Spider-Verse directors reveal that Daniel Kaluuya's Spider-Punk was nearly cut from the film

Spider-punk.

Just like the original film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, this year's much acclaimed sequel Across the Spider-Verse featured an impressive ensemble cast of characters. Whilst the likes of Miles Morales, Spider-Gwen, and Peter B. Parker returned, there were also several exciting new additions from Pavitr Prabhakar (a.k.a. Spider-Man India) to Jess Drew (a.k.a. Spider-Woman). 

However, there was one character who stood out within this spectacular crowd of Spider-People - of course we are talking about none other than Hobie Brown, a.k.a. Spider-Punk, voiced by Get Out star Daniel Kaluuya. Casually striding onto the scene with all of his swagger, Hobie instantly became a fan-favorite winning audiences over with his rebellious nature and easygoing charm.
