High from the success of his latest film, Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse, Shameik Moore seems to be manifesting his next project, and he wants Zendaya to join him.
In an interview with Vibe at the BET Media House last weekend, the Dope actor revealed that he wants to star alongside the history-making Emmy winner in a romance film.
“Acting-wise, I think Zendaya and I need a film in the next three to four years that’s like Love Jones-esque, Love And Basketball-esque, Boomerang-esque. It’s got to be something for the culture,” Moore explained.
Across The Spider-Verse, of which Moore voices the titular character of Miles Morales/Spider-Man, has been universally acclaimed and has grossed over $560 million against a production budget of $100 million at the worldwide box office.
Moore discussed the impact of the film during the interview, describing the responsibility that comes with portraying Spider-Man.
“I think the most memorable moment is seeing the fans and stuff after the movie dropped. The impact of the film is the best part for me. Seeing what people say online, seeing how people react to me in person,” Moore continued. “All of the overwhelming requests from people I know to make videos for their children, nephews, or somebody they know, kids, friends that might be in the hospital, or whatever the situation is. It’s a whole responsibility being Spider-Man.”
