A New 'Spider-Verse' Short Film Will Debut on YouTube Next Week

It's unlikely audiences will revisit the Spider-Verse on the big screen anytime soon, with Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse eyeing a 2025 release date amid delays, but viewers can soon see a new story about Miles Morales for free from the comfort of their own home. Following its North American debut at last year's Annecy International Animation Film Festival, The Spider Within: A Spider-Verse Story is coming exclusively to YouTube courtesy of Sony. Variety reports that the short film will be available on Sony Pictures Animation's channel starting on March 27 as part of a partnership with the mental health outreach and support program, the Kevin Love Fund.
