Kevin Feige “definitely has plans” to bring Miles Morales into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The MCU has heavily featured Tom Holland’s version of Peter Parker and his web-slinging alter ego, and now the Marvel Studios boss has admitted he’d love to have Miles Morales at his disposal.
He told China’s Watching Hollywood: “The good news is, Sony has the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse series, which are very popular and excellent, and Beyond the Spider-Verse is coming out next year.
“But yes, we definitely have plans [for a live-action Miles], and I think a live-action Spider-Man movie has this destiny: to add Miles sometime after the Spider-Verse series ends.”
Sony Pictures’ animated Spider-Verse franchise will conclude with Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse in 2027.
Shameik Moore will once again lend his voice to the character, having been part of 2018’s Into The Spider-Verse and 2023 sequel Across the Spider-Verse.
Although he is yet to appear in the MCU, fans noticed a nod to Miles Morales in YEAR’s Spider-Man: No Way Home.
In one scene, referencing Holland’s version meeting predecessors Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire’s respective Peter Parkers, Jamie Foxx’s Electro said: “Somewhere there’s bound to be a Black Spider-Man.”
Feige said: “Audiences around the world were thrilled because they knew it might be a hint at Spider-Man Miles.
“We’ve been thinking and discussing more Spider-Man adventures, regardless of agreements or contracts.
“My production partner, Amy Pascal, is already working on it, and we’ve had in-depth discussions about what the next two, three, four, and five Spider-Man movies might be about.”
Back in 2023, Pascal confirmed there were already ideas for a live-action Miles Morales movie.
Asked at the time about that and a potential Spider-Woman film, she told Variety: “You’ll see all of it.
“It’s all happening.”
Last month, Holland told how he wants to help set up the “next chapter” of Spider-Man, and he hopes his character can have a significant impact on the next generation in the way Downey Jr.’s Iron Man was a father figure to him.
He told Empire magazine: “For whoever’s next, whether that is a Miles Morales or a Spider-Gwen or a Spider-Woman or something like that, I would love to be a part of setting up the next chapter. Whatever that looks like, I don’t know.
“But, if I could do what Downey did for me, then I would be so content swinging off into the sunset.”
