Oscar Isaac, Issa Rae, Daniel Kaluuya, and Jason Schwartzman are among those who have been added to the Oscar-winning animated show, but there's one casting addition Sony Pictures is keeping under the cloak of secrecy. This is the Scarlet Spider, a character who comic book enthusiasts among you will know is Peter Parker's clone, Ben Reilly.
Speaking to Total Film, director Joaquim Dos Santos said, "I can't wait for people to hear who voices him. It still hasn't been released yet, but I'm awestruck by the character of our Scarlet Spider actor."
It's not outside the possibility it could be that Scarlet Spider will be used as a chance to offer Tom Holland, Tobey Maguire or Andrew Garfield a voice cameo. However, it sounds like Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will have a bigger cameo than whoever performs the Spider-Man clone...
Miles Morales returns for the next installment of the Oscar-winning Spider-Verse saga, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. After reconnecting the two with Gwen Stacy, Brooklyn's full-time neighborhood's friendly Spider-Man is launched across the Multiverse and is confronted by a team of Spider-People charged with protecting its very existence.
But when the heroes clash on how to face the new danger, Miles finds himself pitted against the other Spiders and must redefine what is an hero in order to save those he loves most.
It's Earth Day, an annual event that is meant to bring attention to global issues and encourage the necessary steps to safeguard the environment. Yet, Sony Pictures Animation is also using it as an occasion to announce Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, which takes place on multiple Earths. On Twitter, the official Spider-Verse account celebrated Earth Day by releasing four new images from the movie and each image highlights the different Earth.
The first image takes place in Earth-1610, residence of Miles Morales. If you glance at the lower right corner, you will see Miles and Gwen having a flip moment.
