Sony's other Spider-Manmovie is taking a big swing forward.
The studio has set Dopeand The Get Downstar Shameik Moore to voice Miles Morales in their animated Spider-Manproject, Mashablehas confirmed.
Also coming on board is Liev Schreiber (Ray Donovan), who'll voice the as-yet-unnamed villain.
SEE ALSO:Spider-Man spinoff 'Venom' coming in 2018, for real this time?First introduced in 2011, Miles Morales is a black Latino teenager who took over the Spider-Man mantle after the death of Peter Parker in the Ultimate timeline. When Marvel Comics ended the Ultimate imprint in 2015, Miles was integrated into the mainstream Marvel universe.
Or, the tl;dr version for those who can't be bothered with screwy comic-book continuity: there are two Spider-Men right now, and one of them is Miles Morales.
Your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.Credit: marvelFans quickly took to Miles Morales, and it wasn't long before readers began clamoring for a Miles Morales Spider-Manmovie. Alas, Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios opted to stick with Peter Parker when it came time to reboot the live-action franchise yet again, this time as part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
But earlier this year, Sony officially confirmed that their animatedSpider-Manfilm would be all about Miles Morales. Bob Perschietti and Peter Ramsey are co-directing the feature from a script by Phil Lord (The Lego Movie).
Sony's Spider-Man brand seems healthier right now than it has in years, thanks in a huge part to the studio's deal with Disney to bring the webslinger into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
And the studio is wasting no time capitalizing on that recent boost. In addition to this summer's Spider-Man: Homecomingand its unannounced-but-inevitable sequels, Sony is pressing on with films based on Venom and Black Cat and Silver Sable.
However, these films won't all exist within the same continuity. Only Spider-Man: Homecomingis part of the official Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Venom and Black Cat / Silver Sable films aren't technically spinoffs, because they're technically unrelated to the latest live-action iteration of Spider-Man.
The animated Spider-Manmovie, meanwhile, seems to exist in a completely different timeline altogether.
Moore can currently be seen in Netflix's 1970s drama The Get Down. But if you really want to know what he'd be like as Miles Morales, you might want to check out his breakthrough role in Dope, where he played an endearingly geeky high schooler.
The animated Spider-Manmovie will be in theaters December 21, 2018.
