Guess what, folks? NICOLAS CAGE is back in black — and it’s not just any black; it’s the grimy, shadow-filled streets of 1930s New York! Yup, the Spider-Man Noir series has officially started filming, and Cage is suiting up as the trench coat-wearing, gritty superhero we fell in love with in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.
But hold up. This time, it’s LIVE ACTION. That’s right. Imagine all the drama of the roaring ‘30s, but with some serious superhero mystery vibes.
A New Era for Spider-Man Noir?
In recent set photos from the Los Angeles shoot, we see Cage donning the classic noir trench coat, oozing that “I don’t trust anyone” vibe (as you’d expect from a detective who’s seen too much). Cage’s Spider-Man Noir is an aging, washed-up private investigator, burdened by his past. Is he still a hero? Or has life taken its toll? Honestly, with Cage in the role, it’s bound to be both.
Here’s a kicker: rumors suggest Cage’s character may be Ben Reilly, aka Scarlet Spider, a genetic clone of Peter Parker. But don’t sweat it, the show has its twists.

What Can We Expect?
The Amazon Prime series is shaping up to be something special. It’s packed with a stellar supporting cast including Brendan Gleeson, and Lamorne Morris (yes, from New Girl!). Plus, it’s helmed by Oren Uziel, the genius behind hits like 22 Jump Street and The Cloverfield Paradox.
Expect a cocktail of detective noir, with shady deals, crime bosses, and femme fatales. Think Sin City, but with web-slingers!
We’ve got our first look at Cage prowling the city streets, trench coat flapping in the wind. One photo even shows him without the iconic mask — that’s when you know things are getting personal.
Photos from the Set!
Fans are already losing their minds over the first-look images. Cage’s Spider-Man Noir is gritty, mysterious, and straight out of a pulp comic. You can feel the tension just by looking at the stills — the dude’s ready to crack a case (or maybe a few skulls?).
Stay tuned for more updates on what’s shaping up to be the Spider-Verse show we never knew we needed!
