Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Cuts Dialogue, Leaving Fans Confused and Upset

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse fans are unhappy about the changes made to the movie for its digital release, including the omission of one of the best lines teased in multiple trailers.

GamesRadar reports that the digital release of Across the Spider-Verse cuts a line of dialogue delivered by Miles Morales voice actor Shameik Moore in the scene where his character faces off against Miguel O'Hara, AKA Spider-Man 2099. The original moment sees Miles saying, "Nah, I'mma do my own thing," before declaring he's going home. The "going home" part is now missing from the movie.

Viewers are confused over why the movie keeps getting released with minor changes to its dialogue or animations, with people taking to X (formerly known as Twitter) to vent their frustrations. A common complaint is that one of the theatrical cuts, which some fans preferred, is now seemingly lost forever.

X user @chrisagwrites assembled a handy list of all the differences they spotted in the digital version of Across the Spider-Verse compared to the theatrical release. One of the dialogue cuts that caused quite a stir came from the scene where Spider-Gwen is frantically searching for Miles beneath the rubble in Mumbattan.

At least two versions of Across the Spider-Verse rolled out in theatres in June. Some people attributed the change between the cuts to the moment Sony Pictures swapped out the prints to fix sound issues after viewers complained about the sound mixing and having trouble hearing the dialogue over the music.

When the second chapter of the Spider-Verse saga hit digital storefronts, fans who downloaded the movie put out a PSA for which version of the film featured on the release, making it canon. However, several people who saw the alternative theatrical cut are still reeling from the changes and missing certain moments.

Even with multiple versions floating around, Across the Spider-Verse has received widespread critical acclaim, with IGN's own review calling it "a more-than-worthy follow-up to an all-time classic" that "surges with visual inventiveness and vibrance in an undeniably strong evolution of the style established in Into the Spider-Verse".
