Marvel has released a brief teaser for its upcoming animated series Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man.
The footage starts off by showing off the Spider-Man float at Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, to celebrate his and Marvel’s roots in New York, the home of Marvel and its 85-year comic book history.
It then cuts to footage of Spider-Man from the series as he’s live-streaming. We also hear a little bit of the classic 1960s theme song but with a modern twist.
A full trailer still hasn’t been released so this is the first footage that’s officially been released. The animation in the series is inspired by the Steve Ditko style of comic book art, and the series takes place before 2016’s Captain America: Civil War, but with a noticeable key difference.
“Rather than coming home to his apartment to see Tony Stark in his home, it’s none other than Norman Osborn who’s chatting up his Aunt May when he walks through the door.
“And much like how meeting Tony thrust Peter into a spotlight larger than the kid needed, Peter having Norman as his mentor ‘sends his life in an unexpected trajectory that collides him with many unexpected characters in the Marvel universe.”
Jeff Trammell is the Head Writer of the series and he shared some insights into what fans can expect from the series.
“You know, I want to give a cliche, ‘Expect the unexpected’ answer but, honestly, I think you can expect Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man. He’s hanging around New York; it’s not a huge intergalactic adventure.”
“It’s him at his roots and there are a lot of things we, as a fanbase, take at first glance and are like, ‘Oh yeah, I know this part of the story.’ That’s been really fun to dig into: ‘Maybe you don’t know everything.’ There are some surprises in there and I’m really excited to dig into those. It was really fun to subvert those expectations when they’ve been built up for so long,” Tramell added.
Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man premieres on Disney+ on January 29, 2025.
