An insider has revealed that all prints of the film have been updated
Sony Pictures has released an updated version of the film to theaters after complaints from fans about sound mixing issues in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.
The complaints mainly focused on low audio levels during the opening scene, which centers around Hailee Steinfeld's Spider-Woman character, Gwen Stacy.
While the problem was limited to a few theaters, a source close to the movie revealed to Variety that all prints of the film have been updated, which is not uncommon for distributors to do if the opportunity arises.
Writer-producer Phil Lord commented on the issue during the opening weekend, suggesting a solution on Twitter and recommending viewers to ensure the theater volume for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is set to the reference level of 7.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is the second installment focused on Miles Morales, a teenager from Brooklyn who gains superpowers after being bitten by a radioactive spider.
The sequel Morales' encounters with several web-slinging heroes across dimensions. Directed by Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers, and Justin K. Thompson, the film had a successful opening weekend, grossing $120.5 million.
