Watch Nicolas Cage kick black-and-white butt in this trailer for Spider-Noir
We finally have some actual footage of the upcoming Spider-Noir series, thanks to a teaser trailer . This is a real boon for fans of the original Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse , as the show brings back Nicolas Cage as Spider-Man: Noir.
It's also live action, so we get to see a real-life Nic Cage kicking butt as a down-on-his-luck private detective that's bitten by a magical spider. You can likely guess what happens to him after that. Amazon says that the character will be "forced to grapple with his past life as the city's one and only superhero." To view this content, you'll need to update your privacy settings. Please click here and view the "Content and social-media partners" setting to do so.
This is a short trailer, but it's positively soaked in retro vibes. After all, the show's called Spider-Noir . The teaser is in black-and-white, but it's worth noting that the actual series will be available in both black-and-white and color. It's all up to personal preference, but I'm digging the black-and-white.
Spider-Noir will first air on MGM+ before heading to Prime Video the next day. We don't have a release date yet. In addition to Cage, the show stars Lamorne Morris, Brendan Gleeson, Li Jun Li and Karen Rodriguez, among others. Harry Bradbeer, who helmed most episodes of Fleabag , is directing the first two installments.
Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, the pair behind the Spiderverse franchise, are on-hand as executive producers. The show's based on the comic book Spider-Man: Noir , which was first released back in 2009.

The best Nintendo Switch 2 accessories for 2025
Sam Rutherford for Engadget Now that the Switch 2 is finally here, you may be equally as excited to kit out your new console with the right accessories as you are to dive into Mario Kart World . Not only can the right accessories make it easier and more fun to play all of the games you love, but they can also make your gaming experience better in different environments, be it on the couch, in an airplane or in the car. We're excited to get our hands on some of the newest Switch 2 accessories (more on those below), but plenty of our favorite classics are compatible with the Switch 2 as well as older versions of the console. These are our current favorite Nintendo Switch 2 accessories, and we'll add to this list over time as we test out new gear. Though we absolutely adore 8BitDo's PlayStation-styled Pro 2 gamepad for its versatility and design (so much so that we featured it in our Switch OLED accessories guide), for many the ideal controller style is that of the Xbox, with its thicker middle and centrally-placed left analog stick. Fortunately 8BitDo has released an update to its Ultimate controller, one with faster buttons and sensitive but also more durable thumb sticks. It's a luxury gamepad experience for a rather reasonable price. — Kris Naudus, Former Commerce Writer $60 at Amazon It can always feel a bit weird to play your Switch in tabletop mode, hunched over a desk or table with the controller clutched in both hands. The Lite SE is made for gamers with limited mobility, but everyone can benefit from this controller that puts the shoulder buttons on the front and has a grippy back so you can just lay it flat on the table for a more arcade-like experience. It's also great if you just want to play it one-handed when you're busy with a drink or a needy pet. — K.N. $21 at Amazon Our top pick for the best gaming headset, the Turtle Beach Atlas Air is a good place to start if you want a dedicated pair of cans to use with the Switch 2. These wireless headphones have an open-back design, which do let some ambient noise in but also create the sense that the game you're playing is happening around you rather than just inside your head. While the design isn't anything to write home about in terms of aesthetics, it's comfortable and lightweight at only 0.66 pounds, and its detachable boom mic will come in handy when playing online with friends. — Valentina Palladino, Deputy Editor $147 at Amazon Explore More Buying Options $180 at Best Buy If you want most of the advantages of a gaming headset without all the bulk, the Tusq is a great mobile solution you can tuck into your bag. Like many earbuds made for mobile, the Tusq has a built-in mic. But, unlike most, it also has a detachable boom mic that'll ensure your voice comes in crystal clear when you need it the most. The headset uses a standard 3.5mm plug so it'll play nice with the headphone jack on your Switch, too. — K.N. $42 at Amazon Explore More Buying Options $58 at Walmart One of our top picks for the best power banks, this Anker brick might be called a laptop power bank, but it can power up much more than just notebooks. Its 100W power delivery should be plenty of give your Switch 2 some extra juice while you're traveling, and you won't even have to remember to bring a USB-C cable with you since the brick has two built in. It performed well in our testing and we like its built-in display that shows the amount of power left in the bank itself, as well as the wattage funneling to each device you have connected to it. — V.P. $135 at Amazon We're mentioning the SanDisk microSD Express Card in this guide for now since it's the only microSD Express Card we've been able to fully test at this point. In our testing, we found SanDisk's card to be super fast, with impressive sequential read and write speeds. At its best, it's roughly twice as fast as the best UHS-I models we've tested. It's on the expensive side, though, starting at $54 for 128GB, and currently its only other configuration is 256GB. Ultimately, we recommend waiting for more microSD Express cards to become available so you have more options to choose from before buying. But if you simply must kick off your Switch 2 experience with expanded storage ad are willing to pay the price, this is a good option. — V.P. $54 at Adorama Explore More Buying Options $54 at Amazon$60 at Best Buy Nintendo announced a bunch of new accessories when it revealed the Switch 2 earlier this year. Key among them are a new Switch 2 Pro controller, Switch 2 camera, an all-in-one carrying case and more. Our staff will be testing out a bunch of these accessories, and we'll keep our favorites list up to date as we do so. If you're interested in picking any of those new Switch 2 accessories up, you can find them at a variety of retailers: Joy-Con 2 bundle Nintendo Walmart GameStop Best Buy Target Amazon Switch 2 Pro Controller Nintendo Walmart GameStop Best Buy Target Amazon Switch 2 Camera Nintendo Walmart GameStop Best Buy Target Amazon Hori Nintendo Switch 2 Piranha Plant Camera Joy-Con 2 Charging Grip Nintendo Walmart GameStop Best Buy Target Amazon Joy-Con 2 Wheels (set of 2) Nintendo Walmart GameStop Best Buy Target Amazon Switch 2 All-in-One Carrying Case Nintendo Walmart GameStop Best Buy Target Amazon Switch 2 Carrying Case and Screen Protector Nintendo Walmart GameStop Best Buy Target Amazon

5 best Ana de Armas movies to stream right now
In the 10 years since she made her English-language film debut, Cuban-born actress Ana de Armas has become one of Hollywood's top rising stars, moving from supporting roles to lead parts in blockbusters and awards contenders. Even in her earliest appearances in American films, including Eli Roth's trashy thriller 'Knock Knock' and the rote boxing biopic 'Hands of Stone,' she makes a strong impression with limited screen time. She's gone on to star in big-budget streaming movies like Netflix's 'The Gray Man' (with Chris Evans and Ryan Gosling) and Apple TV Plus' 'Ghosted' (with Evans again). Now she's taking her career to the next level as the title character in 'Ballerina,' a spin-off of the hugely popular 'John Wick' movies, hitting theaters June 6. Here are five Ana de Armas movies to check out before watching 'Ballerina." As the seemingly timid nurse to wealthy novelist Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer), de Armas is the stealth heroine of writer-director Rian Johnson's clever murder mystery. At first, de Armas' Marta appears overwhelmed by Harlan's obnoxious family members, following his mysterious death. But even when she becomes the target of their suspicions, Marta maintains her integrity and compassion, finding an understanding ally in renowned detective Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig). In a cast full of major stars — including Jamie Lee Curtis, Chris Evans, Don Johnson, Toni Collette and Michael Shannon as Harlan's extended family — de Armas emerges as the most engaging presence, and Marta provides the story's anchor. Craig may have gone on to solve more mysteries as Benoit Blanc, but he's not the only one who makes a lasting impression. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Watch on Prime Video The decades-later sequel to sci-fi classic 'Blade Runner' explores the intersection between humanity and artificial life, placing de Armas in the middle of that divide as Joi, the holographic girlfriend of android protagonist K (Ryan Gosling). K is a blade runner, which means that he hunts down his fellow replicants when they go rogue. His latest assignment puts him on the trail of a conspiracy, which leads him to former blade runner Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford). Joi functions as a sounding board and support system for K, but she's not just a glorified assistant. She has needs and desires of her own, even if she can never physically touch her lover. One of the movie's most affecting scenes involves Joi employing a replicant surrogate so that she and K can have sex, and de Armas beautifully expresses that sense of longing and frustration. Rent/buy at Apple or Amazon De Armas shows up for just one extended sequence in Daniel Craig's final movie as superspy James Bond, but she gives the somewhat bloated movie a jolt of energy and leaves the audience wanting more once she disappears. She plays Paloma, a rookie CIA agent sent by Bond's American ally Felix Leiter (Jeffrey Wright) to aid him on a mission in Cuba. While Bond is suave, confident and sometimes overly serious, Paloma is exuberant and a bit nervous, but she proves to be resourceful when the moment arises. De Armas shows off her charisma and her skills as an action hero, and Paloma looks like a prime candidate for a potential spin-off. That probably won't happen in the current Bond era, but 'No Time to Die' offers a glimpse into de Armas' future ability to carry an action franchise. Rent/buy at Apple or Amazon De Armas brings nuance and heartfelt emotion to a fairly thankless role in director Todd Phillips' fact-based dramedy about a pair of friends who become unlikely international arms dealers. De Armas plays the concerned wife of David Packouz (Miles Teller), an aimless dreamer who seems to find his calling when he reconnects with his childhood best friend Efraim Diveroli (Jonah Hill) and is introduced to the shady world of contract bidding for the Department of Defense. Although de Armas' Iz spends most of her time sitting at home worrying about David's safety and getting angry about his lies, de Armas effectively conveys the anguish and frustration of Iz's position, grounding the story in a familiar dynamic. As David and Efraim travel around the world, getting themselves deeper and deeper into trouble, Iz provides a sensible, relatable counterpoint to the mayhem. Rent/buy at Apple or Amazon Director Andrew Dominik's fictionalized biopic about Marilyn Monroe is a bit of a disastrous mess, with bold stylistic experiments that mostly don't pay off. One aspect that Dominik gets right, though, is casting de Armas as the troubled movie star, whose beauty most likely prevented her from getting the respect she sought as an artist. Although the filmmaker puts his protagonist through nearly as much torture as she endured from the actual people in her life, de Armas maintains her poise and vulnerability in a sensitive and empathetic performance that earned her an Oscar nomination. The movie is often tough to watch, but it shows the depth and range that de Armas can bring to a role — which she deserves to showcase in a project more worthy of her talents. Watch on Netflix

Clarkson's Farm series four finale to show team facing issues before pub opens
The series four finale of Clarkson's Farm is to show the team facing last-minute problems as the Farmer's Dog pub opens for business. The reality TV series, which follows former Top Gear presenter Jeremy Clarkson and his crew as they navigate new challenges and projects at Diddly Squat Farm, returned for its latest series last month. The last two episodes of series four, which will be uploaded to Prime Video on June 6, will show Clarkson's preparations for the pub's opening as he receives help from his co-star Kaleb Cooper. In episode seven, titled Hurrying, Clarkson, 65, realises that the August bank holiday weekend, which is when he is due to open the pub, is a week earlier than he thought. In the next episode, titled Landlording, last-minute problems are spotted and sorted as Clarkson and Cooper hang up the pub's sign, signalling that the establishment is open for business. READ MORE: Photos from the series show Clarkson hanging foliage in the pub with another image showing a long queue of customers outside the venue. The pub, formerly known as The Windmill, is located in Asthall, near Burford in Oxfordshire, and was reopened by Clarkson on August 23, 2024. Clarkson sells his own Hawkstone lager in the venue and wanted to have all of the produce sold there grown or reared by British farmers. In a post to the pub's website, he said that ingredients like quinine in tonic water cannot be grown in Britain but emphasised that they are 'doing all we possibly can to support British farming'. The new series has seen Clarkson dealing with a range of livestock – from a big new bull and a very little pig, to high-tech goats. The programme, which first aired in 2021, brings to light problems which British farmers face and the costs of running a farm. Clarkson has become a vocal supporter of farmers and attended a protest in London against the government's move to introduce inheritance tax on farmland in November 2024.
