Spider-Man Voice Actor Wants to Cheer Up Bored Kids Stuck at Home

If your children are bored at home, the voice of Peter B. Parker from Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse will send them a quick message of encouragement to brighten their day. Jake Johnson, who voiced the version of Peter Parker who fought alongside Miles Morales for most of the movie, mentioned in an Instagram post how he had been asked by several parents to send encouraging messages to kids. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=new-movies-coming-to-vod-early&captions=true"] "Since the quarantine, a lot of parents have DM'd me saying they've been watching Spiderverse with their kids," Johnson said in. "So , here's my idea. If your child is home from school and wants a quick encouraging message from Peter B Parker, then send me an email with their name and I'll try and send over a short voice note." "If I don't get to you, I apologize," Johnson continued. "Email here if you wanna try this: peterbparkersayshi@gmail.com." Sony's Into the Spider-Verse was released in 2018 and its many iterations of Spider-Man quickly grew to be fan favorites, including Jake Johnson's Peter B. Parker. The entire arc of this Peter Parker focused on a down-in-the-dumps Spider-Man relearning what it means to be a hero and why it's important to be a hero, and now, your child could receive a personalized message from Spider-Man himself. Johnson's post has thousands of likes and, at the time of this writing, 2924 comments with parents thanking him for doing this and requests to hear back from some of Johnson's other famous characters, like Nick Miller from New Girl.
