Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Directors Talk Film’s Insane Process

- Though Sony’s Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is swinging into theaters on June 2, the directing trio still have their work cut out for them. Following the massive success of the first Oscar-winning film, Into the Spider-Verse, Kemp Powers, Justin K. Thompson, and Joaquim Dos Santos took the helm of what Thompson calls “the world's most expensive independent arthouse film” already equipped with the necessary skills to bring Miles Morales (Shameik Moore) and Gwen Stacy (Hailee Steinfeld) back in not one Multiverse-weaving sequel, but two. In their exclusive interview with Collider’s Steve Weintraub, the directors talk us through their unique and shared responsibilities, how they decided to break up cowriters Phil Lord and Chris Miller’s story with Beyond the Spider-Verse, and so much more.
Across the Spider-Verse begins “a year and a half later” after accepting the Spider-Man mantle, and Miles is now facing “more complex problems” as he juggles his life as Miles Morales and the responsibilities of Brooklyn’s Spider-Man. When Gwen Stacy returns to his dimension she takes Miles into the Spider-Verse, where Miguel O’Hara (Oscar Isaac) has formed a Spider Society tasked with protecting the Multiverse. On top of that, a bizarre new character has cropped up in Brooklyn, The Spot (Jason Schwartzman), and it just goes to show Spider-Man’s work is never done. The directors praise their enormous crew of animators who were constantly “experimenting and doing something new at all times” in order to bring this Spider-Verse to life. And with these hundreds of new characters comes a slew of new talent, like Academy Award-winner Daniel Kaluuya, Issa Rae, Andy Samberg, Karan Soni, and more.
In their interview, which you can watch or read below, Powers, Thompson, and Dos Santos answer all our questions about the shared responsibilities of three directors, how and why the story was split into two feature films, choosing the music, and how far along they are in recording for Beyond the Spider-Verse. Creating such “groundbreaking” story and visuals takes a super amount of talent and hard work, and they share some of those challenges, like last-minute changes to script, adding new Spider-People up to the very end, sneaking in Easter eggs, and how seemingly small moments, like Gwen’s hairstyle, can be costly.

I love Lord and Miller but I´m glad the directors of this film are having the spotlight as well. They deserve it.
Across The Spider-Verse is literally a perfect movie
In your opinion
@@naeuch0489 its not opinion its facts
Thanks for making a movie that’s so inspiring again. In a world where everything in entertainment seems to be repetitive, it’s nice to see something that looks like love and care was put into it
These men made a masterpiece
Great interview. I could listen to these 3 talk about the movie all day. I really hope they got the chance to do a director's commentary when the blue-ray/digital drops.
animation films, need to take things slow and take it easy, like regular animated films, toy story, ice age, up, finding Nemo and Madagascar, especially new animated films, like the Garfield movie
Beyond is definitely not coming next march, they gonna delay it
i wouldn't mind! take the time to make it better than ATSV and i'll watch it bi-annually forever
@@ProtossChad Absolutely
@@ProtossChadthese directors deserve the credit! Not lord and miller after what they did in the nightmarish production of the toxic work environment for overworking the animators by making them work full time on across the spider verse and that everybody quit the project!
I find it extremely odd that the first film had 3 totally different directors
Well, that's totally normal in animation indeed. Actually, I find interesting and odd when an animated movie has one director 😂
@@Kenny70912 you clearly didn't read what I said lol
Just shows how so much of this franchise is a team effort. From writers/producers Lord and Miller, to the artists who worked on the film.
I agree. I think it's important to note that unlike shows where Showrunners/writers have general creative control of the property, directors generally have the general creative control of their movie--however, for this franchise, the only constant is Phil Lord, so maybe Phil Lord/Chris Miller is behind the change of directors.
Animation is entirely a team sport. The director does alot of course, but storyboard artists and story teams and writers and producers and artists and of course the directors, everybody who has an idea has contributed to the story, not just Lord, Miller & Callaham. Justin K. Thompson was a production designer of the first film (basically of polishing its look), and now he's a director. No doubt that was because he did amazing work not just in the animation, but likely in the story department as well. I could see some of the music visualizations coming from Kemp Powers, who co-directed and wrote Pixar's Soul, or the kinetic action that Joaquim dos Santos brought to Avatar and Korra. It's a very dynamic trio, but they, neither Lord nor Miller, are the only captains of the ship, especially for a film where story, animation, dialogue, and sound are completely in sync like this.
You three should have done a regular running time, like 91 minutes.
but this film is like a comic film, but they should have turn it into a regular animated film, with realistic look and animation, a perfect score, more quite cast, wise story, and perfect film,
3:15 woah, miles is 15? i figured he would be 16 coming on 17 in this one
He's just starting high school in the 1st movie, so I guess it should've been apparent that he was around 13-14, then, but you're right it never clicked for me either.
And since this movie picks up about a year and a half later - yeah, he's 15.
🕸️🕷️🕸️🕷️
your running time is too much,
I prefer TMNT: mutant mayhem and the Super Mario Bros movie
