Prime Video Nears Greenlight for New Spider-Man Series Inspired by the Comics' Clone Saga
Kelvin Yu will write the series, which would debut on MGM+ before streaming on Prime Video and center on Ben Reilly and Kaine Parker.
- Amazon MGM Studios and Sony Pictures Television are nearing a series order for a live-action Spider-Man spinoff based on Marvel's 'Clone Saga,' with writer Kelvin Yu penning the show for Prime Video.
- The story centers on Ben Reilly and Kaine Parker, two clones of Spider-Man who have each operated as the Scarlet Spider, adapting the famously 'convoluted' 1990s comic arc.
- Producers Amy Pascal, Phil Lord, and Christopher Miller are executive-producing the series under the ongoing Amazon-Sony deal, with the show set to debut on MGM+ before streaming via Prime Video.
- The project follows the recent cancellation of 'Spider-Noir' and remains part of a broader push to adapt Sony's Universe of Marvel Characters for television across multiple series.
- Sources caution the screen adaptation may deviate significantly from the original storylines, with conflicting reports on whether the series will alter Reilly and Parker's identities as clones.
