Sony's animated Spider-Verse films reinvented the wall-crawler with a groundbreaking art style and a multiverse of Spider-People. With the story split across a planned trilogy, a watch order guide keeps Miles Morales's journey straight.

The Spider-Verse films follow Miles Morales, a Brooklyn teenager who gains spider powers and discovers a vast multiverse filled with alternate Spider-People. Praised for their revolutionary animation and heartfelt storytelling, these movies form a continuous saga that is best watched in order.

πŸ• Release Order

Release order is the intended way to experience the trilogy, as each film picks up threads left by the previous one.

  1. Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)
  2. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023)
  3. Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse (upcoming)

Since the films tell one ongoing story, release order and story chronology are identical here.

πŸ“– Story Chronology

The narrative flows directly from Miles's origin into the sprawling multiverse conflict, so simply watch the films in the order they were released. 'Across the Spider-Verse' even ends on a cliffhanger that leads straight into the concluding chapter.

  1. Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)
  2. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023)
  3. Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse (upcoming)

Which Order Should You Choose?

There's only one way to go: start with 'Into the Spider-Verse' and continue in release order. The first film is a self-contained origin story, while the sequels form a two-part cliffhanger, so watching them in sequence is essential to follow Miles and Gwen's evolving arc.
