Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is swinging into theaters very soon, and, while we know that Miles Morales will be going up against multiverse-traversing villain the Spot in the sequel, there's another fi💛gure standing in his way.
Perhaps surprisingly, the first two trailers for the movie put less emphas🌄is on the rivalry between the Spot and Miles, and more on the tension and fighting between Miles and the leader of the Spider-Society, Miguel O'Hara (Oscar Isaac), who is being teed up as an enemy.
He's also known as Spider-Man 2099, a futuristic version of Spider-Man who was not bitten by a radioactive spider but built a super-suit himself. He doesn't stick to walls but climbs them using claws that ca🌳n rip through metal; he doesn't have a Spider-Sense but he does have fangs and a toxin that he injects into people. He's a different proposition to Peter Parker altogether.
"Miguel definitely becomes an antagonist to Miles, but his goals are very understandable," co-director Kemp Powers tells 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:SFX magazine in the new issue, featuri♊ng Star Trek: Strange New Worlds on the cover. "Some people might side with꧙ Miles's perspective, but some people might side with Miguel's.
"You know, Miguel is the leader of this Spider-Force for a reason," Kemp continues. "He bears this incredible sense of responsibility. Spider-Man has always been your friendly🐠 neighbourhood Spider-Man, and Miguel is very different in that his responsibilities go way beyond any one neighbourhood. He's just a fascinating character, but he's not a villain. He's a good guy."
For his part, Shameik Moore, voice of Miles, says his character "is heartbroken by Miguel. He's like, 'Dude, I jusꦦt wanted to be a part of your society, I'm the coolest Spider there is. But, if you want to be like that, then be like that, you're not gonna stop m൲e.'"
