Spider-Man Into the Spider-verse was a game changer on many levels. The movie marked the first animated feature of the IP traversing through the multiverse—a concept it seamlessly executed before its live-action counterparts. It bagged an Academy Award for Best Animated feature given its brilliant character designs, animation, and storytelling, and most of all it gave fans an experience of a comic book come to life that was unanimously touted by fans and critics. Now fans of the franchise have a brilliant opportunity to see the movie live in concert as Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse Live in Concert makes its way into Kings Theater in NYC in March.

The movie’s official Twitter account released a clip giving a taste of what’s to come for the attendees. The minute-long clip sees the visuals of the movie set on the live background score performed by a multitude of artists. The live orchestra consists of a band, electronics, and turntables playing music from the score and soundtrack which enhances the viewing experience for the fans. The original music for the movie was composed by Golden Globe nominee Daniel Pemberton, who will be on hand for the world premiere concert in Brooklyn. Previously speaking of the performance the composer said, “I never thought we’d ever be able to actually reproduce it live. But somehow, we have. I always had a dream the first place this would ever be heard would be Miles’ home—Brooklyn.” He further, shared his excitement:

“I am ridiculously excited we get to perform the world’s very first Spider-Verse concert in the iconic borough where the story begins, bringing together on stage a full orchestra with the band, synths AND a set of turntables for the world premiere performance this March.”
