had-tom-holland-tobey-maguire-and-andrew-garfield-cameos/ |url-status=live }}</ref> Holland recalled the scene was intended to include him as a passerby at a train station who says, "Hey, kid!" to Miles.<ref name="Fitzpatrick">{{cite magazine |date=June 29, 2019 |last=Fitzpatrick |first=Kevin |title=Tom Holland Met Miles Morales in Cut Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse Cameo |url=https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2019/06/tom-holland-spider-man-cameo-miles-morales |url-status=live |magazine=[[Vanity Fair (magazine)|Vanity Fair]] |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201129203143/https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2019/06/tom-holland-spider-man-cameo-miles-morales |archive-date=November 29, 2020 |quote=At one point, I was supposed to be in it |access-date=April 1, 2022 }}</ref> In the original subplot, Miles was going to become Spider-Man from learning from an audio commentary featuring [[James Cameron]] and [[Tom Cruise]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=Sciretta |first=Peter |date=2019-02-26 |title=Tom Cruise And James Cameron Were Almost In 'Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse' |url=https://www.slashfilm.com/564572/tom-cruise-in-spider-verse/ |access-date=2024-06-30 |website=SlashFilm |language=en-US}}</ref>

===Casting===
[[Shameik Moore]] was cast as [[Miles Morales]] in April 2017, along with [[Liev Schreiber]] as the film's then-unspecified main villain.<ref name="MooreSchreiber"/> A month later, [[Mahershala Ali]] and [[Brian Tyree Henry]] joined the cast as Morales's uncle [[Prowler (Aaron Davis)|Aaron Davis]] and father [[Jefferson Davis (comics)|Jefferson Davis]], respectively.<ref name="AliHenry"/> That December, Lord and Miller said that an adult Peter Parker / Spider-Man would appear in the film as a mentor to Morales.<ref name="CCXP17"/> Maguire, who played [[Peter Parker (Sam Raimi film series)|Spider-Man]] in the [[Sam Raimi]] [[Spider-Man (2002 film series)|films]], was initially considered to be cast as this version of Spider-Man, but the idea was dropped so as not to confuse the audience with the concept of the "Spider-Verse".<ref name=maguire>{{Cite news|url=https://screencrush.com/tobey-maguire-into-the-spider-verse/|title=Tobey Maguire Was Considered for 'Spider-Verse's Peter Parker|last=Singer|first=Matt|date=December 4, 2018|work=[[ScreenCrush]]|access-date=February 22, 2019|archive-date=August 12, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190812035341/https://screencrush.com/tobey-maguire-into-the-spider-verse/|url-status=live}}</ref> [[Jake Johnson]] was ultimately cast in the role in April 2018.<ref name="Johnson"/> It was also announced that the characters [[Green Goblin]], [[Kingpin (character)|Kingpin]], and [[Prowler (Marvel Comics)|Prowler]] would also appear, with their designs based on the [[Ultimate Marvel]] comic series.<ref name="CC2018Villains"/> [[Kathryn Hahn]] was cast as a female variant of [[Doctor Octopus]] called Olivia Octavius; earlier drafts for the film had the character's known male version as a ''[[The Big Lebowski]]'' (1998)-type of character, but Persichetti came up with changing the character's gender due to his kids being friends with Hahn's.<ref>{{Cite tweet |number=1258215406633799680 |user=rodneyrothman |title=Turning Doc Ock into a woman was a @bob_persichetti idea.

In June 2018, Sony confirmed further casting, including Schreiber playing Kingpin, [[Hailee Steinfeld]] as [[Spider-Gwen]], [[Lauren Vélez|Luna Lauren Vélez]] as Morales's mother [[Rio Morales|Rio]], and [[Lily Tomlin]] as Parker's [[Aunt May]].<ref name="CastJun2018"/> A month later, [[Nicolas Cage]] (who was considered for the role of [[Norman Osborn (Sam Raimi film series)|Green Goblin]] in the first ''[[Spider-Man (2002 film)|Spider-Man]]'' film),<ref>{{cite news |last=Aames |first=Ethan |date=September 18, 2004 |title=Interview: Nicolas Cage on National Treasure |url=http://www.cinecon.com/news.php?id=0411181 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200825235552/http://www.cinecon.com/news.php?id=0411181 |archive-date=August 25, 2020 |access-date=October 10, 2007 |publisher=Cinema Confidential}}</ref><ref>{{cite magazine |last=Keck |first=William |date=September 1, 2000 |title='Spider-Man' Casting Nic Cage? |url=https://ew.com/article/2000/09/01/spider-man-casting-nic-cage/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201108165429/https://ew.com/article/2000/09/01/spider-man-casting-nic-cage/ |archive-date=November 8, 2020 |access-date=March 17, 2021 |magazine=[[Entertainment Weekly]]}}</ref> [[John Mulaney]] and [[Kimiko Glenn]] were announced as the voices of [[Spider-Man Noir]],<ref name="Cage"/> [[Spider-Ham]] and [[Peni Parker]], respectively.<ref name="MulaneyGlenn"/> [[Chris Pine]] as the Peter Parker of Miles' universe and [[Oscar Isaac]] as [[Spider-Man 2099]] were announced in November 2018.<ref name="Isaac"/><ref name="Pine"/> Pine was also involved in Ramsey's previous film, ''Rise of the Guardians''.

===Music===
{{main|Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (soundtrack){{!}}''Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse'' (soundtrack)}}
[[Daniel Pemberton]] was announced as the film's composer in July 2018.<ref name="Pemberton"/> A full soundtrack album was released by [[Republic Records]] on December 14, the day of the film's release, and was curated to represent what a teen like Miles Morales would listen to.<ref name="ComplexSoundtrack"/> Artists on the soundtrack include [[Jaden Smith]], [[Nicki Minaj]], [[Lil Wayne]], [[Post Malone]], [[Ty Dolla Sign]], [[Juice Wrld]], [[Swae Lee]], [[Ski Mask the Slump God]], [[Vince Staples]], [[Thutmose (musician)|Thutmose]], and the late [[XXXTentacion]], who was marketed as a special guest on the Lil Wayne and Ty Dolla Sign song "Scared of the Dark". A separate album containing Pemberton's score was released by [[Sony Classical Records]] on December 17.<ref name="PembertonScoreAlbum"/> On December 20, Sony Pictures Animation announced an [[extended play]] album, ''A Very Spidey Christmas'', based on a throwaway joke at the beginning of the film and consisting of five Christmas songs performed by cast members Shameik Moore, Jake Johnson, and Chris Pine. The EP was released on digital platforms the next day.<ref name="ChristmasEP1"/><ref name="ChristmasEP2"/>

[[Elliphant]] recorded the song "To the End" for the film, where it served as the introduction music for [[Spider-Woman (Gwen Stacy)|Spider-Woman]].

===Animation and design===
The film's animation was handled by [[Sony Pictures Imageworks]] in [[Vancouver]], who had handled nearly all of Sony Pictures Animation's prior films, as well as [[visual effects]] for all prior ''Spider-Man'' films. According to Lord and Miller, they wanted the film to feel like the viewer had "walked inside a comic book", and were excited about telling the story in a way they believed the live-action films could not.<ref name="CCXP17"/> Persichetti concurred, feeling that animation was the best medium to honor the comics, allowing the production team to adapt 70-year-old comic art techniques for the film's visual language.<ref name="DirectorsColliderAug2018"/> It took around a year for two animators to create 10 seconds of footage that reflected the producers' vision; the animation work was created from there.<ref name="Directorsio9Jul2018"/> During initial development, the directors worked with a single animator, [[Alberto Mielgo]], to establish the film's look.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.cartoonbrew.com/feature-film/alberto-mielgos-early-boards-for-spider-man-into-the-spider-verse-are-truly-amazing-169521.html |title=Alberto Mielgo's Early Boards For 'Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse' Are Nothing Short Of Amazing |last=Amidi |first=Amid |website=[[Cartoon Brew]] |date=January 25, 2019 |access-date=July 17, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200717190436/https://www.cartoonbrew.com/feature-film/alberto-mielgos-early-boards-for-spider-man-into-the-spider-verse-are-truly-amazing-169521.html |archive-date=July 17, 2020 |url-status=live}}</ref> Although Mielgo was let go by Sony before the movie had been significantly produced due to artistic differences,<ref name="MielgoBlog">{{cite web |last=Mielgo |first=Alberto |title=Spiderman ― + |url=http://www.albertomielgo.com/spiderman/2018/12/19/d9zhz04jz8ddc22m0rcduzm56vw4fd |website=albertomielgo.com |access-date=April 21, 2021 |archive-date=April 21, 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210421201432/https://static1.squarespace.com/static/sitecss/54125aa2e4b0a0cf735e83ca/53/51e6b9e4e4b062dafa7099b9/54140489e4b077167a5221d6/1240-05142015/1616539310237/site.css |url-status=live }}</ref> this number eventually grew to 60 animators during production.

Animation work was completed in October 2018.<ref name="DirectorsColliderAug2018"/>

The [[Computer generated imagery|CGI]] animation for the film was combined with "line work and painting and dots and all sorts of comic book techniques", to make it look like it was created by hand, which was described as "a living painting".<ref name="CCXP17"/> This was achieved by artists taking rendered frames from the CGI animators and working on top of them in 2D, with the goal of making every frame of the film "look like a comic panel".<ref name="Nov2018Plans"/><ref name="poly">{{cite web|url=https://www.polygon.com/2018/12/11/18136056/spider-man-into-the-spider-verse-movie-art-animation-style-visual-effects|title='We ended up making five movies': An exclusive look at Into the SpiderVerse's art style|date=December 11, 2018|website=Polygon|access-date=December 14, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181215001020/https://www.polygon.com/2018/12/11/18136056/spider-man-into-the-spider-verse-movie-art-animation-style-visual-effects|archive-date=December 15, 2018| url-status = live }}</ref> Lord described this style of animation as "totally revolutionary",<ref name="CinemaCon2018"/> and explained that the design combines the in-house style of Sony Pictures Animation with the "flavor" of comic artists such as [[Sara Pichelli]] (who co-created Miles Morales) and Robbi Rodriguez.<ref name="CinemaCon2018"/><ref name="FandangoNov2018"/> The film's tone and visual style also drew influence from Japanese [[anime]] and [[manga]] works such as [[Hayao Miyazaki]] films and ''[[Akira (1988 film)|Akira]]'' (1988).<ref name="Anime">{{cite news |last=Morrissy |first=Kim |title=Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse Directors Discuss Film's Japanese Anime Influences |url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2019-05-19/spider-man-into-the-spider-verse-directors-discuss-film-japanese-anime-influences/.146685 |access-date=March 2, 2022 |work=[[Anime News Network]] |date=May 19, 2019}}</ref>

To make the film feel more like a comic book, it was animated without [[motion blur]], instead using an older technique of 2D animation called motion smearing, as seen in the 1942 ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' short ''[[The Dover Boys]]''. The [[frame rate]] varied between 24 images (animating on ones) and 12 images (animating on twos) per second, the latter case using the same image twice. The producers described the effect as making the animation "crunchy".

The directors all felt that the film would be one of the few that audiences actually "need" to watch in 3D, due to the immersive nature of the animated world created, and the way that the hand-drawn animation elements designed specifically for the film create a unique experience; Persichetti described the experience as a combination of the effects of an old-fashioned hand-drawn [[multiplane camera]] and a modern [[virtual reality]] environment.<ref name="DirectorsColliderAug2018"/> One scene in Aaron Davis's apartment includes an image of [[Donald Glover]] in the background, which references Glover's part in fan campaigns to see a non-white version of Spider-Man, as well as a scene from the ''[[Community (TV series)|Community]]'' episode "[[Anthropology 101]]" where Glover's character of [[List of Community characters#Troy Barnes|Troy Barnes]] wakes up in Spider-Man pajamas.<ref name="FandangoNov2018"/> Glover also portrayed Aaron Davis in ''[[Spider-Man: Homecoming]]'' and voiced Miles in the ''[[Ultimate Spider-Man (TV series)|Ultimate Spider-Man]]'' television series.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/la-et-mn-spider-man-homecoming-donald-glover-20170706-story.html |title=How Donald Glover wound up in 'Spider-Man: Homecoming,' and what it might mean for an inclusive future |last=Yamato |first=Jen |website= [[Los Angeles Times]] |date=July 6, 2017 |access-date=December 25, 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181229130505/https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/la-et-mn-spider-man-homecoming-donald-glover-20170706-story.html |archive-date=December 29, 2018 | url-status = live}}</ref>

===Marketing===
A thirty-second [[sizzle reel]] from the film was shown at a [[Sony Pictures Animation]] presentation in January 2017, revealing that the film focuses on [[Miles Morales]]. Scott Mendelson at ''[[Forbes]]'' said the footage "looked incredible {{sic}} stylized and resembled a cross between an [[Alex Ross]] image and a psychedelic [comic] cover", but felt the most significant element of the presentation was the confirmation of Morales, meaning "2018 will offer another comic book superhero movie featuring a hero of color, during the same year as [[Marvel Studios|Marvel]]'s ''[[Black Panther (film)|Black Panther]]''."<ref name="ForbesJan2017"/> A teaser trailer for the film debuted at the 2017 [[Comic Con Experience]], and was then released online.<ref name="Title"/> Chris Cabin at [[Collider (website)|Collider]] felt the trailer "looks much better than it ever needed to. The style and design that is on display ... is vibrant and immediately engaging on a visual level, showing a genuine sense of personality to the production."<ref name="TeaserCollider"/> [[io9]]'s Julie Muncy called the trailer's visual design "elegant" and "fresh", and highlighted the use of music by [[Vince Staples]], which was also used for the ''Black Panther'' trailers.<ref name="Teaserio9"/>

The official trailer for the film was released online at the start of June 2018, and was praised by Chaim Gartenberg of ''[[The Verge]]'' for its "absolutely gorgeous" art style, also highlighting Miles and Gwen's appearances.<ref name="TrailerVerge"/> For [[Cartoon Brew]], Amid Amidi praised the trailer for focusing on drama rather than action, and for seemingly targeting "a slightly hipper, more urban, and teen-oriented crowd." He felt that animated films were usually focused on pleasing "all-ages, all-audiences," which marked this film as a "radical change for United States feature animation".<ref name="TrailerCartoonBrew"/> Dani Di Placido of ''Forbes'' praised the trailer for inspiring interest in the Spider-Man property after several different incarnations of the character had appeared in films. He said it achieved this by leaning into the comic storyline of the Spider-Verse and having multiple versions of the character in one film, and by its "beautifully rendered" visuals, that differentiated it from other major animated films. Placido said, "it's nice to see a movie just go nuts and embrace the weirdness of comic books and their eternally shapeshifting storylines."<ref name="TrailerForbes"/> The trailer generated 164 thousand conversations across social media platforms within a day of its release, and in three days had been viewed 44 million times, making the film one of Sony's most viral, alongside ''[[Sausage Party]]'' (2016).<ref name="TrailerStats"/>

Sony released a second trailer for the film in October 2018,<ref name="DeadlineTrailer2"/> ahead of a promotional panel at [[New York Comic Con]] where the first 35 minutes of the film were shown.<ref name="DeadlineTrailer2"/><ref name="NYCCPanel"/> Lord and Miller explained that they chose not to show clips from throughout the film because they would lack context for the audience, so instead aired an extended sequence for the presentation, even though it had some unfinished animation and music.<ref name="NYCCPanel"/> At the time, Sony's film ''[[Venom (2018 film)|Venom]]'' was playing in theaters, featuring another extended clip from ''Into the Spider-Verse'' as a post-credits scene. The scene confirmed that [[Sony's Spider-Man Universe|the shared universe that ''Venom'' is part of]] is one of the universes connected within the "Spider-Verse" multiverse.<ref name="VenomPostCredits"/>

In November 2018, Sony launched ''Spider-Verse Web AR Experience'', a mobile [[augmented reality]] experience created by 8th Wall and Trigger to run on [[Amazon Web Services]]. Inspired by the film, the AR experience allows users to include Spider-Man in photos they take of their environment.<ref name="WebAR"/> The film also received a $115&nbsp;million promotional "boost" from various companies—one of the largest such campaigns for a Sony film—including the [[Ad Council]], who included the film's characters in an anti-bullying campaign; [[McDonald's]], with a unique [[Happy Meal]] TV spot created in the film's animation style, as well as a special "double height" Happy Meal box for Australian McDonald's locations, designed like a skyscraper that the characters can swing from; [[Synchrony Bank]], as part of their "Save Like a Hero" campaign; [[Nike, Inc.|Nike]], who sold the Air Jordan shoes that Morales wears in the film; [[General Mills]] cereal; official toy lines from [[Hasbro]]; themed cruises with [[Genting Cruise Lines]]; a "comprehensive" social media-based campaign in China by [[Tencent QQ]], a brand that can be seen in the film; and other technology partners [[eBay]], [[Vodafone]], [[Garmin]], [[Adobe Inc.|Adobe]], and [[Wacom]].<ref name="PromotionalBoost"/>

On December 21, 2018, an unlockable costume based on the Spider-Man suit worn by the Peter Parker of Miles' universe was added to the [[PlayStation 4]] video game ''[[Spider-Man (2018 video game)|Marvel's Spider-Man]]'' to promote the film.

During a special lecture at [[Takarazuka University]], [[anime]] director [[Yoshiyuki Tomino]] commented on the film's Best Animated Feature win at the Academy Awards:
"At first glance, it looks like a live-action film, and it's very experimental in various places. For American filmgoers, it may be their first time watching an animated film that isn't expressly for kids. I won't appraise the film's quality, but on a technical level, I can see how much hard work the staff put into it." He also expressed a belief that the anime industry should strive to surpass ''Into the Spider-Verse'' and other high-profile American animated features.<ref>{{Cite news |date=April 25, 2022 |title=Gundam Creator Yoshiyuki Tomino Expresses Thoughts on Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse Film |url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2019-05-06/gundam-creator-yoshiyuki-tomino-expresses-thoughts-on-spider-man-into-the-spider-verse-film/.146439 |quote= the paradigm-busting "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse." |access-date=May 6, 2019 |newspaper=[[Anime News Network]] }}</ref>
