The Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 segment at PlayStation Showcase has excited fans for plenty of reasons, but one of the more unexpected ones is just how much Peter Parker’s voice actor Yuri Lowenthal borrows from his portrayal of Naruto’s Sasuke Uchiha.
This time around, Peter Parker has the Symbiote Suit, taking the web-slinger to greater heights of strength at the expense of his mental well-being. You can tell how well Parker is doing in suppressing the Symbiote’s influence through the tone of his voice, which turns uncharacteristically cruel and angry as the organism claws for more control.
As it turns out, though, Parker sounds a fair bit like Sasuke when he isn’t in the best of moods. There’s a good reason for that, as Peter Parker’s voice actor Yuri Lowenthal also voices the brooding ninja, a role he’s held since 2002.
The similarity is likely a coincidence, but it hasn’t stopped many fans from getting nostalgic.
