Nicolas Cage steps out of the recording booth and into the trench coat for this moody, live-action 1930s detective saga.
Series Analysis:
Trade the spandex for a trench coat. Spider-Noir drops Nicolas Cage into the monochromatic underbelly of 1930s New York, reimagining the web-slinger not as a high-flying youth, but as an aging, down-on-his-luck private investigator. The anticipation for this MGM+ series is thick enough to cut with a switchblade, as fans wait to see how the hard-boiled aesthetic translates to live action. It’s a grayscale world of shadows, moral ambiguity, and cheap whiskey, far removed from the colorful chaos of the multiverse. With the premiere looming like a storm front over the Hudson, setting a tracker is the only way to crack this case before the clues go cold.
Tone: Hard-boiled, Atmospheric, Cynical
