Across The Spider-Verse’s’ Cruel Ending Has Fans Spitting Venom

Spoiler warning: The following article contains mild spoilers for the ending of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.

The directors of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse have gifted fans with arguably the most dynamic and spectacular animated superhero film of all time. The film debuted in theatres on June 2, 2023, and is expected to gross $80 million over its first weekend in the United States and Canada. The data show that there is far more interest in the sequel than there was in the Oscar-winning first film, which collected $35 million during its first weekend in 2018. Across the Spider-Verse is a masterpiece by all means, be it the thought-provoking script, universal themes, multiplicity of characters, or enthralling soundtrack.

Even though most fans left the halls satisfied with the best cinematic experience of their lives, viewers have taken to social media to explicitly express their frustration about the film’s ending. The 140 minutes of absolute thrill and excitement ends on a cliffhanger. The breathtaking, but abrupt ending has left fans in agonizing anticipation of what will happen next. Some have expressed their surprise over the ending in hilarious ways:

The magic that we witnessed is apparently only the first part of the planned adventure, which will be concluded with the forthcoming sequel Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse. The sequel is currently scheduled for a 2024 release (which might be delayed), but a year-long wait seems a little too long for fans’ hunger for Spider-Verse content. While fans are hopeful it will live up to all expectations, the shock is real, as one Twitter user expressed with a witty tweet:

But whether or not we liked it, Across the Spider-Verse has very much left us on a cliffhanger. The “To be continued” on the screen at the end of the movie left us all feeling happy, freaking, confused, and lonely at the same time (brownie points if you got the reference). All sorts of crazy reactions have been surfacing on social media waiting for Miles Morales, Gwen, Spider-Punk, and the huge ensemble of Spider-cameos to grace the big screen again. Here are some of the best fan reactions, with a huge shout-out to their creativity:

Now if you haven’t already, catch ‘Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse‘ exclusively in cinemas for an experience of a lifetime now.
