 Spider-Man Noir is getting his own television show

Not to be outdone by the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s ever-expanding roster of Disney+ shows or DC Studios’ new plan for film and television synergy, Sony is forging ahead with its own TV plans. Sony is the owner of Spider-Man and his friends and foes, otherwise known as the SSU (Sony Spider-Man

 Universe, apparently). But while the blockbuster Peter  elopement packages Parker continues to have one foot in the SSU and one in the MCU, a different version of Spider-Man is set to storm the small screen over at Prime Video.

That’ll be Spider-Man Noir, a character that first appeared in the comics in 2009 and was made famous on the big screen by Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse (in which he was voiced by Nicolas Cage). That version was an alternate universe Peter Parker, but according to Variety, this new live-action version exists in his own universe and will not be Peter. He will, however, be “an older, grizzled superhero in 1930s New York City.”
