Nicolas Cage is set to star in Spider-Man Noir, bringing the iconic, alternate version of Spider-Man to life in an action-packed, visually stunning live-action adaptation.

Known for its darker tone, the Spider-Man Noir universe is set in a bleak, crime-ridden 1930s New York. This film is expected to explore Peter Parker’s darker persona as a trench coat-clad vigilante dealing with mob bosses, corrupt politicians, and ruthless crime lords.

Cage, who previously voiced Spider-Man Noir in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, will now embody the character in full, giving life to his gritty and hardened approach to justice. Fans are eager to see how Cage will bring his intense acting style to the role, mixing his distinctive voice with an aggressive, noir-drenched performance. The movie promises to highlight the moral complexity of Parker’s fight against evil in a world without clear heroes.

As a major departure from the high-tech, quippy Spider-Man we know in the MCU, Spider-Man Noir will be driven by a brutal, vintage aesthetic, with intense action sequences set against the backdrop of a city gripped by depression-era turmoil. Producers are looking to weave in classic film noir elements—shadowy cinematography, morally ambiguous characters, and a deeply introspective narrative.
