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.
Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief.
Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence.
Though she be but little, she is fierce.
