Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers, and Justin K. Thompson’s Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse<\/a> gave us a great many things: a sprawling tale of becoming and belonging; not one but five visually distinct, eye-poppingly animated new worlds; and enough new Spider-People to fill a whole damn Spider Society. But of all the new things the Into The Spider-Verse<\/a> sequel gave us, Daniel Kaluuya’s electrifying anarchist Hobie Brown \u2014 aka Spider-Punk \u2014 may well be the greatest. And clearly the folks at Sony Pictures Animation agree, as Deadline<\/a> are reporting that the studio is in early development on a solo Spider-Punk animated feature.<\/p>\n

Set to be co-written by Kaluuya alongside Ajon Singh, whose sole screenwriting credit to date is upcoming Robert Pattinson A24 joint Primetime, precious little is known about what Spider-Punk’s first headline gig will entail. In fact, although we would absolutely presume Kaluuya will be back to voice Earth-138B’s swaggering, anti-establishment Londoner, as of this moment in time we don’t actually have confirmation that the Judas And The Black Messiah<\/a> star will be back in the booth for this one. What we do know however, courtesy of the man himself, is that when Hobie isn’t swinging through the streets of Camden, air guitar and mohawk in tow, he’s playing shows, antagonising fascists, staging unpermitted political actions slash performance-art pieces, or having a laugh at the pub with the mandem \u2014 all of which is to say that there’s plenty of scope for the arachnoid anarchist-cum-activist’s adventures to continue beyond whatever Beyond The Spider-Verse<\/a> may have in store when it hits cinemas on 25 June, 2027.<\/p>\n

Handily, in the absence of further info on what Spider-Punk will be up to when he does eventually take centre stage, there’s no shortage of web-slinging action to look forward to elsewhere. Alongside the aforementioned Spider-Verse trilogy capper coming the summer after next, there’s Nicolas Cage’s live-action Spider-Man Noir debut to look forward to in Prime Video’s upcoming Spider-Noir<\/a>, and just this past weekend we got our first look at Tom Holland’s long-awaited return as the MCU’s own wall crawler in Spider-Man: Brand New Day<\/a>, which is slated to hit cinemas on 31 July, 2026.
