Spider-Man, but with a Twist!

Hold onto your hats, folks, because here comes the wacky world of Spider-Noir! Forget everything you think you know about Spider-Man because this isn’t your average wall-crawler. Picture Spider-Man donned in a stylish fedora and a timeless trench coat, solving crimes with a voice that makes you think of Nicolas Cage. Yes, you heard that right! He’s definitely not sounding like any of the other Spideys we’ve seen—sorry Tobey, Andrew, and Tom!

Back to the Future: Spidey Style

Now, before you go thinking this is all newfangled nonsense, let’s take a trip down memory lane. The Spider-Noir series is plucked straight from a 2009 miniseries by Marvel Comics, and it’s taking a nostalgic stroll through the past. The show isn’t just a lone ranger, though; it features familiar faces like Robbie Robertson, the Black Cat, and the infamous Ben Reilly. And guess what? Some snazzy pics have dropped to give us a sneak peek at these characters in action!

Not Your Granddad’s Spider-Man

So, what’s the deal with this new Spider-Noir? It takes a cue from the playful sass of Into the Spider-Verse. This time around, our hero dons a playful flair that pays homage to classic film noir gems like The Big Sleep and The Maltese Falcon. Throw in some slapstick Bugs Bunny humor, and you’ve got yourself a party!

Why Cage Got the Role

Oh, and did we mention Nicolas Cage? He’s stepping into the shoes of Ben Reilly, instead of Peter Parker. Now, many might think that’s a wild switcheroo, but chill out! Ben Reilly has been swinging through Spider-Man comics since 1974, initially popping up as Peter’s clone—talk about a family reunion gone wrong! Spoiler alert: it took countless twists and turns before we figured out who the real Peter was. But hey, no hard feelings! Ben’s made a comeback as Scarlet Spider, beloved by fans everywhere. So, our Spider-Noir is ready to share his broody charm with the audience!

Here Comes the Black Cat!

Now let’s talk about the fabulous Felicia Hardy, aka Black Cat! Debuting just five years after Ben, Felicia is a rich heiress turned master cat burglar. She’s got the antics that can make Spider-Man roll his eyes while he secretly admires her style! In Spider-Noir, she’s played by Li Jun Li, and let’s just say she won’t be in any skin-tight suits. Nope, she’s trading that in for a sultry lounge singer vibe, and she’s working at a club owned by none other than Silvermane. Cat Hardy is definitely a classic femme fatale that’ll keep our boy Ben on his toes!

Meet Robbie Robertson!

And what would Spider-Man be without his trusty cast of characters? Say hello to Robbie Robertson, played by the talented Lamorne Morris. He’s a tenacious reporter hot on the trails of both Silvermane and our favorite wall-crawler. Since his debut in the comics, Robbie has been a staple character who balances out the loud-mouthed J. Jonah Jameson. For once, we’re excited to see Robbie get the spotlight! While he’s often been sidelined in past adaptations, Spider-Noir gives him a chance to shine. Get ready to love Robbie as he takes to the streets of New York City in search of the truth!

Mark Your Calendars!
