The “Spider-Man Noir” character, recently voiced by Nicolas Cage in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, is getting his own live action series at Amazon, Variety reports this morning.
Variety details, “The untitled series will follow an older, grizzled superhero in 1930s New York City. An individual with knowledge of the project says that the show will be set in its own universe and the main character will not be Peter Parker.”
The site also explains, “The Spider-Man Noir comics originally debuted in 2009 as part of the Marvel Noir universe. That version of the iconic superhero lives in New York during the Great Depression. He is bitten by a spider hidden inside a stolen artifact, causing him to have visions of a spider-god who grants him superpowers.”
Oren Uziel (Mortal Kombat, The Lost City) will write and executive produce the “Spider-Man Noir” series, developing alongside Phil Lord & Christopher Miller and Amy Pascal.
Sony Pictures Television is the studio behind the upcoming series.
Amazon also recently announced the Marvel/Sony series “Silk: Spider Society.”
