The very first teaser for "Spider-Noir" has leaked online, starring Nicolas Cage as the titular superhero. The teaser is only 30 seconds long, but it uses its time well, giving us a stylistic and impressive view of the show that's channeling "Sin City" in all the right ways. It was first viewed at Amazon's upfront presentation. You can watch the teaser below.

The series' official synopsis reads, "'Spider-Noir' is a live-action series based on the Marvel comic 'Spider-Man Noir'. 'Spider-Noir' tells the story of an aging and down-on-his-luck private investigator (Cage) in 1930s New York, who is forced to grapple with his past life as the city's one and only superhero."

While we don't have a more precise premiere date yet for "Spider-Noir" than 2026, we do know the series will premiere domestically on MGM+ and then internationally on Amazon Prime the next day. The series will also be available to viewers in both black-and-white and color.
"Spider-Noir" stars Nicolas Cage, Lamorne Morris, Brendan Gleeson, Abraham Popoola, Li Jun Li, Karen Rodriguez, and Jack Huston.
Though "Spider-Noir" marks the first time Nicolas Cage (or anyone for that matter) has played Spider-Man Noir in live-action, he previously voiced the hero in 2018's "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse". He's expected to return and reprise the voice role for the third entry in the film series, "Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-verse," which is scheduled to hit theaters June 4, 2027.
This is also not Nicolas Cage's first Marvel rodeo. Though it wasn't a part of the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe, Cage starred as the titular fiery-headed hero in 2007's "Ghost Rider" as well as in the 2011 sequel, "Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance".
Spider-Man Noir first appeared in 2009's "Spider-Man: Noir" #1, and was created as part of a series of "Noir" transformations of Marvel heroes such as Luke Cage and Iron Man. Spider-Man Noir proved to be the most popular of them all and became a regular fixture in events bringing together all of Spider-Man's multiverse variants like "Spider-Verse" and "Spider-Geddon". In fact, Spider-Man Noir was abruptly killed off in the latter event, but was soon resurrected, no doubt in part because of his increased popularity thanks to "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse".

Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors After a long day's work, it's hard to muster the energy to do anything other than heat up some food and binge your favorite Netflix shows like "Bridgerton" or "Stranger Things." But what if you could get paid just to watch Netflix? More Entertainment: Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein – Everything We Know, Trailer, Release Date Flick Offers claims just that.

The streaming giant has revealed the incoming and outgoing shows and films for its August 2023 Flick Offers Netflix Review Job Site a Scam? Let's cut to the chase: is Flick Offers real or just a scam? To put it bluntly, this site and other sites like it are some of the biggest scams online right now. According to Scam-Detector, Flick Offers has a score of 6.9 out of 100, meaning it is one of the least trustworthy sites possible. To make matters worse, Scam-Detector states that there are massive risk factors related to phishing, malware, and spam if you were to click any of the links on their web page. Additionally, it appears that the site is not affiliated with Netflix in any way, despite slapping a big red "N" on their front page. This is a massive red flag when considering the legitimacy of any website like this. The fact of the matter is, if a company were going to pay you to review their content, they wouldn't do it through a website that isn't affiliated with them. How to Actually Get Paid to Watch Netflix So it appears that Flick Offers and sites like it are a massive scam. Is there a way to actually get paid to watch Netflix? Actually, there is! More Entertainment: Netflix Releases Mysterious Trailer For Next 'Knives Out' Film Known as a Netflix tagger, these individuals are paid to watch, analyze, and categorize content. According to taggers make about $54,000 per year, or about $25 per hour. This is far off from the promised $36 per hour promised by Flick Offers. What Jobs is Netflix Hiring For? If you are looking to get a job with Netflix, your best bet would be to do it through their actual jobs website. While it doesn't seem that any tagger jobs are open at the moment, there are well over 500 open positions at the time of writing that are waiting to be filled. However, if you are looking for a quick way to make a ton of money just for binging your favorite series, it is best to look elsewhere.

Edmund White, acclaimed novelist and pioneer of queer literature, dies at 85
Edmund White, a pioneer of queer literature who broke ground with his semi-autobiographical novels chronicling gay life and the gay revolution, died on Tuesday at his home in Manhattan. He was 85. White's agent, Bill Clegg, confirmed his death to Entertainment Weekly, saying the author died of natural causes. "Ed was a groundbreaking writer whose candid depictions of gay life reshaped American literature," Clegg said in a statement to EW. "As a novelist, critic, memoirist, and biographer, he expanded the boundaries of identity and desire on the page and in the culture. He was also a wickedly funny, deeply generous, brilliant man who was beloved by many. He will be much missed. " White had been H.I.V. positive since the 1980s, and survived two major strokes in 2012 and a heart attack in 2014. Despite his medical scares, the author continued adding to his prolific literary catalogue well into his later years. His most recently published work, titled The Loves of My Life: A Sex Memoir, was released in January 2025. White was born in Cincinnati in 1940 and moved to the Chicago area with his mother when his parents divorced. He wrote books and plays even as a young child, although he didn't publish his first book until 1973, after he spent years as a journalist at various publications such as Newsweek, Time-Life Books, Saturday Review, and Horizon. Starting with his debut novel, Forgetting Elena, White made his mark in the publishing world, writing honestly about the queer experience and chronicling the evolution of a community no longer afraid to declare and celebrate its existence. He wrote more than 30 fiction and nonfiction books, including notable novels like A Boy's Own Story and The Married Man, which drew from his life, and Fanny: A Fiction, a historical novel about the author Frances Trollope and social reformer Frances Wright. Several of his works were best-sellers. The Chicago Tribune once called him "the godfather of queer lit." "Among gay writers of his generation, Edmund White has emerged as the most versatile man of letters," cultural critic Morris Dickstein wrote in The New York Times in 1995. "A cosmopolitan writer with a deep sense of tradition, he has bridged the gap between gay subcultures and a broader literary audience." White also published five memoirs: 2009's My Lives in 2005; City Boy, about his life in New York in the 1960s and 1970s; 2014's Inside a Pearl: My Years in Paris; 2018's The Unpunished Vice, about his tastes in literature; and The Loves of My Life. He was the recipient of Lambda Literary's 2018 Visionary Award, the National Book Foundation's Lifetime Achievement Award in 2019, and the PEN/Saul Bellow Award for Achievement in American Fiction in 2018. France made him Chevalier (and later Officier) de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in 1993. White taught at Brown University and became a professor of creative writing at Princeton University. In early 1982, shortly before he was diagnosed as H.I.V. positive, White cofounded and served as the inaugural president of the Gay Men's Health Crisis, a collective care unit aimed at advocacy amid the AIDS epidemic. He moved to France the following year, eventually returning to the U.S. in the late '90s. White is survived by his husband, Michael Carroll, whom he married in 2013, and his older sister, Margaret Fleming. Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly
