Shameik Moore killed it as Miles Morales, bringing one of Marvel’s best young characters to life. During his time on Into the Spider-Verse (https://io9.gizmodo.com/this-gorgeous-spider-man-into-the-spider-verse-poster-1831959615#_ga=2.12800435.529756326.1549672714-775614267.1509154595), he worked with Phil Lord and Chris Miller, the creative duo who produced the film. But it wasn’t his first time.
According to a new interview with the Hollywood Reporter (https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/shameik-moore-auditioned-play-lando-solo-a-star-wars-story-1182380), Moore tells the story of auditioning for Lord and Miller for Lando Calrissian in Solo, a part that ended up going to Donald Glover. He also remembers the duo not making a huge impression:
I don’t really care about who I’m auditioning for. I don’t know much about who the directors are beforehand. I go in there to execute my job, and if you want me, I’m here to execute. I don’t think I knew that these were the same dudes that were interested in me for Spider-Man when I went in for Star Wars. I do remember meeting them, and going in there and doing it, but I also remember feeling like I wasn’t going to have that part.
Moore, apparently, left an impression on them, however, because when they were helping to cast Spider-Verse (https://io9.gizmodo.com/watch-spider-man-into-the-spider-verses-signature-styl-1831996796#_ga=2.12800435.529756326.1549672714-775614267.1509154595)(after being, y’know, fired from Solo (https://io9.gizmodo.com/phil-lord-and-chris-miller-explain-how-leaving-solo-mad-1832057617#_ga=2.206134039.529756326.1549672714-775614267.1509154595)), Moore’s name came up again, influenced by his excellent turn in 2015’s Dope. And thus a space hero becomes a spider hero.
It’s funny, also, that Moore auditioned for a role that eventually went to Donald Glover, considering how closely tied Glover is to Miles Morales himself. Some people just have a spider destiny, I guess.
