The 2 hours 16 minutes run time felt like mere seconds, as it featured different variations of Spider-Man in the multiverse, as well as including great soundtracks, Spider-Man 2099’s iconic theme, and the celebrated dialogue “it was a canon event,” adding to the film’s popularity. However, the film ended with a massive cliffhanger, and right from coming out of the theatre fans are excited to watch Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, but it looks like they have to wait a little longer to see the third sequel.

While promoting the new season of Apple TV+’s The After Party, Phil Lord, and Chris Miller gave an exclusive interview to Comicbook, where they talked about the possible delay of Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, and that they are “going to take the time necessary” to build the perfect movie, which the fans have loved so much.

“I would say that just like we’re going to take the time necessary to make Beyond the Spider-Verse great,” Lord said before Miller concluded their answer. “And we won’t back into a release date that doesn’t fit.”
