It\u2019s great when people are excited about their job! That appears to be the case for Ben Jordan, the actor behind Peter Parker\u2019s face in Insomniac\u2019s\u00a0Marvel\u2019s Spider-Man games, who took to his socials<\/a> to show off a thwip-tastic pose in the mo-cap studio. That\u2019s all lovely, but as\u00a0Push Square points out<\/a>, probably not something the developers were hoping for, given Sony\u2019s Insomniac has yet to announce it\u2019s even working on a Spider-Man 3, let alone ready to release behind-the-scenes footage.<\/p>\n

Insomniac is currently publicly focused on Marvel\u2019s Wolverine<\/a>, the long-awaited action-adventure due to arrive in September of this year. Presumably Sony and Marvel would have preferred that everyone remain focused on that project before revealing the studio has already begun work on a Spider-Man 3, as inevitable as the sequel was. But Ben Jordan\u2019s now-deleted post has rather given the game away.<\/p>\n

You could argue that the actor is familiar enough to Insomniac that he might be in for any project, but given he\u2019s standing with his hands in the classic Spidey web-shooting pose, there\u2019s not a lot else on the table. You could argue that it might be for a Spider-Man cameo in Wolverine, which would make sense, but also, facial mo-cap five months before release would seem pretty last-minute. It\u2019s also worth noting that being the face of Spider-Man is Jordan\u2019s only acting credit, his main job being a model.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Wolverine game is due to feature a bunch of other characters like Mystique and Omega Red, but they seem to be focused on X-Men characters and it seems it\u2019d be smart to wait a while before bringing in folks from the wider world of Marvel. Which all leads to the not unsurprising but certainly unannounced likelihood of Insomniac already being well on their way with Spider-Man 3, as team members move over from\u00a0Wolverine\u00a0while that game is in its final stretch. But don\u2019t expect anything soon\u2014the gap between the first and second Spidey game was five years, and if that\u2019s repeated this would be a game we won\u2019t see before 2028, which in turn means we need to ask whether this would be a PS5 or PS6 game. (My bet is both.)<\/p>\n
