At last year’s Disney+ Day, a brand new Marvel Studios series, “Spider-Man: Freshman Year”, was announced, and today, during a special animation panel at the San Diego Comic-Con, some more details on the series were revealed.

The new animated series follows Peter Parker on his way to becoming Spider-Man in the MCU, starting with his freshman year of high school, of course. Peter’s journey in the series will be unlike we’ve ever seen and a style that celebrates the character’s early comic book roots.  The series takes place before the introduction of the character in “Captain America: Civil War”.

Jeff Trammell, writer and executive producer of “Spider-Man: Freshman Year” teased the show to the fans in attendance with the cast of characters, and Ryan Meinerding, head of visual development; showed off the new Spider-Man suit designed for the series — additionally, Paul F. Tompkins is set to voice a role in the show.

It was confirmed that “Spider-Man: Freshman Year” is coming to Disney+ in 2024.

During the panel, it was announced that viewers will also get to see Peter’s sophomore year, with the show being picked up for a second season, which will be called, “Spider-Man: Sophomore Year”.

Are you looking forward to this new “Spider-Man” series?
