- Quick Answer: Prime Video is developing a Spider-Man "Clone Saga" series focusing on Ben Reilly and Kaine Parker, written by Kelvin Yu following Spider-Noir's cancellation.
Prime Video is currently developing a new Spider-Man TV series based on the infamous "Clone Saga" storyline from the comics.
Following the cancellation of Spider-Noir after one season, fans have been wondering what's next for Sony in their Spider-Man universe franchise and whether they are working on another TV project that will serve as a follow-up. Rumors have long suggested they are eyeing another TV series based on the IP.
What to Expect in Spider-Man Clone Saga TV Series
Deadline recently confirmed that Prime Video is nearing a series order for a Spider-Man TV series based on the "Clone Saga" storyline from Sony Pictures Television.
The show will focus on Ben Reilly and Kaine Parker, who will likely be introduced as clones of Spider-Man. However, due to rights issues, they won't likely be introduced as clones of Peter Parker himself.
Kelvin Yu is working on the script and potentially will serve as showrunner. Amy Pascal, Phil Lord, and Christopher Miller, who all served as executive producers of Spider-Noir, are expected to serve the same duty for the project.
While the storyline will be inspired by "Clone Saga," the report cautioned that there might be significant changes in the adaptation.
Some have claimed that the series will "follow Ben and Kaine as they grapple with their newly discovered identities as clones while also facing other clones," while others have stated it "may alter Ben and Kaine’s origins as clones, and they could take on new identities."
For now, stay tuned for more details regarding the project in the coming weeks, especially the news on which actors they might cast to play the lead characters.
Why Was Spider-Noir Canceled
The official details regarding why Prime Video decided to cancel Spider-Noir are still unknown, but reports indicate the ratings were respectable, though not at a blockbuster level to make it viable for a second season renewal, given the series high production costs.
The series received acclaim from critics and fans who praised its black-and-white cinematography, craftsmanship, and Nicolas Cage's performance as the titular character. It won five Emmy Awards out of 11 nominations.
It follows Ben Reilly, a seasoned, down-on-his-luck private investigator in 1930s New York, who is forced to grapple with his past life, following a deeply personal tragedy, as the city's one and only superhero. The main cast includes Nicolas Cage, Lamorne Morris, Li Jun Li, Abraham Popoola, Karen Rodriguez, Jack Huston, and Brendan Gleeson.
All eight episodes of the series are streaming on Prime Video. Viewers can watch it in "Authentic Black & White" or "True-Hue Full Color" format.
