Deleted Instagram Post by Peter Parker Face Model Fuels Talk of Insomniac’s Next Spider-Man Game

The tease revives speculation about Insomniac’s Spider-Man plans without confirming a sequel.

Overview

  • Ben Jordan, the likeness actor for Peter Parker, shared an Instagram story on Monday showing motion-capture gear and a Spider-Man pose with “IYKYK” and a spider emoji, and he deleted it soon after.
  • Screenshots of the post spread through fan archives and gaming sites on Tuesday, prompting wide coverage that treated the image as a hint of new Spider-Man work at Insomniac.
  • Insomniac has not announced Marvel’s Spider-Man 3, and the capture session could instead relate to a cameo in Marvel’s Wolverine or a spin-off project.
  • Marvel’s Wolverine is publicly next for the studio and is scheduled to launch on September 15, 2026 on PlayStation 5, which suggests any new Spider-Man title would follow that release.
  • Jordan has provided Peter Parker’s face and facial capture since the PS5-era remaster and Spider-Man 2, and earlier leaked planning documents and past five-year gaps between mainline entries are driving speculation about a 2028-or-later window that remains unconfirmed.
