Walking Dead actor Chandler Riggs plays Spider-Man in a new trailer for a non-profit fan-made film. Riggs is well known for his portrayal of Rick Grimes' (Andrew Lincoln) son, Carl, in The Walking Dead, a role he was cast in at a young age. He would play this role until Carl's shocking death in season 8. This was an event that saw many viewers leave the series as they believed Carl would continue his story as he did in the comic and live a long life.
The film is titled The Spider, and the trailer (below) was posted by director Andy Chen. It is based on The Amazing Spider-Man comics by Marvel, but the production has no association or endorsement by Marvel, Sony, or Disney. Chen wrote and directed the film, which will be available online soon and was produced by Artin John & Kealani Kitaura. The trailer description reads: A new horror take on Spider-man.
Chen posted some outstanding BTS images of filming on social media and an amazing TikTok of Riggs in action.
