Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse – Nicolas Cage Is Not Returning

There were a lot of awesome characters in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, and the voice talent they pulled to voice those characters made things even better. One of those great pulls was Nicolas Cage as Spider-Noir. At the end of the movie, all of the respective Spider-People go back to their own universes, but we know that some of them are returning for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, but not all of them. ScreenRant recently got the chance to catch up with Cage and asked if he is returning to voice the role; right now, he doesn't know anything.

"You'd have to ask Sony. I don't know what's going on with that," Cage explained. "No one's spoken to me about that. Ask them. I don't know. I really don't. I wish they would. I love Spider-Man Noir, too. I think that's a great character. Spider-Man's the coolest superhero. And then you combine that with Cagney and Bogart and Edward G. Robinson, come on, it's a great character."

Not all hope is lost. There is a chance that there is a smaller role that Cage could voice later down the line for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse much in the same way that Oscar Isaac did for the first movie. His scene was filmed in the eleventh hour in Isaac's home; they could do something for Cage if the moment is small and only a few lines. However, it is a shame that it looks like we won't get that original Spider-People group together for the sequel.
