Overview
- Prime Video released all eight episodes of Spider‑Noir on May 27, 2026, offering two separately produced editions labeled “Authentic Black & White” and “True‑Hue Full Color” so viewers can choose distinct visual experiences.
- Nicolas Cage stars as aging private detective Ben Reilly, a world‑weary version of The Spider, with the series written by Oren Uziel, directed by Harry Bradbeer and executive‑produced by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller.
- The supporting cast includes Brendan Gleeson as crime boss Silvermane, Lamorne Morris as journalist Robbie Robertson, Li Jun Li as Cat Hardy and Karen Rodríguez as Janet Ruiz.
- Although set in 1930s New York, the production was filmed in Los Angeles using period sets and lighting meant to evoke classic noir, and the two formats were shot and processed separately rather than one being a simple colorization.
- The series adapts Marvel’s 2009 Noir line and draws on Cage’s 2018 voice work in Into the Spider‑Verse, and its Prime Video release underscores Sony’s control of Spider‑Man properties and the studio’s strategy to place SSU projects on partner platforms; no second season has been announced.
