Prime Video pulls the plug on Nicolas Cage's Spider-Noir after one season

Prime Video and MGM+ announced that Spider-Noir, the eight-episode series starring Nicolas Cage as a 1930s private investigator, will not be renewed for a second season. The show, which debuted on MGM+ on May 25 and streamed on Prime Video the following day, received a 92% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and secured 11 Emmy nominations, the most for any Prime Video program this year. Produced through Amazon’s partnership with Sony Pictures TV to develop characters from the Sony Pictures Universe of Marvel Characters, Spider-Noir was the first Marvel-related series to launch under that deal.

Despite strong viewership—2.6 billion streaming minutes in its first six weeks—and a cast that includes Lamorne Morris, Li Jun Li, and Brendan Gleeson, the series will end after its inaugural run. Showrunners Oren Uziel and Steve Lightfoot, along with executive producers Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, Amy Pascal, and others, had hoped to continue the story, but the decision to cancel was confirmed as the show entered the Emmy weekend.
