All sober-minded pop culture fans adhere to one important maxim: everything’s better with Nicolas Cage. And sure enough, Cage was a stand-out in the wonderful animated movie Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, as the comically hardboiled Spider-Man Noir. Every time Cage spit out a line about drinking egg creams and punching Nazis, audiences couldn’t help but cheer However, Cage isn’t the only thing that makes Spider-Verse‘s comedic take on Spider-Man Noir work. It also works because it’s limited, appearing in just a few scenes and making room for Miles Morales to be the far more dynamic heart of the piece. So as much as we love Nicolas Cage as Spider-Man Noir, the recently-announced Spider-Man Noir live-action series sounds potentially ill-fated, especially if Cage’s character ends up being the same gag from the animated movies.

Sony Pictures initially planned spin-off films featuring Spider-Man villains after “The Amazing Spider-Man 2” (2014) but abandoned the idea due to its reception. In February 2015, Sony collaborated with Marvel Studios to integrate Spider-Man into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
This partnership led to the release of “Spider-Man: Homecoming” (2017), “Spider-Man: Far From Home” (2019), and “Spider-Man: No Way Home” (2021). Meanwhile, Sony independently developed “Venom” (2018) and its sequel “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” (2021), along with “Morbius” (2022), which featured connections to the MCU through mid-credits scenes.
Additionally, Sony’s animated “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse” (2023) is linked to the Sony Spider-Man Universe (Ssu). Most Ssu films received negative reviews, with “Venom,” “Morbius,” and “Madame Web” (2024) being criticized, although “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” received mixed reviews. The franchise earned $1.6 billion globally, but “Morbius” and “Madame Web” were commercial disappointments.

A few days ago, the confirmation that ‘Spider-Man Noir’ show starring Nicholas Cage is moving forward, came. As the studio is reviewing its projects in development, one notable show involving the Spider-Man character however was canceled.
In June 2018, Sony and Amy Pascal initiated development on a film centered around Cindy Moon / Silk, a character portrayed by Tiffany Espensen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This film would be distinct from Silk’s appearance in Sony’s animated Spider-Women project.
By late 2019, Silk was considered a strong candidate for a television series, leading to the start of development for the series version, with Pascal remaining as producer. Lauren Moon began writing and developing the series in September 2020. In November 2022, the series was titled “Silk: Spider Society,” with Angela Kang joining to redevelop the series and serve as its showrunner and executive producer alongside Pascal, Phil Lord, and Christopher Miller.

Silk: Spider Society, the Sony Pictures series that had Phil Lord and Chris Miller (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse) on board as executive producers, is no longer moving forward on Prime Video.
The announcement comes just days after Amazon confirmed that the Sony-produced Spider-Man Noir show starring Nicolas Cage is officially in development. No official reason for Silk being scrapped was provided, but Deadline has heard that the decision "likely lies in the show’s tortured development history."
Apparently, the project went through at least three versions, one of which "involved a request for Angela Kang and her writing team to reconfigure the show so it is not hanging so heavily on the central character of Silk."

Here are the Spider-Man Noir comics you should read, created by David Hine and Fabrice Sapolsky, alongside artists Carmine Di Giandomenico (who drew the first stories) and Marko Djurdjević (costume designer).

5 Characters We Could See In Prime Video's Spider-Man Noir - Main Image
MGM+ and Amazon Prime Video recently announced a new live-action adaptation of Spider-Man Noir. In addition to Nicolas Cage's portrayal of the alternate version of Spider-Man, several other characters could appear in the Noir series.
Set in 1930s New York City, fans are about to see a different Spider-Man in Noir. Compared to the usual bright red-and-blue Spider suit, Spider-Noir wears an all-black ensemble to tell a darker tale of the famous Wall Crawler.
But instead of using webs and sticking to the walls, he will be a gun-toting vigilante who prefers to parkour. In the place of supervillains, he will be fighting against corrupt politicians, crooked cops, and gangsters in his hometown of New York City.
So, here are the five characters we could see in Prime Video’s upcoming Spider-Man Noir.

Over a year ago, news surfaced that Amazon would be producing a live-action series centered around Spider-Man Noir, a superhero situated in 1930s New York City. Departing from the traditional Spider-Man narrative, this show will spotlight an older, more seasoned character distinct from Peter Parker. Developed by Oren Uziel, the series will carve its own path within the Marvel universe, with Uziel serving as both writer and executive producer.
The project has attracted notable industry figures, including producers Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, and Amy Pascal. Uziel, recognized for his work on films like ’22 Jump Street’ and the 2021 ‘Mortal Kombat,’ brings his expertise to the endeavor. This series is part of Amazon’s lineup of character-driven Marvel projects, joining the ranks of ‘Silk: Spider Society.’

While many expect him to reprise his role as Ghost Rider in the upcoming flick Avengers: Secret Wars, it seems that the actor, 60, could be taking on a different Marvel character this time around.

Over a year ago, news surfaced that Amazon is working on a live-action series focused on Spider-Man Noir, a superhero based in 1930s New York City. Unlike the usual Spider-Man tales, this series will spotlight an older, more seasoned character distinct from Peter Parker. Developed by Oren Uziel, the show will carve its own path within the Marvel universe, with Uziel serving as both writer and executive producer.
The project has attracted attention from industry veterans, including producers Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, and Amy Pascal. With Uziel’s credentials from films like “22 Jump Street” and 2021’s “Mortal Kombat,” the series adds promising talent. This initiative falls in line with Amazon’s Marvel character-focused projects, such as “Silk: Spider Society.”

Amazon has just confirmed that a live-action series of Spider-Man Noir is coming to their service and this is a fantastic idea. The untitled series will follow an older, grizzled hero in 1930s New York City. The Spider-Man Noir comics originally came out in 2009 as part of the Marvel Noir universe.
