How many Spider-People are there in the multiverse?

It is not known at this time how many appearances Spider-Man will make in the animated adventure, although producer Chris Miller has stated that “between the journeys through the universe, there are 240 unique characters … but it’s mostly minor or background characters.” Of these unique characters, it was recently confirmed that the number of named characters in the film is less than 100.

But I think last I checked it was around 280. To be clear, these aren’t specific, unique characters that you might recognize, but variations. But if you are just talking about named characters, I think there are about 95 of them.

said co-director Justin Thompson.

In reference to the film’s scale, Across the Spider-Verse will also feature six unique animation styles for each dimension.

Several other Spider-variants have also been revealed in promotional material released for the film, including Doppelganger, Otto Octavius/Superior Spider-Man, Julia Carpenter/Spider-Woman, Mary Jane Watson-Parker/Spinneret, and Anna-May Parker/Spiderling. Are included. ,
