Prime Video has unveiled the first trailer for Spider-Noir, a live-action series arriving May 27, with Nicolas Cage stepping into the lead role of Ben Reilly, also known as Spider-Man Noir.
The show will be viewable in both black and white and “True Hue” Color. The trailer was released in both editions, following the release of the series’ poster and photo reveals.
Cage reprises the character after voicing him in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, this time portraying a hard-luck private investigator navigating 1930s New York. The story follows Reilly as he struggles with his past while operating as the city’s lone masked hero. The ensemble cast includes Lamorne Morris as Robbie Robertson, Li Jun Li as Cat Hardy, and Brendan Gleeson as the crime boss Silvermane, alongside Karen Rodriguez, Abraham Popoola, and Jack Huston. Additional guest appearances feature Lukas Haas, Cameron Britton, Amanda Schull, and Andrew Robinson.
Behind the camera, the series is led by showrunners Oren Uziel and Steve Lightfoot, with early episodes directed by Harry Bradbeer. The project was developed with Spider-Verse creators Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, along with producer Amy Pascal.
Spider-Noir joins a growing slate of Spider-Man projects, arriving the same year as Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which is set for a summer theatrical release.
The trailer highlights both the gritty tone and Cage’s signature intensity, with scenes ranging from street fights to dramatic, stylized poses; check it out: HERE.
