We finally have some actual footage of the upcoming Spider-Noir series, . This is a real boon for fans of the original Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, as the show brings back Nicolas Cage as Spider-Man: Noir.
It’s also live action, so we get to see a real-life Nic Cage kicking butt as a down-on-his-luck private detective that’s bitten by a magical spider. You can likely guess what happens to him after that. Amazon says that the character will be “forced to grapple with his past life as the city’s one and only superhero.”
This is a short trailer, but it’s positively soaked in retro vibes. After all, the show’s called Spider-Noir. The teaser is in black-and-white, but it’s worth noting that the actual series will be available in both black-and-white and color. It’s all up to personal preference, but I’m digging the black-and-white.
Spider-Noir will first air on MGM+ before heading to Prime Video the next day. We don’t have a release date yet. In addition to Cage, the show stars Lamorne Morris, Brendan Gleeson, Li Jun Li and Karen Rodriguez, among others. Harry Bradbeer, who helmed most episodes of Fleabag, is directing the first two installments.
Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, the pair behind the Spiderverse franchise, are on-hand as executive producers. The show’s Spider-Man: Noir, which was first released back in 2009.
