Nicolas Cage Breaks Silence on Spider-Noir Cancellation: 'Perfect'
Despite 851 million viewing minutes in its first week, Prime Video said the acclaimed series did not keep enough viewers for another season.
- Prime Video confirmed that Spider-Noir, starring Nicolas Cage as 1930s New York private investigator Ben Reilly, will not return for a second season following its May 27, 2026, debut.
- Amazon determined the show failed to maintain sufficient viewer attention, while high production costs—escalated by filming both color and black-and-white versions—made renewal economically unfeasible.
- Despite the cancellation, the series earned 11 Emmy Award nominations and 2.6 billion viewing minutes in its first six weeks, holding a 92% Tomatometer score on Rotten Tomatoes.
- Fans expressed frustration, with one viewer writing on X that it is "WILD how streaming works now," while Cage told Deadline, "For me, one season is perfect."
- While Spider-Noir concludes, Prime Video plans to continue its collaboration with Sony, with a new project based on Marvel characters currently under development.
