In 1930s New York City, down-on-his-luck private investigator Ben Reilly (Nicolas Cage) grapples with his past as the city's one and only superhero while untangling a sinister conspiracy.
Cast and characters
BEN REILLY (Nicolas Cage)
A charming but weathered retired vigilante with spider-like abilities who is too old and broken, both literally and figuratively, to suit up the way he used to. Instead, he works as a private investigator, taking low-level cases and staying out of the ones that involve high-profile names, until a seemingly ordinary missing person investigation leads him to uncover a conspiracy with the fate of the city hanging on the balance.
SILVIO MANFREDI (Brendan Gleeson)
An aging crime boss who controls the New York City criminal underworld. A philosopher with a drone-eye view who is equally affable and dangerous.
ROBBIE ROBERTSON (Lamorne Morris)
A dedicated journalist trying to make it with the odds stacked against him, taking on riskier stories that no one else would touch in order to catch attention and a paycheck. He is willing to do whatever is necessary for his career.
Neat
Looks cool and like something different. Ted Turner still won though, they're releasing it in B&W and color.
This actually looks really cool
Why did they need to call him Ben Reilly
YURI WATANABE (Li Jun Li)
A nightclub singer with secret ties to several crime organizations in New York City.
FLINT MARKO (Abraham Popoola)
A World War I veteran looking for an opportunity to get ahead who becomes Yuri Watanabe's enforcer. He has a has a condition that causes him to turn into the Sandman, and when he switches between identities, he has no memories of what his alter ego did while in control.
The movies have dibs on Peter Parker.
Rights with Spider-Man between TV and Movies are utterly fucked.
the only Spider-Man worth reading nowadays
What are the odds they shoehorn in a le heckin Nazis bad propaganda
Go back, Anon Babbletard.
Yep
Yes I liked the Rocketeer and look forward to more nazi goons getting their shit pushed in.
taken down
Anybody got a backup?
hot
Because its lazy, artless pastiche that assumes all genre fiction of the past (weird, penny dreadful, science fiction adventure, mysteries) fall under the same aesthetic umbrella as "noir." This means Indiana Jones, which was 40s adventure (fighting nazis makes sense) and new york stories about crime families are treated like the same thing.
he has no memories of what his alter ego did while in control
Let's see jow the actor does with that.
Ide watch Nic Cage scream and shit for 90 mins let alone comic book related.
Trumps gonna get his shit kicked in god willing
i wish this is real
I'd love this about ten-twelve years ago but you fucking know it's just going to be "Nazis bad" propaganda for two hours.
"Nazis bad" propaganda
and that is bad because?
I think the nazis are bad, I don't need propaganda to agree with me.
By who? Anyone who disagrees he will send to El Salvador and no one can stop him
They should do "Nazis good" propaganda instead amirite?
Because it's actually saying current Republicans are bad
You ever find it funny how modern works set in the 20s or 30s are all about evil Nazi conspiracies, while people who actually lived in that time were only concerned with communist subversion?
thoughever
You are brown.
In white. A mix of polish, and Italian
The synopsis and character blurbs don't even mention Nazis, you schizo.
Enjoyed the first couple runs of noir Spider-Man comics
Though the the most recent one that went full Indiana Jones wasn't quite as good in my opinion.
Can't open it
polish
italian
white
lol
They don't want Peter doing R rated stuff
This whole concept is just a rip off of Sandman Mystery Theatre.
But that doesn't make sense! Noir can't see color!
I do not know any of his lore but if that's true it's fucking neat.
Republicans are sending minorities to overseas slave camps and imprisoning people for writing blogs, they deserve criticism
Nice headcanon
Faggot
It's explained in Into the Spider-Verse.
Like with werewolf by night that guarantees it'll be unwatchable logting wise
What’s logting?
Only reason it's being made.
I want Ben Reilly in more adaptations
At least it's not Chasm.
That finger curled when he was an alternate skin in Rivals
