Miles Morales also known by his alias Spider-Man is a fictional character voiced by Shameik Moore in the animated Spider-Verse film franchise produced by Sony Pictures Animation, based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name created by Brian Michael Bendis and Sara Pichelli. In his origin story, Miles is an Afro-Latino transfer student at the prestigious Visions Academy private school, who is accidentally bitten by a genetically altered spider from the Alchemax Corporation, giving him superhuman abilities similar to that of his city's protector, Spider-Man. When he witnesses Spider-Man's unmasking as Peter Parker and subsequent murder at the hands of the nefarious crime lord Wilson Fisk, he is inspired to carry his mantle and embrace his role as Parker's successor, eventually being mentored by an alternate version of Parker from another reality within the multiverse. He confronts and defeats Fisk with the help of an assemblage of Spider-People from across different realities, and discovering his individuality among them.

Debuting in the film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018), this incarnation of Morales received praise among critics and audiences alongside the film's critical and commercial success as well as Morales's Puerto Ricoan and African-American background. Moore reprised the role in Across the Spider-Verse and will do so again in Beyond the Spider-Verse.
