Insomniac Games’s Spider-Man 2 is almost here (releasing on 20th October), and we can’t wait to carry on with the epic storyline of Peter, Miles and company.

We know from the previous two titles that this series knows how to tell a story, thanks largely to the acting talent.

So, who are the stars of Spider-Man 2? You’ll be relieved to hear that a lot of the cast from the previous games are returning, along with a few new voices.

Let’s take a look at the complete cast, before diving into their CVs…

Where do you know the Spider-Man 2 cast from?

So, where do we know this cast from? Well, let’s start with the web slinging hero himself (well, one of them): Yuri Lowenthal. (For those of you worried about the face change, rest assured that it’s still Lowenthal’s voice.)

He played Peter Parker in the previous two games, and he’s also appeared in Netflix’s Arcane, and as the English voice for Sasuke Uchiha in Naruto. He’s gaming royalty, having voiced the Prince in 2003’s Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time.

The other Spider-Man, Miles Morales, is voiced by Nadji Jeter. He played Miles in the previous two games, and he also voiced the same character in the 2017 animated Spider-Man series. In gaming, he voiced Sam in The Last of Us.

Returning as Mary Jane is Laura Bailey, another gaming icon. As well as playing Abby in The Last of Us Part 2 (which won her a BAFTA), and Nadine in Uncharted, she’s appeared frequently in the D&D web series Critical Role.

As for other games, though, her CV couldn’t be more impressive, including: Gears of War, Skyrim, Fallout, Persona, Infamous, Halo and Borderlands, to name just a few.

Tony Todd, playing Venom, might be a newcomer to the series, but he’s an acting veteran. His first film role was in 1986’s Platoon, and he soon jumped to stardom as Kurn in Star Trek: The Next Generation and as Ben in the Night of the Living Dead remake.

No stranger to gaming, he narrated the classic RPG Legend of Dragoon, and has appeared in Dota, Call of Duty and Half-Life: Alyx.

Graham Phillips is known for his TV work, appearing in The Good Wife. He also played Ben Tennyson in the film Ben 10: Race Against Time.

Jim Pirri is another film vet with a foot in gaming, having played Angelo Bronte in Red Dead Redemption 2.

Stephen Oyoung, returning as Mister Negative, has appeared in Terminator: Dark Fate, and he also voiced Red Hood in Gotham Knights and KK in Ghostwire: Tokyo.

Another returning performer is Tara Platt as Yuri Watanabe. She’s also voiced a whole bunch of iconic gaming characters, such as Setsuka in Soulcalibur and Anna in Tekken. She’s a Naruto alumni, too, providing the voice for Temari!
