The Spider-Man universe is expanding in a big way, with multiple live-action and animated projects in development, spanning theatrical releases, streaming series, and spin-offs focused on fan-favorite characters.

According to People, here’s a full breakdown of the six major Spider-Man projects currently in the works:

The most immediate release is Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which brings back Tom Holland as Peter Parker alongside Zendaya. Set after the events of No Way Home, the film explores Peter’s life after the world forgets his identity, with new challenges emerging as his powers begin to change. The movie is slated to hit theaters on July 31, 2026.

Another major project is Spider-Noir, starring Nicolas Cage. The live-action series follows a darker, detective-style version of Spider-Man and will debut in May 2026, with both black-and-white and color versions available.

On the animated side, Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse will serve as the final chapter in the critically acclaimed Spider-Verse trilogy. The film is currently set for release in June 2027 and is expected to deliver a major, emotional conclusion to Miles Morales’ story.

Several spin-offs are also in development, expanding the universe beyond Peter Parker. These include an animated Spider-Punk project centered on Hobie Brown, with Daniel Kaluuya involved creatively, though a release date has not yet been announced.

Another fan-favourite character getting the spotlight is Spider-Gwen, with Hailee Steinfeld expected to reprise her voice role as Gwen Stacy. The project is reportedly in active development.

Rounding out the slate is an animated Venom movie, with Tom Hardy attached as a producer. The film will explore one of Spider-Man’s most iconic antiheroes in a new format.

Together, these projects highlight Sony and Marvel’s ongoing effort to build a sprawling Spider-Man universe across multiple formats and characters, ensuring that the web-slinger’s world continues to grow far beyond a single storyline.
