SPIDER-MAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES Star Christopher Daniel Barnes Open To Returning For SPIDER-VERSE 2

For many fans of the wall-crawler, Christopher Daniel Barnes' Peter Parker is the definitive Spider-Man. Now, he's weighed in on possibly reprising the role in the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse sequel!

Christopher Daniel Barnes voiced Peter Parker across five seasons of Spider-Man: The Animated Series, and many fans would love to see him given the opportunity to reprise the role of the web-slinger. The planned Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse sequel seems like the perfect place for that, of course, and Barnes is definitely open to the idea. 

"That would be great," Barnes told It's Recording Time when asked if he would like to appear in the next Spider-Verse movie. "I've reprised the role several times in video games, so that would be great. If I could do that again, I'd be honoured. I'm getting kind of old to do it, but I'd be happy to play an older Spider-Man."

Spider-Man: The Animated Series aired between 1994 and 1998, and as he mentioned, Barnes would later voice Spider-Man Noir in Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions and Spider-Man 2099 in Spider-Man: Edge of Time. He also provided the voices for Spyder-Knight and Wolf Spider in Disney XD's Ultimate Spider-Man series. 

There are many iterations of the character he could play in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 2, but the version from The Animated Series surely deserves to be somewhere near the top of the list.

What do you guys think?

Would be cool to see him (even if his show hasnt aged the best) personally would rather have Josh Keaton

It'd be cool to get more Spideys, maybe let Garfield have another go around, but I don't want them to go over-board with the fan-service. Even beyond the incredible animation, the first Spider-Verse is also one of the tightest, best-written CBMs we've ever had.

@tmp3 - so we are getting miles, toei spiderman, gwen and 2099. Id say at most have 1 version of peter.

Would be great to see the live action spidermen unite. Although doubt it will happen

@dracula - Holy shit, I just remembered Oscar Isaac is gonna be in Spider-Verse 2. That dude's busy as hell between that, Dune, the Vertigo "Ex Machina" adaptation, and the new films from Paul Schrader, James Gray & Ben Stiller he signed onto recently (and finished in Schrader's case)

@tmp3 - wonder if they got the original toei spiderman actor to voice his version. Either way hope
They keep his voice in Japanese and have subtitles, could make a joke about it

Cut the check, Sony. This guy has certified big web energy.



(I love the top voted comment on this. "Is he overacting? Yes. Does he sound like he has an alien parasite in his brain driving him insane with rage? Yes.")

But seriously, though, get 'em all. Dan Gilvezan is still around, too.

@dracula - Yes and yes.

@Spock0Clock - for the 3rd film just get everyone who has voiced a spider person. Most would probably just be cameos though. For the villain

Turkish spiderman

Cool, sure. Again, don't overload it, but if they can find a cool way for him to be in it, I'm down. Always liked his voice for an older Peter Parker

Is Spider-Verse 2 already in pre-production? Or is that delayed because of the 'rona? Because I'm really hyped for this after seeing the first one again last weekend (and I'm looking forward to Spider-Man: Miles Morales even more now too)

He is going to be an expert on the multiverse. It would be great to see Spider-Barnes help Miles.
dracula
dracula - 6/22/2020, 2:03 AM
@Repian - Maybe have him reunite with his Mary Jane in the movie who ended up on another earth

@dracula - please! Give us that damn closure! My inner 10year old self needs to know what happened to MJ! I’ve been anxious about it for 20 years!

@Repian - I never even thought of that but god would I love for that to happen.

It would make perfect sense to include his Spidey. What with Madam Web and his experience already with multiversal Spideys.
FinnishDude
FinnishDude - 6/22/2020, 3:45 AM
Unpopular opinion, he is pretty overrated in the role. Maybe the whole show being on Disney+ and everyone being able to revisit more than just random handful of episodes (since the show to date hasn't gotten a complete physical release, besides Region 2) will change that, but people tend to put TAS on a weird pedestal as one of the best Marvel cartoons and the golden standard of Spider-Man shows, but it really wasn't that good and the voice acting was one of the big flaws. CDB does grow on you as the series goes on, but I wouldn't put him to my personal TOP-10 of Spider-Man voice actors or anything like that.
Himura
Himura - 6/22/2020, 4:26 AM
@FinnishDude - Yeah...no.

Mrcool210 - 6/22/2020, 3:54 AM
I would much rather they include him then PS4 Spidey. Love that Spidey but it's too soon for him to be here. This one's already gotten involved with the multi verse, plus CDB is my favorite voice hands down, I still hear his voice when I read comics.


And don't pull the crap of him just being a different spiderman Sony. Make him the one from the 90s series, Disney will probably let you so do it.




PS: The daredevil crossover he had kicked ass.
Himura
Himura - 6/22/2020, 4:26 AM
His voice will always be the voice of Spider-Man when I read the comics.

Nightwing1015 - 6/22/2020, 4:27 AM
@Himura - Josh Keaton for me
Nightwing1015
Nightwing1015 - 6/22/2020, 4:27 AM
Yeah put him in! Include PS4 and Spectacular Spider-Men too!
Thing94
Thing94 - 6/22/2020, 5:06 AM
Yeah bring him back!

As someone who grew up on that show, if they can figure out an organic way that serves the story, [frick] YES BRING 90s SPIDEY BACK!!!

Can I just reiterate how much I want an official complete series DVD set release of this particular Spider-cartoon?!
THEDARKKNIGHT1939
THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - 6/22/2020, 9:24 AM
Yes! If they ever plan on doing the Spider-Verse in the live action department, save Garfield and Tobey for that and use the animated/comic book Spideys for these movies. Otherwise, I think it would feel like too much at once.

Barnes is my Spidey but I love me some Josh Keaton too. I can't believe I just discovered these:
