Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (PG) + Panel Discussion

New Release ScreenTalk

Still from Spider-man 2022

Join us after the film, for an in-depth deep-dive into all things Spider-Verse. 

After reuniting with Gwen Stacy, Brooklyn’s full-time, friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man is catapulted across the Multiverse, where he encounters a team of Spider-People charged with protecting its very existence.

This panel discussion features Amon Warmann (Contributing Editor, Empire Magazine, in-person), Paul Taberham (Associate Professor, Arts University Bournemouth, via Zoom) and Tiffany Lam (Visual Development Artist on the film, via Zoom), who will discuss the significance of both Spider-Verse cinematic offerings. Was Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse responsible for the wave of multi-verse narratives that followed? Where does the animation style sit within the greater context of the history of animated film? And what was it like to work as an artist on this ground-breaking film? Barbican Curator Sonia Zadurian will host the panel. 

USA 2023 dir Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers, Justin K. Thompson
