It is not exactly news now, as I am sure you have already
heard or seen it: Baby Mayday is coming to the big screen for the first
time in Sony’s Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. We have seen
snippets and glimpses of little Mayday in trailers for the movie, as
well seen some officially released concept art.
It seems the downtrodden Peter B. Parker who mentored
Miles Morales in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse reconciled
with the Mary Jane of his universe and the couple brought the little
bundle of joy into the wide world. From concept art we know that this depiction
of Mayday has heterochromia and red-hair. We got our first look at Mayday
last year around the release of the initial full trailer with
this colourful concept art:
In the YouTube Afterparty video following the full
trailer, in conversation with Hailee Steinfeld
Phil Lord and Chris
Miller had
this to say:
"Peter B. Parker is in a family way. Peter got back
with Mary Jane and they had a baby named Mayday. She has half spider-blood.
Parenting is hard enough when they don't have the ability to stick to
walls."
With the latest
trailers and tv spots we see more of the cutie Mayday, though I do
not believe we know who voices her just yet. I am not sure if this adorable
baby can talk, but she sure can ‘Coo!’ so someone’s providing those
vocalisations. Someone is getting paid to make baby noises, I wonder who?
I am very excited for this movie, and not just because of Peter
B. and Mary Jane’s bouncing, wall-crawling baby girl, either. The
original Into the Spider-Verse film set an exceptionally high bar that I hope this
first sequel can reach if not exceed.
Until I stop finding babies utterly adorable, which, let’s
face it, is impossible, I remain
frogoat
