Nicolas Cage Reacts To Spider-Noir Cancellation: 'For Me, One Season Is Perfect'
Apparently, Nicolas Cage harbors no ill will over Spider-Noir ending after just one season.
Nicolas Cage has expressed no regret over Spider-Noir's abrupt cancellation after just one season. In a statement to Deadline, the actor said, "For me, one season is perfect, having said what I wanted to say with this dangerous, innovative, pop-art Spider-Man." Cage's comments come less than three months after the series premiered on MGM+ and Prime Video in late May.
The show, based on a Marvel character, followed Ben Reilly, a private investigator in 1930s New York who struggles with his past identity as Spider-Man. Cage was joined by a star-studded cast including Lamorne Morris, Li Jun Li, Karen Rodriguez, Abraham Popoola, Jack Huston, and Brendan Gleeson. Despite receiving 11 Emmy nominations for its production, Spider-Noir was not renewed for a second season.
However, Cage may soon return to television as he is reportedly set to star in the upcoming Prime Video biopic about NFL legend John Madden.
