“The thing that was interesting for us is that it evolved,” Rothman explained and added. “We recorded it a year ago and it was not that long after his wife [Joan B. Lee] had passed away. We had revisions that tried a little harder to be funnier and tried a little harder to be harder. What ended up in the movie were the lines that had the most meaning to him.”

Also, in the original script of the movie Spider-Verse, the pivotal line which Stan Lee has spoken was also different as while giving the costume to Miles he was meant to say, “Never fits” but it was changed by the makers to “It always fits…eventually” as we saw in the movie.

It has been revealed by Rothman that the idea behind that scene was that he only wants to say something encouraging enough to Miles in order to put the suit on as he said, At the moment, he has to deliver just enough to get that kid to put the suit on.”

“The movie was not very forgiving. When it wasn’t working, you could feel it and it was painful,” Rothman added. “About a year ago, we had a bunch of emotional tent poles that were fundamentally working. But then there were a bunch of scenes where it felt like there was only one way to make it and we had to find that way.”

“This was all about being selfless because we’re all heroes, but also the one guy who wouldn’t die as a result of staying behind [Miles] can’t do the job,” said co-director Bob Persichetti. “And it was great because now we were in a really cool predicament. And we could push forward.”

There are still a lot of people who didn’t see this movie and for them, I feel really sorry because the movie not just has a good storyline but also have a lot of stars. Shameik Moore is portraying the role of Miles Morales, Hailee Steinfeld is portraying the character of Gwen Stacy, Mahershala Ali is in the role of Aaron Davis (Uncle of Miles), Lily Tomlin in the character of May Parker who is Pete’s Aunt, and many more.
