LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Sony Pictures Animation is set to release the sequel to 'Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse', and we'll get to know what's next in the story of Miles Morales and his spidey buddies from other spider-verses. While there is still no news on whether the production would ever get their hands on creating a live-action film about this animated movie, the voice artist who plays Miles Morales has actually made his ideas known about playing Miles Morales in the live-action movie. Shameik Moore is an American actor, singer, and rapper. He is best known for voicing Miles Morales' Spider-Man in the movie 'Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse' and its upcoming sequels.

In a recent interview with Empire, Moore revealed "everyone knows" that he should be the one playing Miles Morales if ever the production thinks of taking the film into the live-action world.

'I think Tom Holland knows'

Talking to Empire, Shameik Moore shared his thoughts about playing Miles Morales and how everyone thinks he is best suited for the role, "I feel like everyone knows I would be a great [live-action] Miles Morales. As I left the theatre after that premiere, Jamie Foxx looked at me like… he knew. I think Tom Holland knows, too," Moore revealed. "It just depends on how old they want Miles to be by the time they're ready to do a live-action movie. That's the conundrum with whether or not I end up playing him."

When Tom Holland was asked if he would love to star in a live-action 'Spider-Verse' movie, he shared, "[Producer] Amy actually asked me on the set of [Spider-Man: No Way Home] and no one has come back to me." "I wanna be in them. Yeah, I love those movies," he added.
