If you’re wondering where you heard Post Malone in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, think back to the scene in which Miles Morales (Shameik Moore) is on the run from Prowler (Mahershala Ali), about 30 minutes into the movie. As Miles traverses the streets, he passes a lamp post that was spectacularly warped when Kingpin (Liev Schreiber) initiated his dimension-bending Super-Collider. After he’s gone, we get a brief flash of a bystander on the street looking at the lamp post and commenting, “I think it’s a Banksy,” a reference to the world-famous guerrilla street artist.
That bystander was voiced by Post Malone. During the special screening of the film, Rodney Rothman posted a picture of himself and the rapper taken during the recording of the cameo. “‘I think it’s a Banksy’ made the movie. I still can’t believe it. And it is performed by [Post Malone],” the co-director said, adding, “Here is a photo of me directing him where I cropped out my end-of-production gut. He drank beer and had so much fun. He called me ‘Dad.'”
Maybe now that he’s gotten friendly with the film’s co-director, there will be a bigger part for Post Malone in the upcoming Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse sequel.
