Donald Glover(aka Childish Gambino)is set to provide the voice for Marvel’s world famous web-slinger in the third season of Disney XD’s animated series, “Ultimate Spider-Man.” To clarify, he won’t be portraying Peter Parker…but he will play Miles Morales, a character who replaces Parker in the comics(and was actually inspired by Glover after he campaigned to get the live-action Spider-Man role before ultimately losing out to Andrew Garfield). During an interview with USA Today, Glover mentioned that he still wants to play the legendary character in a live action format. He stated, “I still have hopes to do something like that one day. I don’t look at this as second place. Spider-Man, he’s such an icon. You have to do something with him.”
Below is a sneak peek.
