'Spider-Noir', a new series on Prime Video, brings the noir variant of Spider-Man back to life, with Nicolas Cage reprising his role as Ben Reilly, also known as 'The Spider'. Set in the 1930s, the series opens with Reilly having retired from crime-fighting until he is drawn back into action by the sultry nightclub singer Cat Hardy, played by Lee Jun Li. Hardy seeks his help to find her lover, Flint Marko, leading Reilly into a tangled web of conspiracies and mutating superpowers. While the plot may feel somewhat thin and resolves through flashbacks, the series compensates with its stunning visuals, shot in both black-and-white and color, capturing the essence of classic film noir. Cinematographer Darran Tiernan's work highlights the series' aesthetic, filled with deep shadows and striking angles, reminiscent of iconic films like 'The Maltese Falcon' and 'Double Indemnity'. Cage delivers a performance that balances world-weariness with moments of humor, while the supporting cast, including Brendan Gleeson and Jack Huston, adds depth to their roles. 'Spider-Noir' premieres on May 27, promising a stylish and entertaining experience for fans of the genre.
