Bonjour #AnnecyFestival! It's only Day 1 and our Spidey Sense is already tingling. Watch this thread for updates directly from “Sony Pictures Animation Presents: ‘Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse,’” starting shortly! 🕷🧵

Take a breath and a leap of faith… Sony Pictures Animation Presents: "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" at #AnnecyFestival starts NOW.
First up, Sony Animation's SVP of Production Kevin Noel takes the stage at #AnnecyFestival to kick off our presentation.
Before we get into too much new stuff, @philiplord and @chrizmillr make a surprise (virtual) appearance to wow the #AnnecyFestival crowd with their extensive French vocabulary. They say words like “amuse-bouche” …
… and remind the crowd at #AnnecyFestival of the very first Across the #SpiderVerse teaser trailer we released late last year.
The rest of our filmmaking super team takes the #AnnecyFestival stage! Welcome, Directors Justin K. Thompson (@shinypinkbottle), Kemp Powers (@powerkeni), and Joaquim Dos Santos (@jds_247). The guys start off by diving deeper into the #SpiderVerse.
The #AnnecyFestival crowd is getting a glimpse at visual development and behind-the-scenes art of Gwen Stacy (voiced by @haileesteinfeld) and her world, Earth-65. Spoiler alert: Everything is beautiful. Think watercolors, layered brushstrokes, and paper textures.
As a treat #AnnecyFestival gets a sequence from the film! In this clip, we find Gwen's dad, George Stacy (voiced by Shea Whigham), a "by the books cop," responding to a disturbance at the Guggenheim Museum. Of course, Gwen beats him to the scene, where she's met with new faces…
This Across the #SpiderVerse clip might be over, but the #AnnecyFestival crowd is still reeling!!!
In that Across the #SpiderVerse clip we saw: An anachronistic version of The Vulture (voiced by @jormataccone), our old friend Spider-Man 2099 (voiced by Oscar Isaac), and the incomparable (and pregnant!) Jessica Drew aka Spider-Woman (voiced by @issarae). #AnnecyFestival
Onto Spider-Man 2099 art. Unlike other Spideys, Miguel O'Hara wasn’t bitten by a radioactive bug and doesn't have Spidey Sense. But with advanced tech and his own prowess, he's got super strength! wall-climbing claws! a giant laser web! a flying wing-suit!! #AnnecyFestival
Much like Gwen in the clip, the #AnnecyFestival audience is in awe of Jessica Drew aka Spider-Woman! We're seeing more of her character through expression sheets and visual development. She’s a certified badass.
Now, for the reason we're all here, the heartbeat of our #SpiderVerse, the one and only Miles Morales (voiced by Shameik Moore)! He's grown up a bit and is learning to balance school life with home life with hero life. He's also got a new suit and Spidey symbol. #AnnecyFestival
Time to drop in on Miles in this next clip for the #AnnecyFestival crowd to see what he's been up to.
In our second Across the #SpiderVerse clip we shared with the #AnnecyFestival audience, Miles is running late for a meeting between him, his parents, and school counselor (voiced by @TheRealDratch).
Miles has a ton on his mind from getting into the school of his dreams, to keeping his city safe, to being a good son to his parents. It’s a lot! Not to mention… something seems to be setting off his Spidey Sense… 🤔 #AnnecyFestival
Meet The Spot, Miles Morales's most formidable foe yet, as debuted at #AnnecyFestival. He is voiced by Jason Schwartzman. 🕳 See him in action in Spider-Man: Across the #SpiderVerse, in theaters June 2, 2023.
Spot's whole body is covered in interdimensional portals (made to feel like "living ink") that can send him anywhere he wants to go. He can also make these portals appear out of thin air to transport objects and people at will. This spells trouble for Miles… #AnnecyFestival
And with that, the time has come for our Across the #SpiderVerse filmmakers to bid the stage adieu. Thanks for following along on these #AnnecyFestival updates. More on our other upcoming projects later this week!
