EXCLUSIVE: Look out, here comes the Spider-Man.

Leading up to its Dec. 14 release, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse will receive an extra $115M promotional boost from an array of global brands, making it one of Sony’s largest in the studio’s history, up there with Spider-Man: Homecoming which counted a $140M value. Spider-Verse also outstrips the recent $80M global brand promo of Universal/Illumination’s The Grinch.

Typically brands at this time of year seek to capitalize on Christmastime to drive sales, but the fact that they’re partnering with Spider-Man speaks to his commercial power, arguably up there with Star Wars.

“This is taking Spider-Man to a new level. The film has a revolutionary hero in Miles Morales and a unique and groundbreaking style of animation to match – so it mandated a campaign that complements the film’s originality and creativity,” explains Jeffrey Godsick, Sony’s EVP of Worldwide Partnerships and Brand Management about the promo campaign.
