Marvel Entertainment announced that Spider-Man has been renewed for a second season later this year. The second season will follow Peter Parker during his sophomore year at Horizon High School while continuing his battle against Doctor Octopus, Sinister Five, and Hobgoblin.

Senior Vice President of Programming and General Manager of Disney XD said, "We're proud of our partnership with Marvel Animation and look forward to premiering more adventure storytelling, through the lens of some of the world’s most prominent Super Heroes, for years to come."

President of Marvel Entertainment Dan Buckley said, "We are tremendously proud of our animated series on Disney XD. We look forward to continuing our relationship with them including fresh new seasons of Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy: Mission Breakout, Marvel's Avengers: Black Panther's Quest, and Marvel's Spider-Man which will air through 2019. As we continue to produce in the animation space, we are constantly looking to expand our footprint with projects such as the highly-anticipated Marvel Rising, and a second season of Marvel Super Hero Adventures. Additionally, we are pleased with the continual growth of Marvel HQ on YouTube Kids, which features library favorites and premiere episodes of Marvel Super Hero Adventures and the Marvel Funko animated shorts, as well as upcoming original content."

The series will join Guardians of the Galaxy and Avengers Assemble for new seasons. This does not necessarily dispel the report that all three series are ending, given the amount of time it takes to produce a single episode.
