Spider-Verse composer reveals his secret role helping bring fan-favorite Spider-Punk to the screen

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-verse composer.

As soon as Hobie Brown, a.k.a. Spider-Punk, casually strutted onto the screen in last year's sequel Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, he was an instant hit.
