- On April 14, 2026, Jordan shared a post on social media showing himself in a motion-capture suit.

Evidence has emerged suggesting that Insomniac Games has begun production on a third installment of the Marvel’s Spider-Man series. The development was inadvertently signaled by Ben Jordan, the actor and model who provides the facial capture for Peter Parker in the PlayStation franchise.
On April 14, 2026, Jordan shared a post on social media showing himself in a motion-capture suit. In the image, Jordan is posing with his hands in the classic web-shooting gesture associated with Spider-Man. The post included a spider emoji and the caption IYKYK
.
Although the post was subsequently deleted, it was captured and reported by several industry outlets, including Kotaku and IGN. The imagery suggests that facial model capture for a new project is underway, leading to widespread conclusions that a third Spider-Man title is in active development.
Production Context and Studio Focus
Insomniac Games has not officially announced a new Spider-Man project. The studio is currently publicly focused on Marvel’s Wolverine, an action-adventure title scheduled for release in September 2026.
The timing of Jordan’s appearance in the mo-cap studio has led to discussions regarding the nature of the work. While some have suggested Jordan could be appearing in a cameo for the upcoming Wolverine game, reports note that facial motion capture occurring five months before a game’s release would be unusually late in the production cycle.
Jordan’s primary professional credit is as the face of Spider-Man, as his main career is in modeling. While the Wolverine project is expected to feature various characters, including Omega Red and Mystique, the focus of that title appears to be on X-Men characters.
Industry Background and Previous Leaks
The suggestion of a third game aligns with previous industry rumors. According to reporting from IGN, a leak from 2024 had already suggested that a subsequent entry in the series was in the works.
The accidental reveal by Jordan comes at a time when Sony and Marvel are managing multiple high-profile projects. In addition to the Wolverine game, Sony recently announced at Cinemacon that an animated Bloodborne movie is in development, produced by YouTuber JackSepticeye.
Sony also revealed that a Zelda movie, produced in collaboration with Nintendo, has completed filming in New Zealand and is targeted for a 2027 release.
The leak of Spider-Man 3’s existence is seen as an inconvenient timing for the studio, as Sony and Marvel likely intended to keep the public’s attention on the upcoming Wolverine release before unveiling a new Spider-Man project.
