Marvel Animation has released a new trailer for Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man offering a little tease of what’s to come tover the course of the remainder of the first season.
In it, we see Spider-Man battling Scorpion, Speed-Demon, and even Daredevil. I’ve watched the first episode of the series so far, and I’m loving it!
As we previously reported, earlier this week, an interview surfaced with Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man star Hudson Thames, and when the actor was asked about the decision to introduce a diverse cast of characters, he responded:
“I thought it was awesome. I mean, my biggest fear was that it was gonna be annoying and woke, and it wasn’t, and I was like, ‘Yes, this is great, it’s so well written,’ like it feels real.”
“I’m the oldest of five boys, so I feel like I kind of know what’s happening in their lives and in high school, and it felt like it was doing that justice.”
As you might have guessed, his remarks were met with some negative backlash on social media, with a lt of people demanding that Marvel recast the role. Yeah, the comments landed him in hot water.
During a recent Reddit AMA, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man showrunner Jeff Trammell was asked about the controversy and this is how he responded:
“Ha, I love Hudson and didn’t focus too much on what he said. I believe he simply misspoke, and I know that’s been weighing on him.
“I think we made a fantastic show that is going to appeal to a wide audience and hopefully captures what I love about this Spider-Man: that he’s a guy who cares deeply about the people around him and always tries to do the right thing.”
Regardless of what Thames said, the creative team has made a great show!
