Final Trailer for Spider-Noir Sets Dual-Format Launch Next Week

The dual-format release signals a stylistic bet on noir with a wider audience in mind.

Overview

  • Prime Video released the final trailer Tuesday, highlighting versions in Authentic Black & White and True‑Hue Full Color before the May 25 MGM+ debut and the May 27 global drop on Prime Video.
  • Nicolas Cage leads as Ben Reilly, a weary private eye in 1930s New York who once wore the mask, with the story positioned as a gritty, stand‑alone spin on Spider‑mythology.
  • Cage said he crafted his performance for black‑and‑white and pushed for a color option to help younger viewers try the monochrome cut and discover classic cinema influences.
  • Showrunner Oren Uziel said Peter Parker does not appear in season 1, underscoring the series’ choice to center a different Spider hero and avoid a Peter‑led origin path.
  • The series comes from co‑showrunners Oren Uziel and Steve Lightfoot with producers Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, and Amy Pascal, features villains like Silvermane and Sandman, and marks Cage’s first lead TV role after voicing Spider‑Noir in Into the Spider‑Verse.
