She went on to share that she has a personal connection to Spider-Man in particular, as her uncle is a comic book artist, who used the character to teach himself to draw.
Rosario noted: “So Spider-Man is really huge [in my family]. There’s a frame in one of the new comics that has a young Spider-Man talking to Daredevil, and they made it so that the young Spider-Man goes to PS19 in the Lower East Side, which is where I went to elementary school.
“So when I tell you – my post was already ready, with my BTS, with my grandson wearing all his Spider-Man stuff … Then I got the email that was like, ‘Yeah, nah’.”
Rosario last played Claire in the 2018 season of Luke Cage, insisting shortly afterwards that she was done playing the character – at least for the time being.
At the time, she noted that she’d contributed lines to her character’s dialogue that were inspired by “the instinct of knowing that after five different shows this was probably going to be – at least, for now – a kind of goodbye for Claire”.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day is in cinemas now.
