May 13, 2025 — Entertainment Desk — It’s official: Nicolas Cage is donning the trench coat and fedora once again — but this time in live-action.
Prime Video has unveiled the first look at “Spider-Noir”, a noir-inspired series based on the popular Marvel comic character and the breakout star of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. The reveal came Monday during the streaming giant’s upfront presentation, giving fans their first glimpse of Cage in full costume.
🕷️ Cage Returns to the Spider-Verse
After voicing the black-and-white antihero in the Oscar-winning 2018 animated film, Cage is bringing Spider-Man Noir to life in a gritty, high-contrast live-action series.
In the photo released by Prime Video, Cage wears:
- A black webbed mask
- White steampunk-style goggles
- A dark trench coat
- A signature fedora
The look perfectly mirrors the detective-style version of Spider-Man introduced in the animated multiverse — a character who fights crime in 1930s New York and operates in a moral gray zone.
🎬 What We Know About the Series
- Title: Spider-Noir
- Format: Live-action series
- Platform: Prime Video
- Star: Nicolas Cage
- Inspiration: Spider-Man Noir Marvel comics, Into the Spider-Verse
Although the show shares character DNA with the animated films, it will chart its own course, focusing more closely on the tone and lore of the “Spider-Man Noir” comic series.
🔥 Fan Reactions & Cultural Buzz
The first look has already sent shockwaves through fandom spaces:
- “Cage was born for this role. He’s weird, he’s intense — he is Spider-Noir.” — @MarvelDaily
- “That black-and-white aesthetic hits hard. Bring on the gritty detective vibes!” — @FilmJunkieHQ
🕵️♂️ Why Spider-Noir Matters
The noir version of Spider-Man represents a bold divergence from Peter Parker’s traditional character arc — set in a bleak, Depression-era world with guns, gangsters, and gray morals.
Pairing that with Cage’s eccentric and theatrical energy could make Spider-Noir one of the most unique entries in Marvel’s streaming expansion.
Final Thoughts
With Nicolas Cage suiting up, Prime Video is betting big on style, nostalgia, and star power. While other Spider-projects explore the multiverse, Spider-Noir promises a darker, moodier chapter — and fans are already counting the days.
Stay tuned for trailers, casting updates, and a release date in the months ahead.
