Spider-Noir release date speculation, trailer and latest news

Early stills and footage from the series have been in black-and-white – in-keeping with the character's typical depiction – but Prime Video has also promised a colour version for those who prefer a more modern sensibility.

Spider-Verse voice actor Nicolas Cage is reprising his role for the eight-episode series, with a number of high-profile additions adding further star-power to the project – including familiar faces from New Girl and Harry Potter.

Here's everything you need to know about Spider-Noir on Prime Video, including the show's current release window.

Spider-Noir release date speculation

Spider-Noir does not yet have a confirmed launch date on Prime Video, but the streaming platform has announced a release window of 2026.

Given that filming has already wrapped on the much-anticipated project – taking place between August 2024 and March 2025 – it's quite plausible that the finished series could drop in the first half of next year.

The lengthy post-production is likely intended to refine the show's sharp visual style, which evokes Robert Rodriguez's Sin City with a moody black-and-white aesthetic (although a full colour version will also be available).

We'll bring you more information on Spider-Noir as it comes in.

Spider-Noir cast: Who stars in the Spider-Verse spin-off?

Nicolas Cage leads the cast of upcoming Prime Video series Spider-Noir, playing a private investigator who masquerades as a vigilante by night in order to close his cases.

Of course, Cage first inhabited the role for Sony's acclaimed animated Spider-Verse films, but this series will mark the first time that he plays the character (a variant of Peter Parker) in live-action.

A number of other cast members have been announced for Spider-Noir, including New Girl and Fargo alum Lamorne Morris as journalist Robbie Robertson; an ally of the titular hero, who is unafraid to chase dangerous stories.

Academy Award nominee Brendan Gleeson (The Banshees of Inisherin) co-stars as a New York crime boss, while Sinners breakout star Li Jun Li will play a nightclub singer drawn into the web of conspiracy.

The supporting cast of Spider-Noir includes Abraham Popoola (Andor), Jack Huston (Boardwalk Empire), Andrew Lewis Caldwell (The Matrix Resurrections), Amy Aquino (Juror #2), Andrew Robinson (Hellraiser) and Kai Caster (Yellowstone).

Here's a full list of the confirmed names attached to Spider-Noir:

• Nicolas Cage as Spider-Noir

• Brendan Gleeson as a crime boss

Spider-Noir plot: What is it about?

Little is known about the plot of Spider-Noir just yet, besides that it follows the titular character – "an ageing, down-on-his-luck private investigator" – as he recalls his vigilantism in 1930s New York City.

It seems unlikely that the series will tie into the Spider-Verse film franchise, despite the character's vivid screen debut (and Cage's impactful voice performance) acting as the launchpad for this follow-up project.
