Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is all set to release this year. And Marvel fans from all over the world, including the tennis arena, are anticipating the release of the movie with bated breath. Recently, the creators of the animated feature devised a parallel universe called the Spider-Verse and portrayed what some of the famous people from the real world might look like in that alternate reality.

However, among those well-known personalities who made their way into the parallel universe is the American tennis legend, Serena Williams, who herself is a huge Spider-Man fan.

The movie’s recent social media move is gathering a lot of attention among fans, and not just Marvel fans. In a recent sequence of tweets, Sony Pictures’ official Twitter account offered Spider-Man avatars to several celebrities, including different actors, musicians, comedians, and tennis and soccer players. What certainly caught everyone’s attention was the avatar of Serena Williams as a spiderwoman. The former world number one’s look of her parallel universe avatar represented her fearless aura and her amazing style.

She had an all-black look and had her hair tied up in a pony, and it is safe to say that tennis fans will definitely fall in love with her superhero looks. Not only that, the former tennis player is a massive fan of Marvel and admires Spider-Man himself.
