Another alternate Spider-Man has emerged in the Spider-Verse. Via One Take News and confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter, Karan Soni has been cast as the voice of Spider-Man India in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.

Issa Rae as Jessica Drew/Spider-Woma, Daniel Kaluuya as Hobie Brown/Spider-Punk, and Oscar Isaac as Miguel O’Hara as Miguel O’Hara a.k.a. Spider-Man 2099.
