Lamorne Morris Suited Up as Spider-Noir? Plus Season 2 Teases!

Forget what you thought you knew about supporting characters! Lamorne Morris, the voice behind Spider-Noir's Robbie Robertson, dropped a bombshell: he actually donned "the Spider" suit in the season finale. This wasn't just a voice performance; Morris physically wore the iconic outfit, a shocking twist for fans of the gritty, Great Depression-era series.

Spider-Noir, Amazon's atmospheric animated detective saga, stars Nicolas Cage as a world-weary Ben Reilly, a private investigator navigating a corrupt 1930s New York. Morris's Robbie begins as a struggling freelance journalist, hustling to get back to the Daily Bugle. But his arc took an unexpected turn, culminating in a daring act of impersonation to protect Reilly. Morris admitted it blew his mind, having previously joked about playing Spider-Man for years on Instagram. Talk about manifesting your destiny! His daughter even declared, "You're the Spider," distinguishing his character from the classic web-slinger.

The finale also saw Robbie achieve a major victory, establishing his own newspaper, The Harlem Herald. Morris views this as a truly heroic moment. In a time of widespread despair, Robbie's journalism empowers citizens, making him a "superhero in his own right" even without enhanced abilities.
