Spiderman: Into the Spider-Verse’ sequel gets a release date, bumps ‘Vivo

“Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse” won’t be catching cobwebs.

After teasing fans on Twitter Thursday evening, Sony Pictures Animation confirmed Friday that the buzzy hero flick will get a sequel set to be released on April 8, 2022. The announcement was bolstered by a subsequent tweet showing “2022” flashing in a GIF foreground.

‘Terminator: Dark Fate’ Review

►Review: Terminator: Dark Fate. John DeFore reviews the big-budget sequel, which brings Linda Hamilton and James Cameron back into the Terminator fold.

Quote: “Dark Fate does offer a fair bit of pleasure to those wanting a 21st century retread of T2. But it suffers greatly from obeying the imperative the first sequel established: Trying to blow minds and up the ante the way that FX-pioneering adventure did, this one offers a series of action set pieces that go from big to huge to ludicrous, even as the script’s additions to fear-the-future mythology underwhelm.”

FIX MY FRANCHISE:
1) Stop retelling the same stories. IE: Look at Joker’s success
2) Stop selling CGI in place of story.
3) Pick the platform: Maybe TV is the way to go

Segment 4: Spin the Racks with Todd Black

WHAT DO YOU DO?

I’m a comic writer, novel writer, and overall creator of various things. I’ve made series like Guardians, Home, 10,000 Miles, Seekers of Science, Sherlock Holmes – The Greatest Detective and now…Tokyo Blade Detectives.

WHAT DO YOU GOT GOING ON THESE DAYS?

I’ve got a new Kickstarter going on, and am about to release the fifth book in my Sherlock Holmes series. Also have another comic in the works and Seekers of Science #3 will arrive later in November.

GOT A HOT TAKE?

I’m tired of people saying that the majority of the DCEU films are terrible. I prefer Batman V Superman to Civil War any day of the week and twice on Sundays! Plus, I’m more excited for Birds of Prey and Wonder Woman 1984 than any of the Marvel movies in 2020.
