Can't imagine someone else playing Miles. He was honestly a perfect cast.

Agreed

Definitely

Agreed man

To old for that now

the guy from the insomniac games??

Bro wanted to be miles and became the best miles adaptation That is something not many people can say

[@mrcooshie8436]

Insomnia spider better

[@FutonFlex]

@@mrcooshie8436 definitely not. I understand that your comment is a subjective statement... but at the same time you can't deny that Insomniac Miles Morales's voice actor was shoddy at times. He lacks a lot of emotion in his delivery

[@mrcooshie8436]

@@FutonFlex I respect ur opinion but not really he’s an amazing va

[@keysmash_roa]

​@@FutonFlexprobably to do with the fact that he might have just gotten the lines and no context

Honestly, he put Miles Morales on the map for me.

[@hipking23]

Same here

[@user-wx2ug7jw3s]

yeah, I knew about him but only a bit he revealed him to me.

[@mochii813]

While I'm not a fan I will say his voice is iconic

[@CaptainRockoBD]

Goes to show how many people just don’t read comic books. He’s been around since 2011.

[@shady8261]

​@TheToyNerdNinja much better? He's whiney as fuck! I seriously can't bare Miles's voice in these games

[@matienazemy1382]

When I heard Beyond The Spiderverse will be the last time we’ll see of Miles, I got a bit sad. The character of Miles and Shameik’s voice acting as Miles is done so perfectly. Miles Morales really has become one of my favorite movie characters of all time, mostly thanks to Shameik.

[@Davistobor]

never say never, maybe we'll get a live action adaptation. plus the games have done him pretty well. I think spiderverse is for miles what the raimi trilogy was for peter. he'll be in lots of media for the next decade or so.

[@davidjuniorleon6650]

For real😢

[@scruffd0g193]

He is Miles, he fits the character so well. All the voice actors do.

[@didistone8482]

I'm not a fan Nadji voice acting (and I don't think it's his fault). Hopefully Spider-man 2 it's a lot better

[@Motherofdragons4780]

That's so true! None of them are better than the others, they all just bring something special to Miles! When I think of Miles I hear Nadji's voice in my head, but that doesn't mean there's anything wrong with Shameik as Miles!

[@Motherofdragons4780]

@@didistone8482I think Nadji is great as Miles, but when he's not with Peter I feel like something is missing. He's not very good with his quips and I hope that gets better.

[@didistone8482]

@@Motherofdragons4780 I think if we get to hear more of Nadji's natural voice, I'd like it but I don't understand why he has to be so high pitch. I heard Nadji's natural voice and he sounds really good.

[@Motherofdragons4780]

@@didistone8482 Well of course his voice is a little higher, he's 15. In Spider-Man 2 Nadji was able to use more of his normal voice because Miles is graduating High School. I was a little shocked to hear his normal voice too, but I think it's cool that he made his voice a little higher for a younger Miles. He was also in the 2017 Spider-Man TV show and did the same voice for a younger Miles. 😁

[@Ghostface4045]

Phil Lord and Chris Miller actually casted Shameik because they missed out on working with him in Star Wars: Solo, which Shameik had auditioned for young Lando but didn’t get the part, and they loved his energy so much that they desperately wanted to work with him on another project so he was their first choice to play Miles.

[@shamrawq5283]

Thats crazy that Childish Gambino got the part, another Miles Morales per se and actually a big reason for miles cone uppance

[@Motherofdragons4780]

He would've been a great young Lando!

[@didistone8482]

The best version of Miles I've ever seen.

[@kaydee1485]

A couple of things to add, Shameik wrote he was going to Miles in his journal before it manifested. he was asked for a voice sample as a reference and for testing. He was asked only a short while after his movie, Dope, came out (weeks to months later, but not years) and was finally publicized as the lead in early 2017.

[@galaxystudios5642]

i remember before spider verse was announced i wanted him to play miles in live action and i also remember being mind blown when he was cast as him in spider verse back in 2017

[@sierrasavagee]

I still can’t believe i went to elementary school with this dude! He was a few grades above me but im always so proud 😊❤

[@AshkanKetanji]

It’s already confirmed- I’ll be bringing miles too life, live action across the Spidey-Verse

[@realamericannegro977]

Looks like the artist saw him and based Miles off his likeness. He even looks more like Miles than the PS4 Miles.

[@Tim0chiii]

I still remember when was in Nick Cannon's tv show and he had energy. When Dope came out, lord what a turnaround and also what a story it was. Now he's playing as Spiderman. What a journey

[@yvonne3582]

I don’t know how the universe landed two perfect Miles Morales, Shameik Moore and Nadji Jeter. I’ve met Nadji in person and he’s just such an awesome person, he was so nice and friendly to my nephew that had recognized him.

[@didistone8482]

I personally don't find Nadji's voice as good as Moore's. I mean I know he can be better it's just the voice direction they gave him is not good at all, in my opinion.

[@loveyourself9017]

That's so cool

[@Motherofdragons4780]

Into the Spider-Verse is my first experience with Miles, and Shameik did a great job voicing him! I just hope in Beyond the Spider-Verse Shameik's and Nadji's Miles will meet each other! I think it will be nice for Shameik's Miles to see that he's not alone, and there's another Miles out there!

Damn I never knew he looked that close to the comic version of miles.
