As a seasoned film enthusiast who’s witnessed the evolution of television and cinema, I can confidently say that Lamorne Morris‘s upcoming role as Robbie Robertson in Spider-Noir is nothing short of exhilarating. Having grown up watching his comedic charm on New Girl and marveling at his versatile roles in Game Night and Jumanji: The Next Level, it’s a delight to see him stepping into the world of superheroes.
Actor Lamorne Morris, famous for his role as Winston Bishop on New Girl (2011-2018), is thrilled about the forthcoming Spider-Noir series and encourages fans to share his enthusiasm. Apart from his work in TV, he has also been featured in movies like Game Night and Jumanji: The Next Level. His next appearance will be as comedian Garrett Morris in Saturday Night. Recently, Morris was cast for the upcoming Spider-Man Noir series, which is called Spider-Noir.
In the upcoming live-action spin-off of Spider-Verse, Morris is set to portray Robbie Robertson, a role that will once again feature Nicolas Cage as Spider-Man Noir. This series marks the first live-action Spider-Man production since the 1977-1979 show, The Amazing Spider-Man, and fans are eager to learn more about its content. In an interview with Comic Book.com, Morris shared that he will infuse some of his own personality into the character of Robbie Robertson, and is thrilled for viewers to watch this series, as it promises to offer a unique television experience unlike any other. Morris stated:
As someone who’s been around the block a few times and seen my fair share of wild projects, let me tell you, this one takes the cake. I’ve signed a nondisclosure agreement tighter than Fort Knox, but I can assure you that what we’re cooking up is something truly extraordinary. It’s so out there, it’ll leave you scratching your head and wondering if you’re watching TV or peering through a kaleidoscope! Now, folks who know me, they know I don’t dance around the bush – I’m putting my heart and soul into bringing this version of Robbie Robertson to life. And trust me, there’ll be a sprinkle of Lamorne in there, just enough to keep things interesting. But, I can’t give away too many secrets, or else I’d have to change my name and move to a remote island. All I can say is that fans are gonna love it – mark my words!
Spider-Noir’s Robbie Robertson Explained
In the primary Marvel Comics continuity, Morris will portray Robbie Robertson, a significant character from the Spider-Man universe originally introduced by Stan Lee and John Romita Sr. Robbie made his debut in issue #51 of “The Amazing Spider-Man” in August 1967, being among the initial Black characters to hold a substantial supporting role. He is often depicted as the voice of reason for J. Jonah Jameson at the Daily Bugle. Notably, the late Bill Nunn brought Robbie Robertson to life in all three Sam Raimi-directed Spider-Man movies.
In Morris’s rendition, Robbie Robertson is portrayed as a youthful journalist compared to comics and past adaptations, characterized by his relentless pursuit of daring tales to gain notice. Alongside Morris and Cage, the ensemble includes Brendan Gleeson from ‘In Bruges’, Li Jun Li from ‘Babylon’, and Abraham Popoola from ‘Atlas’. Titled initially as ‘Noir’ but renamed for its Spider-Man connection, ‘Spider-Noir’ is under development by Sony Pictures Television, Lord and Miller Productions, and Amazon MGM Studios, to be aired on MGM+. This suggests a link to the Sony-produced ‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse’ and ‘Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse’ films. As of now, there’s no confirmed release date for ‘Spider-Noir’ or the animated film ‘Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse’, so fans might have to wait a while to witness this part of the Marvel Universe take shape.
