Gizmodo • • entertainment
Key Points:
- Prime Video has canceled Spider-Noir after its first season due to declining viewership and high production costs associated with its 1930s setting and dual color/black-and-white formats.
- Spider-Noir starred Nicolas Cage as Ben Reilly, a Spider-Man variant, and received positive reviews along with nearly a dozen Primetime Emmy nominations in production and stunt categories.
- The series was part of a Sony and Amazon collaboration that also included a planned Silk solo series, which was never produced after an attempted overhaul.
- Despite the cancellation, Sony is continuing to develop multiple Marvel-related projects for Prime Video, with at least one expected to receive a series order.
- Nicolas Cage’s Spider-Noir character will return in the upcoming film Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, marking his first appearance in the franchise’s new movie after missing the previous installment.
