Jake Johnson Uncertain About Peter B. Parker's Role in Spider-Man: Beyond The Spider-Verse

The actor expresses willingness to transition his character to live-action only if Spider-Verse directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller are involved.

Jake Johnson, the voice actor for Peter B. Parker in the Spider-Verse animated films, has expressed his reluctance to transition his character to live-action unless the project involves the Spider-Verse directors, Phil Lord and Chris Miller.
Johnson's character, Peter B. Parker, is a central figure in the animated Spider-Verse films, serving as a mentor and close friend to the protagonist, Miles Morales.
Despite the success of the Spider-Verse films, Johnson has not yet recorded any dialogue for the upcoming sequel, Spider-Man: Beyond The Spider-Verse, and is uncertain about his character's role in the film.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, the second film in the series, became Sony Pictures Animation's highest-grossing film, earning a worldwide total of $690.5 million.
Johnson's next project is Self Reliance, a comedy thriller film which he wrote, directed, and stars in, premiering on Hulu on January 12, 2024.
