Shameik Moore (born May 4, 1995, in Atlanta, Georgia) is an American actor, voice artist, and musician who has become one of his generation’s most versatile talents, known for seamlessly shifting between breakthrough dramatic performances, genre‑defining animation, and television drama. Moore first gained critical attention for his lead role as Malcolm Adekanbi in the indie coming‑of‑age hit Dope (2015), a performance that earned him a Critics’ Choice nomination for Best Young Performer and helped establish him as a fresh face to watch. He followed with notable roles on television as Curtis “Shaolin Fantastic” in Baz Luhrmann’s musical‑drama series The Get Down (2016–2017) and as Wu‑Tang Clan legend Raekwon in Hulu’s Wu‑Tang: An American Saga (2019–2023), showcasing his dramatic range and commitment to character depth.

Moore’s global profile soared when he began voicing Miles Morales / Spider‑Man in Spider‑Man: Into the Spider‑Verse (2018), a landmark animated film that won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature; his performance earned multiple awards including the Black Reel Award for Outstanding Voice Performance and the OFTA Film Award for Best Voice‑Over, along with numerous other nominations from institutions such as the NAACP Image Awards and Critics’ Choice. He reprised the role in Spider‑Man: Across the Spider‑Verse (2023), which garnered widespread acclaim and additional voice‑acting nominations, and also lent his voice to the 2023 short The Spider Within: A Spider‑Verse Story.

Recent live‑action work includes the 2024 sports comedy The Gutter and his casting as series regular Branford “Breeze” Frady in the final season of Power Book III: Raising Kanan (2025), expanding his presence in prestige television. Moore continues voicing Miles in the upcoming third chapter of the animated franchise (Spider‑Man: Beyond the Spider‑Verse) and stars opposite Paris Jackson in the 2025 action thriller One Spoon of Chocolate, reflecting his evolution from breakout young actor to a dynamic leading voice in both film and television.
