The follow-up to the Oscar-winning Spiderman: Into the Spider-Verse is now available for home viewing with its digital release. This means fans can dive into the hidden gems and special appearances that helped make Across the Spider-Verse one of the best Spider-Man movies. One standout moment is Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man cameo, borrowed directly from the 2014 film, The Amazing Spider-Man. After The Direct shared a comparison of this cameo with its original scene, an editor from Spiderman: Across the Spider-Verse revealed the backstory behind it and the actor's inclusion in the final movie, and it’s pretty fascinating.
On Twitter, Andy Leviton discussed Garfield’s memorable cameo in the critically acclaimed animated feature. He explained that a mock-up version of the scene was first created to assess its audience reception. Interestingly, before it was officially approved for the scene to be included in the movie, the poignant moment where Peter comforts a dying Captain Stacy was retrieved by Leviton from a YouTube video and refined using After Effects. You can refer to the tweets below for a deeper look into the scene's making.
