John Mulaney has a pitch for a Spider-Ham solo film
While Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is leading to both a sequel and a spin-off so far, actor and comedian John Mulaney (Big Mouth) has an idea for a Spider-Ham solo film, per Variety. Mulaney, who voiced Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham, sees his potential animated spin-off as being about Peter Porker’s work as a journalist as much as being about his superhero antics.
“[Spider-Ham] is a fun guy who is capable of great rage,” Mulaney said. “To go see him back at the Daily Beagle — I could see a Watergate-like story at the Beagle where he’s both a reporter and Spider-Ham by night. [I] never thought that the Clark Kents and the Peter Parkers leaned enough into the day job. This would be more like The Post or All The President’s Men or Spotlight, but we’d make it family friendly. Lots of bacon jokes, or, ‘that’s hamfisted.'”
According to a recent Vanity Fair interview, Sony chief Amy Pascal and Marvel’s Avi Arad are considering how they could utilize the character for his own adventure.
