What is The Spider Within: A Spider-Verse Story about?

“In the genre-bending thriller The Spider Within: A Spider-Verse Story, Miles Morales struggles to balance his responsibilities as a teenager, friend, and student while acting as Brooklyn’s friendly neighborhood Spider-Man,” the synopsis for the short film reads. “After a particularly challenging day living with these pressures, Miles experiences a panic attack that forces him to confront the manifestations of his anxiety and learn that reaching out for help can be just as brave an act as protecting his city from evil.”

The Spider Within: A Spider-Verse Story is directed by Jarelle Dampier, while Khaila Amazan wrote the script. Michelle Raimo-Kouyate and David Schulenburg produced the short, while Clara Chan served as VFX supervisor and Joe Darko as animation supervisor.

“Miles represents so many of us doing the best we can in our day-to-day lives,” Dampier previously said, via Variety. “We don’t often realize all that we’ve been through until our own body forces us to become aware of its experience. My intention is that The Spider Within can motivate deeper conversations amongst friends and family about their own mental health journeys — and I hope it feels like a love letter to those who adore Miles Morales.”

Sony Pictures Animation collaborated with the Kevin Love Fund to release The Spider Within: A Spider-Verse Story. The short film will be incorporated into a lesson plan from the Kevin Love Fund that “invites students to tell their own story through the lens of mental health awareness via an interactive curriculum including a creative storyboard activity.”
