Could Hailee Steinfeld Play Gwen Stacy In Live-Action?
The use of live-action universes in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse was a unique and intriguing aspect of the film. The Spot utilized his powers to travel to the Venom universe and steal from Mrs. Chen's convenience store, while Donald Glover made an appearance as a live-action Prowler, a nod to his role as Aaron Davis in Spider-Man: Homecoming. Additionally, archival footage of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's Spider-Men was incorporated to illustrate canon events. This incorporation of live-action elements and characters expands the Spider-Verse movies' world, and with the forthcoming Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, there is potential for some characters to transition from animation to live-action. Shameik Moore and Hailee Steinfeld have expressed interest in portraying Miles Morales and Gwen Stacy in live-action, respectively.
Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse presents a unique opportunity for the characters to potentially enter a live-action universe, transforming from animation to real-life actors. Although Steinfeld's chances of reprising her role as Gwen Stacy Spider-Woman in live-action may be limited due to her current role as Kate Bishop in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, her standout performance in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse has sparked interest in seeing her take on the role in a live-action adaptation. There is a possibility that this could come to fruition next year.
