Spider-Man: Across the Spiderverse star Shameik Moore apologized for being a "sore loser" after his reaction to the film's Oscar loss on social media drew criticism from fans.
Moore, who voiced Miles Morales in the animated film, took to X, formerly Twitter, on Sunday evening after The Boy and the Heron beat out Spiderman, winning the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.
He first tweeted:
"Robed"
He then corrected the tweet, following up with:
"*robbed"
People on social media immediately called out Moore for his reaction to the loss.
Within half an hour, Moore took to the social media platform once again, this time to apologize for being a "sore loser."
He wrote:
"Respect to the winners."
"It’s true, I’m definitely a sore loser, but we didn’t lose, Spiderverse has impacted ALOT of lives, we may not have been acknowledged tonight but life goes on, and BEYOND….. yea get ready 😤"
After another fan who called him out by sharing producer Christopher Miller's classy reaction to the Oscar loss, Moore acknowledged his unprofessionalism and sought "forgiveness" for his reaction.
"Your right, honestly the whole Spiderverse team are such good sports."
"Very professional and I’m excited to see what comes of this. I’m young, and a fighter, so forgive my nature."
"Congrats to the winners"
People on social media appreciated Moore's apology, but many were quick to point out that The Boy and the Heron deserved all the accolades it's received thus far.
@shameikmoore ayo do you understand you should feel blessed to even be in the same category as Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki. \n\nIf you\u2019re gonna work in animation, teach yourself a lesson and watch Miyazaki\u2019s work. Sorry but The Boy and the Heron is in a different league. You almost there— (@)
@shameikmoore The Boy and the Heron impacted ALOT of lives too, just because Spider-Verse was a box office success doesn't mean you need to be acknowledged again for a second time. Stop being petty, get over it and BEYOND..... yea get ready to loose again. \ud83d\ude12\ud83d\udc4e #SpiderManBeyondTheSpiderVerse— (@)
Others noted that just because Spider-Man didn't win the Oscar doesn't mean it didn't make an impact.
While Across the Spiderverse may have not won the Oscar, they definitely won at the box office, raking in nearly $690 million worldwide.
Congrats on all the success!
