Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is finally here. Once again, we take the mantle of Peter Parker and Miles Morales, but we’re also accompanied by a stellar cast of voice actors.
Insomniac Games made sure to bring us the best possible experience in Spider-Man 2. Voice actors and cast from the first two games return, while we also see some new faces take on popular roles from the comic books, like Kraven the Hunter.
Without further ado, here’s the list of all confirmed characters and their voice actors in Spider-Man 2.
Spider-Man 2 2023: Full cast list
Peter Parker – Yuri Lowenthal
He needs no introduction. Yuri Lowenthal is back voicing Peter Parker, just like he did in the first two games coming from Insomniac. Lowenthal’s performance has been praised by fans of Spider-Man, comic books, and video games overall, and we can’t say we’re surprised. While Tom Holland gives a truly spectacular depiction of Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, trying to top the performance of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, Lowenthal’s voice seems to fit the game’s Parker like a glove.
Miles Morales – Nadji Jeter
Another recurring main character is Miles Morales, who’s voiced by none other than Nadji Jeter. Miles was introduced in the first game of the franchise and then given a standalone spinoff, which explored him as a character and as Spider-Man. In both entries, Jeter did a brilliant job of delivering an on-point performance of a young but brave kid who aims to help people around him.
Mary Jane Watson – Laura Bailey
There couldn’t have been a Spider-Man story without at least one of Parker’s love interests, and in Insomniac’s franchise, it’s Mary Jane Watson. The redheaded girl-next-door is voiced by none other than Laura Bailey, who arguably is the biggest star among the voice actors of Spider-Man 2. For the past 20 years or so, Bailey has voiced popular characters in video games, anime, and more, including Supergirl in Injustice 2, Jaina Proudmoore in World of Warcraft, and Abby in The Last of Us 2.
Venom – Tony Todd
Venom is also making an appearance in Spider-Man 2. Without getting into spoilers, we will just say that he’s menacing. The extraterrestrial symbiote has been voiced and motion-captured by Tony Todd in the game. While the 68-year-old actor hasn’t made it to a Hollywood blockbuster, he’s still an immensely talented person with dozens of appearances in film, TV, and Broadway.
Kraven the Hunter – Jim Pirri
Another villain joining the Spider-Man 2 party is Kraven the Hunter. The Russian mercenary hasn’t been yet shown on big cinema screens in either of the Spider-Man movies, but Insomniac does him justice in the game. Jim Pirri, who has done voice acting for different video games and even appeared in a Friends episode, is taking on the role.
Harry Osborn – Graham Phillips
Peter’s best friend, Harry Osborn, is taking on a much bigger role than in previous titles. Rather than being locked in a lab, he’s now free, though his sickness is still running through his body. Harry is voiced by 30-year-old Graham Phillips, who will make his video game debut, but you might know him from a few Riverdale and Atypical episodes.
Martin Li / Mister Negative – Stephen Oyoung
Another recurring villain in Spider-Man 2 is Martin Li, better known as Mister Negative. Miles has a grudge against him, for obvious reasons, since he killed his father in Spider-Man: Miles Morales. Stephen Oyoung, who appeared in Gotham Knights, and John Wick: Chapter 3, is reprising the role.
Norman Osborn – Mark Rolston
Norman Osborn returns in Spider-Man 2 with Mark Rolston once again taking on the role. The entrepreneur and CEO of Oscorp is trying his best to cure his son, Harry. Rolston, who’s been in the entertainment industry for almost 50 years, is once again delivering a stunning performance.
Curt Connors / The Lizard – Mark Whitten
Dr. Connors (The Lizard) has a major role in Spider-Man 2’s story. Peter confronts him since he’s seeking help with curing Harry. But with Connors turning into a huge deadly Lizard, and being hunted by Kraven the Hunter, it’s not as easy as it sounds. Mark Whitten voices Connors, with the actor having tons of experience in video games, working previously on games such as God of War: Ragnarok, Diablo 4, and Lost Ark.
Ganke Lee – Griffin Puatu
Every hero needs his sidekick. For Miles Morales, it’s Ganke Lee, voiced by Griffin Puatu. The character is relatively new in the comics, created in 2011, but he’s already established himself in Spider-Man: Miles Morales as a real friend who will help Miles when in need. In the sequel, he’s also voiced by Griffin Puatu.
Yuri Watanabe / Wraith – Tara Platt
In the first game of the franchise, Yuri was something of a sidekick to Peter, helping him take down the Sinister Six and protecting New York. The character assumed the vigilante alter ego of Wraith in the game’s DLC The City That Never Sleeps. She makes a small return in Spider-Man 2, and voice actor Tara Platt resumes the role as well. With experience in dozens of games and animated series, she knows how to deliver a fantastic performance for the character.
J. Jonah Jameson – Darin De Paul
A Spider-Man story without annoying-yet-amusing J. Jonah Jameson on the radio and news would be nothing. The character is returning to Spider-Man 2 and is once more voiced by Darin De Paul, who played it in the first two games. Players stumble across him a few minutes into the game, where they need to lend him a hand, and he complains in typical J. Jonah Jameson fashion.
Rio Morales – Jacqueline Piñol
Rio Morales had a major role in the story of Spider-Man: Miles Morales, which is more than sensible. Miles’ mother returns in Spider-Man 2, and she’s once again voiced by Jacqueline Piñol, who played her in the previous entry.
Aaron Davis / Prowler – Ike Amadi
It’s always hard when your biggest hero turns out to be a villain—and that was the case with Aaron Davis in Spider-Man: Miles Morales, who turned out to be the Prowler. Miles’ uncle makes a brief appearance in Spider-Man 2, but we won’t spoil it for you. Ike Amadi is back in the role.
Black Cat / Felicia Hardy – Erica Lindbeck
Black Cat also jumps back into New York City in Spider-Man 2. She has quite an interesting storyline, but it’s better to see for yourself. Erica Lindbeck voices the character.
Aunt May Parker – Nancy Linari
Despite dying in the first game of the franchise, Peter’s beloved aunt May appears a few times in his memories, and she’s once more voiced by Nancy Linari.
