The new movie picks up where the first one left off, with Miles Morales catching up with his fellow Spider-pal Gwen Stacy.

However he is soon transported into the Multiverse - a place where thousands of different universes connect - where he meets a team of Spider-People who are charged with protecting its existence.

Together with this new crew, Miles must work to help stop a mysterious new villain who could disrupt the entire Multiverse.
