I wonder how centered on spider-man culture characters will the new show be. That is, will there be guests from the Avengers and X-Men worlds, or just keep it to folks who are 99% associated with Spider-Man? I guess we'll have to see how it goes. I hope that guest characters are minimized, though. at this point, every show has quickly become a [I]greatest team-ups[/I] show.

I mean, we've got Nico Minoru as Peter's best friend. It seems like most of the supporting cast is made up of other heroes :p.
Disney is gutting a lot of the crew involved with this show. They are posting on Twitter. Incredibly sad. Rumors have begun that the show itself has been canned or it will only be a one season affair.

Cosmic Circus reports that Disney still plan on launching the show in fall 2024 and will take a 'wait and see' approach before committing to Sophomore Year
To think I felt confident about Disney animation if nothing else...

Makes you wonder if the x-men series is even safe

I quite liked their work on the Godzilla animated trilogy and Pacific Rim: The Black, but I'll be honest, this feels like a rather odd move. All the marketing has shown this to look 2D animated. Maybe it's going for a cell-shaded look, but it's still not the same. I'm also just not sure if they're quite the right fit for Spider-man. I guess time will tell.

Kinda wonder if stylized CGI with a hand-animation style (like the [I]Spider-Verse[/I] movies, [I]The Mitchells vs The Machines[/I], or the Meanader-animated Disney shorts ([I]Paperman[/I], [I]Far From the Tree[/I], etc.) are the future of 2-D animation.
Wonder if it was always meant to be 3D CGi or something changed

Wow disney continues to murder American Animation. How do you not preserve your own legacy with your biggest brands. I love anime but the style just doesn't fit our shows imo for the most part. Thank goodness WB animation still trying. The new animaniacs was entertaining.
Also disney doesn't have an in house animation team? I mean i studied animation so it's really jarring to read all that history and see where the state of American animation is. Wouldn't it even be cheaper to have a smaller focused internal team like video game studios do or is it really just "we can't spare anyone" and we just want this as cheap as possible. Why is an animation studio filling their platform with bargain bin animations.
It shows a lack of belief in the product imo. More like lets get a quick animation money grab and that's why most of their animations only last one season if that. There is no uniqueness in the "Get money" formula.
I can’t wait to see another iteration of Peter Parker in high school…………….ughhhhh
