Deixis plays an important role in our language acquisition, a concept long associated by philosophers with ostensive definitions. This study aims to analyze the deixis present in the feature film titled Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse by Sony Pictures Entertainment using the deixis theory according to George Yule. Using deixis theory, this study utilizes 133 data points, consisting of 71 person deixis, 34 spatial deixis, and 28 temporal deixis. The most dominantly used deixis expression in the film ?Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is person deixis, with a total of 84 data points that most of it was referring to the main character, Miles Morales.
