Entertainment Weekly spoke to star Shameik Moore, star of the upcoming and highly anticipated animated Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse.
Moore discussed taking on the role of Miles Morales in his long-awaited cinematic debut - here's what he had to say:
This power is kind of handed to [Miles] when he’s not really looking for more responsibility. That phrase — ‘with great power comes great responsibility’ — it means the same thing, but it comes from a different place with this Spider-Man.
Everybody has a purpose and a reason and a place. I think that’s what [Miles’s] conflict is — finding his place. He’s like, ‘If there’s Peter, then how do I be Spider-Man? Can you teach me? How do I do this?’
Entertainment Weekly also debuted a cool, new shot of one of the film's villain - which you can see above. The pic demonstrates the film's intriguing art style and gives us one of our best looks at the unique interpretation of the sinister character.
What do you think about Moore's comments? Are you excited to see this hulking version of the Green Goblin when Into The Spider-Verse debuts in December?
Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse arrives in theatres on December 14th.
