If nothing else, Nicolas Cage delivers.
As one of the only actors in Hollywood whose commitment to a role is entirely visceral no matter if the finished product is panned by fans or critics, Cage can always be counted to deliver pure entertainment. And his latest role is no exception.
Following yesterday’s first look images and poster drop, MGM and Amazon Studios have now launched the teaser trailers for the series, and they're everything you'd want from an actor like Cage.
View this post on InstagramWith Spider-Noir, Cage and his castmates offer a peek into the dark underbelly of a 1930s-era New York City -- "It’s a ‘hard-boiled’ detective drama first, and a superhero story second," Parade wrote earlier this week.
This corner of the Marvel Universe has been reimagined into a shadow-drenched classic noir atmosphere, as eerie as it is theatrical. Cage plays Ben Reilly, a soured private investigator who gets his Spidey senses, brawls in bar fights, and comes unhinged in a way only Cage can pull off. In an interview with Esquire, he called the characrter “70 percent Humphrey Bogart, and 30 percent Bugs Bunny.”
In a move that echoes Godzilla Minus One and Godzilla Minus One: Minus Color, the studio is producing two versions of the series: one in black and white, to mimic the 1940s comics, per Esquire, and the other in True Color, reflecting the Marvel Comics that inspired it. The trailers were released in both versions as well. Watch them both -- it's a fun five-minute distraction you deserve right now.
“The truth is, they both work and they're beautiful for different reasons,” Cage told the magazine. “The color is super saturated and gorgeous. I think teenage viewers will appreciate the color, but I also want them to have the option. If they want to experience the concept in black and white, maybe that would instill some interest in them to look at earlier movies and enjoy that as an art form as well.”
Also in the cast are Lamorne Morris, Li Jun Li, Karen Rodriguez, Abraham Popoola, Jack Huston, and Brendan Gleeson, with Lukas Haas, Cameron Britton, Amanda Schull, and Andrew Robinson guest-starring.
Behind the lens, we have Oren Uziel (Mortal Combat, Escape Room) and Steve Lightfoot (Hannibal, Narcos) showrunning and executive-producing. Harry Bradbeer of Enola Holmes and Killing Eve fame directed the first two episodes. He's also an executive producer.
Spider-Noir premieres on MGM+ and Prime Video on May 27.
