Spider-Noir Showrunner Reveals More Spider-Verse Series in Development

Spider-Noir Showrunner Teases New Spider-Verse Series

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse begins with Peter Parker declaring, “There’s only one Spider-Man, and you’re looking at him.” The film quickly subverts this claim, introducing Miles Morales, Peter B. Parker, and other Spider-people from the multiverse. This premise—that there are many ways to be Spider-Man—is central to the upcoming Spider-Noir series on Prime Video, according to showrunner Oren Uziel.

“I know there are others in the works,” Uziel told SFX Magazine (via Total Film). “I’ve talked a bit to the people working on them and I think they are very exciting. They’re following a little bit of that same formula [as Spider-Noir], that same idea of taking a genre and elevating it by putting a Spider-variant into it. It opens up a whole new world, and it’s just an extremely exciting opportunity.”

Spider-Noir: A Hard-Boiled Take on Spider-Man

Spider-Noir brings the fedora-wearing Spider-Man from Into the Spider-Verse to live-action, with Nicolas Cage reprising his role. Set in a stylish 1940s-inspired dimension, the series pits Spider-Noir against gangster Silvermane (Brendan Gleeson), with allies including secretary Janet (Karen Rodriguez), reporter Robbie Robertson (Lamorne Morris), and potential femme fatale Cat Hardy (Li Jun Li).

The trailer reveals classic Spider-Verse villains adapted for this noir setting, including Sandman (Jack Huston) and Electro (Joe Massingill). While Spider-Noir leans into 1940s crime tropes, Uziel emphasizes the vast creative potential of the Spider-Verse concept.

Other Spider-Verse Characters with Untapped Potential

The Spider-Verse films have introduced characters with strong comic followings, such as Spider-Gwen (Hailee Steinfeld) and Spider-Man 2099 (Oscar Isaac). However, other variants remain underutilized, including:

• Spider-Mobile (Peter Parkedcar) – A motorized Spider-Man variant.
• Spider-Rex (Pter Ptarker) – A dinosaur-themed Spider-Man.
• Spider-Punk – Already in development, with Daniel Kaluuya returning as Hobie Brown.

The Spider-Verse films also featured Spider-Ham, voiced by John Mulaney, a Looney Tunes-style variant who could summon giant mallets and leave singing birds floating around enemies. This version aligns with the comic character, who debuted in Marvel Tails Starring Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham (1983) by Larry Hama, Tom DeFalco, and Mark Armstrong.

The Endless Possibilities of the Spider-Verse

From established favorites to unexplored concepts, the Spider-Verse offers limitless storytelling opportunities. As Uziel notes, each new variant—whether grounded in noir, punk, or prehistoric themes—expands the mythos in fresh, exciting ways. The upcoming series promise to weave an even more complex web of Spider-Man adventures.

Spider-Noir is set to premiere on Prime Video.
