Marvel's Spider-Man actor reaches out to young fan with special surprise

There are so many incredible games to look forward to next year but I’m going to hazard a guess that Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is going to be at the top of many people’s most-anticipated lists. The upcoming title from Insomniac Games will see Peter Parker and Miles Morales team-up and if leaks are to be believed, main missions will alternate between the two whilst players will be able to select their character for side missions and free roaming.

It’s also been teased that there may be a third playable character. Some are predicting that it could be Venom while others are convinced it’s Yuri. Either way, I’d imagine it’ll be a few months until Insomniac divulges any secrets. In the meantime, Spider-Man actor Yuri Lowenthal recently shared a super wholesome moment with a young fan.

Speaking of Marvel, a brand new trailer for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever released just yesterday. Take a look below.

You’ll be thrilled to know that it looks like Yuri Lowenthal is just as sweet as Peter Parker himself. Over on Twitter, writer and producer Bess Kalb recently tweeted about her son’s love of Spider-Man. She explained, “My three-year-old picking up a tiny Spider-Man figurine in the kid’s room of this Airbnb, his brow furrowed, he turns it over in his hand a few times, examining it. ‘What is it?’ he whispers to himself. He stares at it for a long time then whispers, his voice shakey: ‘I…love him.’”

Same, random kid. Well, Yuri spotted the tweet and responded writing, “If you’ve got an address to send stuff to, Spider-Man would love to send him his own Spider-Man.” Can you imagine how thrilled that kid is going to be? Fans soon started flooding in asking if this was an “offer open to all,” but as Yuri attests, “Even I don’t have that many Spider-Mans.” Fair.
