Wu-Tang: An American Saga premieres with its third season on Wednesday, February 15 on Hulu. New episodes stream every Wu-Wednesday, and if you've overlooked the series, now is the perfect time to catch up and follow this incredible story.
Off the release of their debut album and their continued rise to fame, the final season follows the Wu-Tang Clan over the course of their five-year plan as they face and overcome different challenges.
While each of the members goes on separate journeys to figure out where they fit in the music world, RZA struggles to stay on top of things in order to fulfil the promise he made to his Wu brothers. As money, fame, ego, and business threaten to tear the group apart, they must find a way to come together and cement their legacy.
Earlier this month, we had the opportunity to sit down with star Shameik Moore to discuss his role as Raekwon "The Chef," though we're sure many of you will know the actor best for lending his voice to Miles Morales in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.
When the web-slinger came up during the course of our conversation with the actor, singer, and rapper, we asked how it feels to see the way Into the Spider-Verse has resonated with fans. After all, the Oscar-winning 2018 movie changed animation forever and inspired people across the globe who learned anyone can wear the mask.
"Yeah, I think people…honestly speaking, I think Miles Morales is beyond Shameik Moore," he admits in the video above. "I’m honoured for the opportunity to do it, but I bring myself and it is me for a reason, but I don’t really think that way. It’s not about me. None of this is. I’m just a vessel. It is an honour. All of it is."
As for what fans can expect from this summer's Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, Moore added: "Hey man, I’m in Wu-Tang energy at the moment, but what can I share? I can’t really share much, but we’re going into the Spider-Verse and travelling and we’re gonna see a lot of amazing things."
"I think that first movie was about taking that leap of faith, and this movie is about…anyone can wear the mask, but it’s about how you wear it, the decisions you make, and really owning it," he added, teasing Miles' journey in this follow-up. "The correlation between Wu-Tang and Spider-Verse really is that it’s about family and standing for something."
Moore is a legit talent, and as excited as we are about seeing him play Miles again, don't sleep on Wu-Tang: An American Saga because this third season really is something else.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse swings into theaters on June 2, while Wu-Tang: An American Saga returns to Hulu this Wednesday, February 15.
