Spider-Man Noir Live-Action Series in Development at Amazon

Amazon's web of Spider-Man projects continues to grow with the news of a live-action series starring Spider-Man Noir. Variety reports a live-action Spider-Man Noir series is in the works at Amazon, presumably for the company's Prime Video streaming service. The projects reportedly will follow the Spider-Man variant that hails from the 1930s, and will not star Peter Parker. Fans got to see and hear Nicolas Cage voice Spider-Man Noir in the animated Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, and the character has also appeared in the animated TV show Ultimate Spider-Man, voiced by Milo Ventimiglia.

Spider-Man Noir would join Amazon's growing slate of Spider-Man content. The company and MGM already have Silk: Spider Society in the works, and with the news of Spider-Man Noir, likely have more on the way. Oren Uziel will serve as writer and executive producer on the Spider-Man Noir series. Uziel developed the project alongside Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse producers Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, and former Sony boss Amy Pascal, who all executive produce. Pascal executive produces via Pascal Pictures.
