Nicolas Cage will once again play Spider-Man Noir, but this time in a live-action series.

Cage is set to star in the live-action show “Noir,” which has been ordered to series at MGM+ and Amazon Prime Video. The series will debut domestically on MGM+’s linear channel followed by a global launch on Prime Video. Variety exclusively reported the series was in development in February 2023, though Cage was not attached at that time.

The announcement was made ahead of Amazon’s upfront presentation to advertisers in New York on Tuesday.

“Expanding the Marvel universe with ‘Noir’ is a uniquely special opportunity and we are honored to bring this series to our global Prime Video customers,” said Vernon Sanders, head of television for Amazon MGM Studios. “The extremely talented Nicolas Cage is an ideal choice for our new superhero and the accomplished producing team with Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, Amy Pascal, and the incredible team at Sony is dedicated to expanding this franchise in the most authentic way.”

The “Spider-Noir” series at Amazon has added eight recurring cast members, Variety has learned.

The series, which is the first live-action project to feature the character Spider-Man Noir, has cast: Lukas Haas (“Babylon,” “Inception”), Cameron Britton (“Mindhunters,” “A Man Called Otto”), Cary Christopher (“Days of Our Lives,” “Fuller House”), Michael Kostroff (“The Wire,” “Wizard of Lies”), Scott MacArthur (“El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie,” “The Mick”), Joe Massingill (“Killing It,” “Barry”), Whitney Rice (“Jury Duty,” “Suits”), and Amanda Schull (“Suits,” “12 Monkeys”). Exact character details are being kept under wraps.

The new additions join series lead Nicolas Cage as well as fellow cast members Lamorne Morris, Brendan Gleeson, Abraham Popoola, Li Jun Li and Jack Huston. As previously reported, the show will debut domestically on MGM+’s linear channel and then globally on Amazon Prime Video.

Per the official logline, the show “tells the story of an aging and down on his luck private investigator (Cage) in 1930s New York, who is forced to grapple with his past life as the city’s one and only superhero.”
