During our Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse interview with Directors Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey, Rodney Rothman, we were given a glimpse into the filmmaking process.
The story of Miles Morales as Spider-Man had a special appeal, especially for kids today, that the directors wanted to share with audiences.
While Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is a “coming of age” story, that experience is very different for kids growing up now versus several decades ago.
It’s a giant, big metaphor for coming of age and trying to turn it into a coming of age that takes place in 2018.
