Fans may soon find Miles Morales, the beloved protagonist of the animated "Spider-Verse" films, swinging by the Marvel Cinematic Universe!
Morales is set to make his live-action debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), according to Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige.
In an interview, Feige indicated that the studio intends to introduce Spider-Man's Black alter ego in a live-action appearance in a future film; however, only after he is done with saving the world in the Sony Pictures' animated trilogy.
The final film in the animated franchise, “Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse”, is set to hit theatres on June 18, 2027.
"The good news is, Sony has the ‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse’ series, which are very popular and excellent, and ‘Beyond the Spider-Verse’ is coming out next year. But yes, we definitely have plans for a live-action Miles, and I think a live-action ‘Spider-Man’ movie has this destiny: to add Miles sometime after the ‘Spider-Verse’ series ends," Feige said in a recent interview.

Following Morales' big-screen debut in “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse”, the character appeared in 2023's “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse”. Shameik Moore reprises his voice role as the Marvel web-slinger in the upcoming film.
It will show Miles trapped in an alternate universe and on the run while trying to save his family.
Referring to Tom Holland starrer “Spider-Man: No Way Home”, when Jamie Foxx's Electro teased, "Somewhere there's bound to be a Black Spider-Man", Feige further continued, "Audiences around the world were thrilled because they knew it might be a hint at Spider-Man Miles."
"We've been thinking and discussing more Spider-Man adventures, regardless of agreements or contracts. My production partner, Amy Pascal, is already working on it, and we've had in-depth discussions about what the next two, three, four, and five Spider-Man movies might be about," he added.
In the meantime, Tom Holland's Peter Parker is also returning for the much-awaited “Spider-Man: Brand New Day”, which is set to hit theatres on July 31.
