Key Points:
- Spider-Noir, starring Nicolas Cage and recently canceled by Prime Video/MGM+, won five awards at the 2026 Creative Arts Emmys despite its cancellation shortly after debuting in May.
- The series earned 11 Emmy nominations, the most for any show on the streamer this year, winning in categories including stunt coordination, sound editing, title design, special visual effects, and cinematography.
- Spider-Noir followed Cage’s character Ben Reilly, a 1930s New York private investigator and superhero grappling with his past, and was part of Sony Pictures Television and Amazon Studios’ plan to expand Marvel stories under Sony.
- The show featured a notable cast including Lamorne Morris and Brendan Gleeson, with co-showrunners Oren Uziel and Steve Lightfoot, and executive producers such as Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, Amy Pascal, and Nicolas Cage himself.
- Despite the critical acclaim and Emmy recognition, the stunt coordinators humorously distanced themselves from hopes of reversing the cancellation, highlighting the disconnect between awards success and network decisions.
