Retracing his steps to a mysterious underground lab, Miles discovers Peter Parker/Spider-Man ( Jake Johnson) trying to stop greedy crime boss Kingpin ( Liev Schreiber) from opening a hole in the space-time continuum, which could destroy New York. After he's accidentally bitten by a radioactive spider, Miles starts to experience changes he can't explain. SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE introduces viewers to 14-year-old Miles Morales (voiced by Shameik Moore), who's reluctantly enrolled in an elite New York City boarding school but would rather hang out with his Brooklyn friends. To stay in the loop on more movies like this, you can sign up for weekly Jake Johnson, Hailee Steinfeld, and Nicolas Cage co-star.

Characters flirt a little and occasionally use words like 'crap,' 'hell,' 'dang,' 'fat,' 'stupid,' and 'dumb.' But kids won't fail to notice the movie's Afro-Latino and Black main characters, plus clear messages about friendship, courage, mentoring, perseverance, teamwork, and (of course!) the nature of power and responsibility. ( Spoiler alert: One version of Spider-Man dies, as does an important supporting character.) There's also large-scale destruction, as well as frequent peril, suspense, and mortal danger. And while the violence is mostly cartoonish, there are lots of fights that involve weapons (including guns), injuries, and even death. It's sure to appeal to Spidey fans of all ages, and it's more tween friendly than the live-action wall-crawler movies, but it's still pretty intense. He becomes a new Spider-Man and ends up meeting other Spider-people from parallel universes. Parents need to know that Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is a funny, original, action-packed animated Marvel adventure that centers on Brooklyn teen Miles Morales (voiced by Shameik Moore).
