After this, we’d be happy to see them stay at the wheel of the Spider-Verse for as long as possible.ĭen of Geek: How did this all start for you?
#IS SPIDER MAN INTO THE SPIDER VERSE ON NETFLIX MOVIE#
here, and seeing him make the leap from the comics to the screen as Spider-Man is a moment of powerful and resonating significance.ĭen of Geek got the chance to speak about all this with Lord and Miller, who have directed gems like 21 Jump Street and The Lego Movie (as well as an abandoned version of Solo: A Star Wars Story) and have toyed with dipping into the live-action superhero realm with projects like The Flash. Black/Latino high school student Miles Morales (voiced expertly by Shameik Moore) is the youngster who gains great responsibility, etc. In terms of story, character and theme it’s a groundbreaker too. On a purely visual level it’s a thing of beauty. They’ve made perhaps the first comic book movie that truly looks from start to finish like it’s jumped right off the page, blending old-school and current animation techniques, both digital and analog, to subtly make every single shot in the movie seem like a comic book panel even if it’s not stationary. What Miller, Lord, Rothman and fellow co-directors Bob Persichetti and Peter Ramsey have done is a revelation. Just when critics who are generally down on the genre might be polishing up those “there is nothing new for the superhero movie to do” thinkpieces, producers Chris Miller and Phil Lord (the latter also a co-writer with co-director Rodney Rothman) have brought us Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, the first full-length animated superhero film to get a theatrical release since Batman: Mask of the Phantasm way back in the relative dark ages of 1993.
