What Spoilers Could Spider-Verse 2 Be Hiding?

Given the endless possibilities of the Multiverse, there are many potential surprise appearances that might happen in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.

Spider-Verse 2's international trailer already highlighted the three main live-action Spider-Men (Tom Holland, Tobey Maguire, and Andrew Garfield), leading to speculation from fans that the trio could make a surprise comeback in the sequel. 

However, stars Shameik Moore, Hailee Steinfeld, and Issa Rae played coy about the trio's appearance in a past interview, even with Steinfeld promising that "there [are] some treats" for fans in the sequel.

In fact, Sony producer Amy Pascal told Empire last March that Holland "does love these [Spider-Verse] movies," though she can't comment on any cameo prospects for the character.

Moreover, another spoiler that marketing has potentially spoiled is the tragic death of Jefferson Davis, aka Miles Morales' father. It's possible that Sony Pictures wants this specific plot point to be kept a secret ahead of the sequel's theatrical release. 

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will premiere in theaters on Friday, June 2.
