Fun Theme Song Revealed for Marvel's YOUR FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD SPIDER-MAN
Marvel Studios has released the theme song for its super fun-looking animated series Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, and I dig it!
The theme song is called “Neighbor Like Me” and it was created by The Match Club featuring Relaye and Melo Makes Music.
While this is something for a new generation of fans, something old-school fans will appreciate about the hip-hop theme is that it samples the original 1967’s Spider-Man theme by Bob Harris and Paul Francis Webster.
The series follows Peter Parker and his journey to becoming Spider-Man in the MCU. The series is set in an alternate timeline, where the webslinger’s origin story features a mentorship by Norman Osborn (of Oscorp fame), the alter ego to bitter enemy Green Goblin, instead of Tony Stark.
The voice cast for the series includes Hudson Thames (What If...?) as Peter Parker, Eugene Byrd (Spidey and His Amazing Friends, 8 Mile) as Lonnie Lincoln, Grace Song (Kidding) as Nico Minoru, Hugh Dancy (Hannibal) as Otto Octavius, Kari Wahlgren (FLCL, Rick and Morty) as Aunt May, and Zeno Robinson (My Hero Academia, Pokemon Master Journeys: The Series) as Harry Osborn. It also includes Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock / Daredevil along with Paul F. Tompkins as Bentley Wittman / Wizard.
The head writer of the series is Jeff Trammell and Mel Zwyer is the supervising director.
The 10-episode series swings onto Disney+ January 29th.
