The Penguin star Rheny Feliz recently expressed his interest to play Miles Morales in a potential live-action project.
Following the successes of the Spider-Verse animated films, there have been rumors for the past few years that Sony is developing the long-awaited live-action Miles Morales movie.
So far, no confirmation has been made yet about the project, but fans have been excited about the prospect of seeing Miles Morales in live-action and suggested actors who could potentially play the iconic character.
Rheny Feliz Wants to Play Miles Morales in Live-Action Project
In a recent interview, Feliz opened up about the possibility of playing Miles Morales in a live-action project.
He expressed his interest in playing the iconic superhero if he ever gets an opportunity to get cast in the movie.
"There's a lot to explore there, live-action wise. I think that I share some characteristics with the guy, and so I'd love to give that a shot," The Penguin star said.
Considering that he is an Afro-Latino actor, has experience working on a comic book project, and has shown impressive acting talent, there is no doubt that he would be qualified for the role.
However, it might take a while before the project ends up getting greenlight since it might still be in early development at this point and they might wait for the Spider-Verse trilogy to finish first.
Thanks to the animated films, Miles Morales has become part of the pop culture consciousness and there is a lot of potential for its jump to live-action once it happens at some point.
For now, let's wait and see whether the project will happen in the near future, but with the success of the Spider-Verse franchise and the character's recent comics runs, it is starting to look more likely than ever.
