Fans of the web-slinging hero can rejoice as the Disney+ animated series, "Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man," has been renewed for both Season 2 and Season 3, showcasing Peter Parker's journey through his first year of high school. In an exciting revelation to The Movie Podcast, Brad Winderbaum, Marvel Studios' head of streaming, television, and animation, shared that scripts for Season 2 are complete and half of the animated storyboards are already finished, even though Season 1 is set to premiere on January 29. Moreover, Season 3 is also greenlit, signaling strong confidence in the series' future.
Winderbaum expressed his deep affection for the characters and the narrative crafted by lead writer and executive producer Jeff Trammell. He stated, "I've fallen so head over heels in love with these characters and I've now read all of the scripts for Season 2; we're halfway through the animatics. What [Trammell] is building brick by brick in this show starts to pay off." He emphasized how the emotional connection viewers develop with the characters in Season 1 will deepen in the subsequent seasons, promising a rewarding experience.
