Spider-Noir Skirts Spider-Man Label Thanks to Marvel’s Rights Rules

Prime Video’s Spider-Noir stars Nicolas Cage as Ben Reilly, a 1930s private investigator who operates under the Spider moniker but isn’t called Spider-Man due to Marvel’s stringent licensing rules governing the Spider-Man name, identity, and origin (including Peter Parker’s specifics). This creative workaround allows the show to tell a darker, adult-themed story while acknowledging other Spider-Man variants like Miles Morales.

Spider-Noir falters under Sony’s glossy Spider-Verse glare

Amazon’s MGM+ live-action Spider-Noir centers Ben Reilly as a brooding private eye and is visually gorgeous in black-and-white, but its thin narrative and uneven Nicolas Cage performance keep it from living up to Spider-Verse potential; eight episodes drop on MGM+ May 25 and Prime Video May 27, and while the look is stylish, the show largely feels like Sony tossing ideas at the wall rather than delivering a standout chapter in the Spider-Verse.

Cage Goes Noir: Spider-Noir Turns Spider-Man Into a Stylish Oddity

Nicolas Cage stars as Ben Reilly in Spider-Noir, a noir-tinged Spider-Man adaptation available on MGM+ and Amazon Prime. The eight-episode series embraces authentic black-and-white visuals (with a color option) and a crime-molution mood, blending horror and humor as Cage’s larger-than-life persona anchors a story of love, loss, and a mob-riddled New York. Supported by Li Jun Li and Lamorne Morris, Cage brings a Cagney-flavored charisma to a detective-noir twist that stays true to its comic origins while delivering stylish, punchy filmmaking. The series premiered in late May with both the MGM+ and Prime releases, and IndieWire rates it a solid B+.

Spider-Noir: Cage's Weathered Detective Brings Bogart-Bugs Bunny Flair

Deadline reports Phil Lord and Chris Miller envision Spider-Noir as a self-contained, big-but-lightweight noir for MGM+ and Prime Video, with Nicolas Cage as an older, washed-up Ben Reilly inspired by a Bogart-Bugs Bunny blend; the show will mix a sharp detective mystery with humor, created by Oren Uziel with director Harry Bradbeer, and supported by Lamorne Morris, Li Jun Li and Karen Rodriguez. It’s designed as standalone fiction rather than part of a larger Spider-Verse, with production details teased for a panel.

Nicolas Cage Slings Noir Justice as Spider-Noir in Prime Video Series

The Hollywood Reporter reports Nicolas Cage stars as Ben Reilly, a down-on-his-luck private investigator who discovers his Spider-Man Noir powers in 1930s New York for Sony Pictures Television, MGM+ and Prime Video’s Spider-Noir. The trailer sets Cage against Brendan Gleeson’s Irish crime boss Silvermane in a standalone Spider-Man Noir story that will stream in Authentic Black & White or True-Hue Full Color, and premieres May 27 with a binge release. This marks Cage’s first leading TV series role, with a cast that includes Lamorne Morris, Li Jun Li, Abraham Popoola, Karen Rodriguez and Jack Huston, and with Harry Bradbeer directing the first two episodes and Uziel/Lightfoot as showrunners, developed alongside Lord, Miller and Pascal.
