Initial projections had estimated a more modest range of $80-90 million for the film’s opening weekend, making its actual performance all the more remarkable. The overwhelmingly positive reviews from critics and audiences alike have undoubtedly contributed to the film’s resounding success, with many proclaiming it as the finest installment and storytelling achievement in the modern era of Spider-Man.

This triumph is a testament to the collaborative efforts between Sony and Marvel, as they continue their fruitful partnership in bringing the beloved web-slinger to the big screen. Sony’s decision to retain partial rights to the Spider-Man franchise has been vindicated, with fans acknowledging that this arrangement has helped maintain the character’s grounded essence amid Disney’s grand ambitions within the superhero genre.

Moreover, the film’s genuine embrace of diversity has resonated deeply with audiences. Through the introduction of characters like Miles Morales, a Black and Puerto Rican Spider-Man, Across the Spider-Verse breaks barriers and expands the Spider-Man mythology in refreshing ways. The inclusion of various Spider-Men in the movie has been met with widespread acceptance, thanks to their established presence in the comic canon.
