How Nadji Jeter Became Miles Morales in Marvel's 'Spider-Man' 🕷 | Teen Vogue
Ойын-сауық
"When you hear all those hard breaths and tones in the game…those are real." When Nadji Jeter received the call from PlayStation to take on the role of Miles Morales, it was an easy yes for him. From stepping into the mo-cap world to all the physical training it takes to bring the stunts to life, Nadji truly went "full-blown" for his role. Nadji breaks down his entire process for the 'Spider-Man,' from the mental preparation for the role, working alongside Yuri Lowenthal and so much more.

Just let Miles look and sound like Nadji does here in Spiderman 3. A young adult Miles is something we haven't had yet.

Respectfully disagree HEAVILY. Shameik Moore nailed it entirely. Nadji Jeter sounds more like miles in my head in this interview than he does in the game. Miles in the game is supposed to be heavy into his culture and background but he doesn’t talk/sound like it. I don’t hate it, I love miles in the game, but he’s not the best version or most definitive. He could be done better, but it’s no fault of the actor. He’s just doing what he’s directed

FACTS
Grew up watching him in Grown Ups to listening to him as Miles in the 2017 animated show and here he is again in one of the greatest PlayStation series. Dude is seriously incredible. And as much as I also enjoy Shameik in the Spider-Verse, Nadji is my favorite voice for Miles, I still hear his voice when reading the Miles comics. Super happy for all his continued success and I hope it continues! Dude deserves it.

The message he brought out he can be that person who loves compassion!! Am grateful I met him in August. His character Miles does impact me how I was dealing with the loss of a parent. We can be strong together in this tough world. This actor is a sweetest awesome person.

He did Sam for last of us. He was also Andre McKenzie for Grown Ups! Definitely came a long way!
It’s so weird cuz him and Shamiek is who I had in mind to play Miles in live action around 2014-2016.
I'm trying to wrap my head around seeing him in Grown Ups back then to seeing him now looking like he's gonna play Prodigy in a Mobb Deep biopic.
I learned so much, this was a phenomenal interview.
He needs to be miles morales in a live action movie please😢
and that is how we found our live action Miles Morales 💜 if marvel or Disney messes up what this man's doing, I'll be upset. this guy is a perfect Miles on any screen!
1:30 no way this is that notorious spiderman 2 shot 😂 we cant escaoe it
Spectacular interview 🔥🔥🔥
I would of never thought he played as Sam in the last of us this guy deserves more credit then he’s given well done well done
I like game's Miles more than movie's Miles. In movie he seems a bit whiny. But in games he's so matured and more relatable. We also spend more times with game's miles
So proud of him😭🫶🏽
