Who Dies and Who Survives in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse?


Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse features the return of Miles Morales and Gwen Stacy back into their web-slinging multiverse adventures as they face a new threat in the ‘Spider-Verse’ and that’s the main villain of the story, The Spot.

As The Spot ventured off to different places in the universe to make himself stronger, all the while considering how dark the Spider-Verse could be, this leaves the question, who dies and who survives in the film?

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse had two deaths, namely, Earth-1610 Peter Parker aka the ‘original’ Spider-Man in Miles’ universe, and his uncle Aaron Davis aka the Prowler in the film.

The death of Uncle Aaron devastated Miles to the brink of questioning whether this was supposed to be a good thing, if it was even heroic to defeat his uncle in the fight.

Well, as you might have noticed in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, no major death occurred. Except for the past Uncle Ben’s the other Spider-people experienced.

Although, at the beginning of the film, we did have Gwen Stacy’s perspective of the story, and she ended up losing her best friend, Peter Parker, from her own universe.

Gwen’s Peter Parker strove to be stronger, but eventually turned himself into a lizard villain who Spider-Gwen ended up killing, unbeknownst to her that it had been her best friend all along.

Not to mention, Miles’ father was dead in the Earth-42 version, which arises a new conflict in Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse as to what Earth-42 Miles wants to do with ‘original’ Miles’ still-alive father in Earth-1610.

But for any other major character? No one died. Though we can’t be too sure once Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse comes out.

Technically, every single character survived, despite the Spider-people on a constant chase to Miles Morales to stop him from changing the ‘canon event’ in his world.

We have yet to see how much stronger the main villain, The Spot, has grown to be, though.

So there’s a question as to whether we will be losing a group of Spider-people or any of Miles Morales’ family and friends in Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse.

For now, though, rest assured, everybody’s been kept safe.

Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse is currently slated to be released on March 29, 2024.

With that big of a time gap leaves the ever-evolving mystery as to how Miles could return to his Earth-1610 and how they and the Spider-people can stop The Spot’s evil plans.

In addition to that is whether Miles will be able to save his dad from his tragic fate after becoming captain on the force. And if so, will Miles end up with the same fate as Miguel O’Hara’s (Spider-Man 2099)?

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is now premiering in theaters worldwide!
