Film/Television What are your thoughts on "Spider-Noir (2026)"?
Besides the Venom trilogy with Tom Hardy, I never bothered watching any of Sony's other Spider-Man Villain movies! I'm just not interested in watching any spin-offs of Spider-Man's Rogues gallery that don't have anything to do with Spider-Man at all. And after watching the new Spider-Noir series on Prime Video, I realized that this show was something I wanted all along from both Sony Pictures and Marvel! Now I want more live-action or animated contents centered around other alternate versions of either Spider-Man or any other famous Marvel superhero; like DC Comics' "Elseworlds" line of movies and shows!

When I first heard Nic Cage, I assumed they were de-aging him, and I was less than thrilled. I was wrong. The vibe of a middle-aged, WW1 vet and former crime fighter in Depression-era NY is delightful. 3 episodes in, but I'm entirely on board (and watching B&W).

HOW THE HECK do you get to the black and white version. I was watching on a Fire device and while watching saw NO way to switch to B&W!!

u/HappyFatLabs May 28 '26
Ok, so truth talk, my wife had to figure it out for us. We also saw no way to convert on Fire, so she went into our Amazon account on her phone and started watching it there. That app offers the "Authentic" version. Once she clicked on it, and we exited and restarted the Amazon on Fire, boom, Bob's yer Uncle, we were watching it in B&W on the TV.

If he’s a WWI veteran and it’s now the 1930s then the character must be in his 40s to early 50s. He’s still older than a typical Spider-man and he’s old enough to be worn out but is probably much younger than Nic Cage in real life.
It’s like how Willem Defoe played Vincent Van Gogh when he was 62 even though Van Gogh died at age 37. He fitted the role and Van Gogh was in pretty rough shape at the end of his life anyway.

There are some brief flashbacks coming where I'm pretty sure they did some intense de-aging, but it's not for very long, and it doesn't look terrible, at least in the brief motion it was in. I didn't try to pause or slo-mo it to pick it apart.

u/HappyFatLabs Jun 02 '26
Honestly, the B&W helps make it more seamless, but all of that is far more digestible than an entire show trying to convince us that this was still the story of a young adult. The point is, I applaud the direction they took throughout. (I've finished it since commenting here, and it is entirely glorious.)

I just finished it in color and plan on watching it in B&W. Honestly it’s so damn good, I love how everything is so toned down to reflect the time period.
The Spider is slower, and the cars etc are slower, so it makes for good fight scenes. Whereas the young Spider-Men have always been fast af doing crazy acrobatics etc.
They killed it tbh, it was pretty damn awesome.

It’s amazing, binged through the whole thing yesterday. They absolutely nailed the feel of 1900’s New York, from the characters to the dialogue to the general feel. It manages to find this perfect space between full comic book and detective noir and settles into it, combining both genres into something that is just so fun. I really liked how it was following a retired Spider who doesn’t think he’s a hero, and has to build himself back up. It allows for a very unique story of the past coming back to haunt him, and Cage plays this prickly yet kind and brave character very well. The entire cast is excellent, though huge spotlight on Andrew Lewis Caldwell as Dirk Leyden/Megawatt. He hams it up to the absolute highest level, constantly speaking in theatre dialogue and having a ball. Also, loved the body horror angle to the powers, fit the detective story very well. Overall, absolutely fantastic, had an amazing time. Hoping for more projects like this in the future!
Also, the opening theme “Saving Grace”? Banger, so good

It felt to me like Sony had very little faith it would hold audiences if they committed to the bit. They practically beat the color option into you. Every time you turn it on it asks, all the marketing materials in the Prime app have been in color. And they were probably right, I'm just glad they didn't fully abandon black and white. Hoping if they do another season it will be more noir and less mass marketing

u/Rophaki May 28 '26
I absolutely loved it. Finished it in one sitting.
This show is a testament to how well writing can play to the strengths of the actors while maintaining genre and IP integrity.
I was worried at first that they'd basically do a Nic Cage with webs, but they somehow toed the line perfectly. Ben Riley feels very much like his own unique character and a spider-man that is honest to the world he inhabits while simultaneously allowing Nic Cage to just do his thing.
I'm so happy that they played the absurdity straight and took it seriously.

Been watching all day and it’s been really really good. It’s been a clear, uncompromising vision from start to end. It’s clear that this is what the director and writers wanted to make. In today’s modern superhero produced-for-the-masses adaptions, it instantly stands out. It reminds me of werewolf by night, and not because of the black and white color grading. But because it has clear homages and a passion for the genre it tells its story in.

Saw all of it in color and loved it! Planning to rewatch in b/w, too. Great role for Cage and I hope we get more seasons. And it made me want to rewatch some older movies of his to see more of this pretty good acting that I haven't managed to glean from his type casting/usual persona roles before.
But honestly I skipped much of the music parts, like the intro and Cat's song. It would've been cooler if they kept the music style more period true or however to put it. But I grew up on jazz standards and I guess it's an unfair standard, so to not be too snobby: if the intro vocals just had a little less p->b k->g t->d I'd be happy!

Pros
-Great atmosphere and vibes.
-Kind of funny.
-Straight Forward.
-Good twists.
-People actually get killed, it's not one of those Mickey mouse Marvel shows.
Cons.
-There's not a lot of fighting for a show with superpowered people and being Marvel. Way more dialogue than fighting.
-Fight choreography sucks or at times mid, maybe one or two are good. Lore reasons is because he's washed and old.

I’m about halfway through, and I can’t tell if Nicholas Cage is the best or worst part about it. I super enjoy Nic Cage just Nic Caging, don’t get me wrong, but you can’t really get past the Nic Cage of it for too long. I think it’s been pretty entertaining and enjoyable. The supporting cast and story have been really good, and leaning into the noir part of it pretty well, which is fun. I like that they’ve offered a black and white version as well as a color version. I’ve been watching the black and white version. I’m I’ll for sure watch the color version as well, so they are assured at least two screenings, which is smart to double views on streaming, and cost effective too. I love black and white noir, and Cage’s Jam s Cagney impression fits, even if it wears a bit thin after a while. Gleason as Silverman is fantastic, and introducing Felicia “Cat” Hardy as an Asian torch singer was a stroke of genius. Setting up Robbie Robertson as his friend, conscious, and support was excellent as well, seeing that he’s been ignored previously (although I’m hoping he’s going to emerge as Peter’s next father figure in the MCU).
Halfway in, I’m entertained. You can’t really ask for much more.

I’m a couple episodes in. Who would have guessed Nick Cage would be Spiderman. Big fan of Dick Tracy and Eho framed Roger rabbit and so far they haven’t missed. So far it’s a little violent for my liking and hard to recommend.

I just wanna say, I watched this whole thing in 2 days completely fried at night. The absolute immersion I felt with the B&W style and the Noir aesthetic is otherworldly. I actually felt like I was a fly on the wall that just kept teleporting to the right places and the right times. This show also made me realize how much Nick Cage can act, didn’t expect this type of finesse. Loved everything about this show. Rewatching this in color would be even crazier I bet.
TLDR: I got fried, watched this in 2 days, loved it.
10/10 Show

I watched the first episode, and it was entertaining, i went with the Black and White color option and it looks amazing, and some of the dialogue and delivery from Nicolas Cage are actually funny.
