Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse: New Video Explains The Multiverse

A new video put out by Sony Pictures explains how all of the Spider-People in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse are connected.

The concept of a "multiverse" is not unfamiliar to those who have been reading comics. It's been floating around for decades, but introducing it to people who don't read comics has been a slower process. The Arrowverse on the CW managed to pull it off pretty damn well; if we're honest, we will continue giving them the credit they deserve. The Marvel Cinematic Universe has some issues balancing the multiverse, but they seem to be figuring it out. DC Studios on the big screen is a giant mess, and don't even get us started on That Scene in The Flash. Sony Pictures has always been in a weird position with having Marvel characters but not being connected to the Marvel Universe. They officially brought Spider-Man to the MCU in Captain America: Civil War and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Spider-Man: No Way Home both confirmed that the previous versions of Spider-Man, played by Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, respectively, exist in the multiverse as well. Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse positioned the idea that everything could be connected, but its sequel, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, confirmed that all Marvel universes are connected and exist in some way, whether animated or live-action. For the Spider-Man side of things and the film's digital release, Sony put out a video explaining how all the Spider-People are connected.
