Amazon has officially canceled the live-action Spider-Noir series, meaning it will not receive a second season on Prime Video. The decision comes despite the show's distinctive approach to the iconic Marvel character.
While a specific reason for the cancellation was not provided by Amazon, reports suggest that while the series had a strong debut, its viewership declined faster than other popular Prime Video offerings like Reacher. This drop-off in the top ten daily rankings ultimately appears to have sealed its fate.
Spider-Noir was notable for its unconventional take on the character, featuring a 62-year-old lead based on his portrayal in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. Prime Video offered the series in both black-and-white and color, a decision that doubled post-production efforts. The show also presented unique interpretations of classic Spider-Man villains such as Sandman, Tombstone, and Black Cat.
Despite the cancellation, Amazon and Sony reportedly remain interested in developing further projects based on Spider-Man characters that Sony holds adaptation rights to. While a series centered on Silk has been scrapped, discussions are ongoing for multiple projects, with one unspecified character-focused series reportedly nearing a series order.
The single season of Spider-Noir concluded without cliffhangers, offering a definitive wrap-up for its narrative. The series is available for streaming on Prime Video, with viewers able to choose between the color and black-and-white versions.
