2. Miguel O’Hara (Spider-Man 2099)

Marvel project: Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse

"“But I’m not like the others. I don’t always like what I have to do. But I know I have to be the one to do it._- Miguel O’Hara"

This wasn’t what this writer expected when Miguel O’Hara appeared at the end of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. It looked like he would have a fun or accidentally entertaining personality.  When Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse debuted, it was clear that wouldn’t be the case.

Miguel O’Hara was beaten by a tragic life. That defeat gave him a mission to make sure that no one would go through the emotional pain he did. His journey became an obsession that festered and turned him into something resembling a monster. Despite that appearance, Miguel O’Hara wasn’t wrong. He was protecting the multiverse from destruction and he was the only person fit for the job.

It takes a special person to bring a character to life with only their voice. Of course, the animation team was key in this as well. They created a flawless look for Miguel O’Hara. Nevertheless, Oscar Isaac had to contribute to the awesomeness that was Spider-Man 2099. Otherwise, O’Hara wouldn’t have become a phenomenal character.

Miguel O’Hara has moments where he sounded evil, annoyed, and frustrated. Since he was wearing a mask at times, all of those emotions were conveyed through his voice. You could feel the emotion every time he spoke. And, with O’Hara being an intense person at all times, it couldn’t be turned off. A perfect voice-acting performance.
