Zack Sharf Digital News Director “Spider-Verse” star Shameik Moore found himself in hot water on X (formerly Twitter) during the 2024 Oscars when he seemingly reacted to “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse” losing the Academy Award for best animated feature to Hayao Miyazaki’s “The Boy and the Heron” by posting a one word reaction: “Robbed.” Many fans were quick to criticize Moore, who voices Miles Morales in the animated franchise, and pointed out that Miyazaki is a master of animation who directed an equally acclaimed movie. “Respect to the winner,” Moore posted in a follow-up response. “It’s true, I’m definitely a sore loser, but we didn’t lose, ‘Spider-Verse’ has impacted A LOT of lives.
We may not have been acknowledged tonight but life goes on, and BEYOND….. yea get ready.” Moore was teasing the upcoming “Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse,” which will wrap up the animated trilogy. One X follower pointed out that “Spider-Verse” co-writer and producer Chris Miller had a much better reaction to the film’s Oscar loss.
“Well, if you’re gonna lose, might as well lose to the GOAT,” Miller posted on his own X account. “Your [sic] right, honestly the whole ‘Spider-Verse’ team are such good sports,” Moore said in response to the fan, who observed that Miller’s post is “how you respond to losing.” Moore added, “Very professional and I’m excited to see what comes of this. I’m young, and a fighter, so forgive my nature.
