Sony and Marvel are currently keeping mum on the Spider-Man 4 front, but the latest rumors point to be a big shake-up happening in the live-action Spider-Verse. One that’s either thrilling or awful depending on your point of view. Word has it that Miles Morales will finally be making his MCU debut in the film. On the one hand, that’s a good thing, as Miles is long overdue an appearance in the franchise.

Don’t make us relive the Infinity War pain all over again, Marvel!
