"Science. Art. Film." screening & discussion of "Spider-man: Into the Spider-Verse"

Presented by ANU College of Science

Brooklyn teenager Miles Morales (Shameik Moore) becomes Spider-Man after a radioactive spider bite. With the villainous Kingpin (Liev Schreiber) threatening chaos across realities, Morales must overcome his self-doubt and join forces with Spider-People from other dimensions, including a down-on-his-luck Peter Parker (Jake Johnson) and the determined Spider-Gwen (Hailee Steinfeld).

Winner of the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature in 2019, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse has been acclaimed as one of the most inventive superhero movies in years.
