Here's a look at both versions of the sneak peek that were released earlier today for Prime Video's Spider-Noir, courtesy of Rotten Tomatoes TV – followed by a look back at what else we've learned about the series before it debuts on May 27th:

Here's a look back at the "Authentic Black & White" and "True-Hue Full Color" versions of the official Spider-Noir trailer that were released during CCXP Mexico 2026 (followed by a look back at what else we've learned about the series):

"Same character, different universe," the showrunner explained during a recent interview regarding which version of the character viewers will be getting. "It's a different flavour of that character, even though it's still Nic's voice. It's not a continuation of 'Into The Spider-Verse.' Once Phil [Lord] and Chris [Miller] introduced the idea of the multiverse, I think you're allowed to take things and make them your own." Sharing that his and Cage's goal was "to make a version of Spider-Man that no-one had ever seen before," Uziel revealed that Cage "spoke his own lines back, with pleasure and glee" while screening the season. "It was one of the most rewarding things I've ever experienced."

Based on the Marvel Comics' character, MGM+ and Prime Video's Spider-Noir tells the story of Ben Reilly (Cage), a seasoned, down-on-his-luck private investigator in 1930s New York, who is forced to grapple with his past life, following a deeply personal tragedy, as the city's one and only superhero. Along with Cage, the series also stars Lamorne Morris (Fargo, New Girl), Li Jun Li (Sinners, Babylon), Karen Rodriguez (The Hunting Wives, Acapulco), Abraham Popoola (Atlas, Slow Horses), Jack Huston (Boardwalk EmpireDay of The Fight), and Brendan Gleeson (The Banshees of Inisherin, Harry Potter). Guest stars include Lukas Haas, Cameron Britton, Cary Christopher, Michael Kostroff, Scott MacArthur, Joe Massingill, Whitney Rice, Amanda Schull, Andrew Caldwell, Amy Aquino, Andrew Robinson, and Kai Caster.

Ben Reilly (Nicolas Cage) – Back in the day, Ben Reilly was the superhero known as "The Spider". After a personal tragedy, he stepped away from his heroic alter ego. Only an extraordinary case could call this down-on-his-luck private investigator to drop the ordinary man act and put his mask back on.

Robbie Robertson (Lamorne Morris) – A dedicated journalist trying to make it in 1930s New York with the odds stacked against him. He is willing to do whatever is necessary for his career as well as his best friend, Ben.

Cat Hardy (Li Jun Li) – The star attraction at the premiere nightclub in New York. It may seem like she is always looking out for herself, but the truth is more complex than meets the eye.

Janet (Karen Rodriguez) – Smart, scrappy, and loyal secretary to Ben Reilly. She wants to help her boss and his small business become successful, and she has zero problem speaking truth to power.

Spider-Noir is produced by Sony Pictures Television exclusively for MGM+ and Prime Video. Emmy Award-winning director Harry Bradbeer (Fleabag, Killing Eve) directed and executive-produced the first two episodes. Oren Uziel (The Lost City, 22 Jump Street) and Steve Lightfoot (Marvel's The Punisher, Shantaram) serve as co-showrunners and executive producers. Uziel and Lightfoot developed the series with the Academy Award-winning team behind Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse: Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, and Amy Pascal. Lord and Miller executive produce for their shingle Lord Miller, along with Aditya Sood and Dan Shear. Amy Pascal also serves as an executive producer via Pascal Pictures. Cage and Pavlina Hatoupis also serve as executive producers.
