SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE introduces viewers to 14-year-old Miles Morales, who's reluctantly enrolled in an elite New York City boarding school but would rather hang out with his Brooklyn friends. After he's accidentally bitten by a radioactive spider, Miles starts to experience changes he can't explain. Retracing his steps to a mysterious underground lab, Miles discovers Peter Parker/Spider-Man trying to stop greedy crime boss Kingpin from opening a hole in the space-time continuum, which could destroy New York. (Spoiler alert!) Spider-Man is mortally wounded, but Kingpin's experiment results in another Peter Parker (this one older and more haggard) from a parallel universe showing up and bumping into Miles, who asks him for mentorship and advice. Together they encounter four more "Spider-people," including teenage Gwen Stacy , an anime-style girl from the distant future, a cartoon pig , and a black-and-white 1930s noir Spider-Man . After getting over their shock, everyone understands they must work as a team to defeat Kingpin and return to their own universes.
