Here's some more trivia for you, then!; around the time before Amazing Spider-Man was released (iirc), there was talk of doing things differently. Many people hoped for a black Spiderman, and Donald Glover wanted that role. He even wore Spider-Man pajamas in some sort of comedy show, I think. The comic writers saw this and it inspired them to make Miles Morales. Later on, Glover landed the role of Aaron Davis in Marvel's Spider-Man Homecoming, and many fans hoped to see him become the Prowler in the MCU Spider-Man movies. This hope was kind of answered in Across the Spiderverse as we got to see him in a Prowler suit in one of the cages shown in the headquarters of the Spider Society
So that's pretty cool! I'm hoping we can see him Prowler it up in the MCU, and that we also can see the nephew he mentioned (which would be an MCU Miles) become a second Spider-Man!
