This just in-
it would appear that Issa Rae will be web slinging into Sony Pictures’ upcoming “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse” sequel as notable Spider-person Jessica Drew, aka Spider-Woman.

Rae does it all- she’s a writer, producer, and actress known for her work as “The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl,” HBO’s “Insecure,” and “A Black Lady Sketch Show.”
The animated “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse” sequel doesn’t have a lot of definite news yet, other than Shameik Moore returning as Miles Morales / Spider-Man, and Hailee Steinfeld returning as Spider-Gwen.
Directors Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers, and Justin K. Thompson are returning. Phil Lord, Chris Miller, and David Callaham are writing the script for the project.
The film is currently set to hit theaters on October 7th, 2022.
This story is developing…and we’ll obviously let you know what else we hear about this and other projects.
