Cyler stole the show in Lionsgate’s Power Rangers reboot, and fans hope to see him in a sequel. During a discussion with ScreenRant, he revealed that he wants to also be a part of Sony’s Spider-Man universe, specifically as Miles Morales.

“I’d definitely want to be Miles Morales in Spider-Man”, said Cyler. “That’s my dream role, to be honest, to play Miles Morales,because for one, I know that I would totally geek out the entire time, because Spider-Man is my favorite superhero. I have a Spider-Man steering wheel, Spider-Man floor mats, that’s just me. So that’s my perfect role, that’s my ideal role for the future. Rather distant, or some other time, you know?”

At one time Miles was rumored to be in Spider-Man: Homecoming, thought to be played by Donald Glover. The studio has been cagey though as to what part he will play, and it could end up being someone else entirely.

It also makes sense that Sony and Marvel would leave Miles out initially, as they don’t want to remove the spotlight from Peter Parker. He could very well turn up in future films though, and Cyler would be a fantastic actor for the part.
