Is this a "the premise is different enough that Marvel isn't going to sue" deal, or is this a forgotten Marvel title that Disney passed on, and another studio picked it up?

I admire how Nick Cage insists on taking roles meant for actors 20-30 years younger, and then he manages to fulfill the physical requirements of the role just to spite everyone around him...
 
Sony have the rights to produce live action Spider-Man content. They gave up on the movies and had Marvel make the Tom Holland ones for them, but they've been trying to get a tv show going for years. There were insane reports about a show where Aunt May is a spy or something. Or maybe that was a movie, I can't remember. They did make live action Spider-Man adjacent movies like Madame Web (lol) and Morbius (lol) but only Venom was a success and I don't think they're doing any more.

WEIRDLY THOUGH, Cage isn't playing Peter Parker in this: he's playing Parker's clone Ben Reilly. So it may well be that Sony legally can't do Peter Parker in live action for some rights reason? Nobody seems to know. (They do have versions of Parker in the animated Spider-Verse movies.)

I remember the Spiderman show in the 70s, I'm going to go out on a limb and say this will be better.
 
This actually looks like it could be good.

 
This does indeed look good...

Although I'm a little skittish on having to see Nic Cage carry the whole show, and be in almost every scene. To me he's more the offbeat character actor in roles like Moonstruck and Peggy Sue Got Married, not a badass cool leading man -- especially with his current teeth/veneers, they make him sound more and more like Crazy Charlie from Peggy Sue than ever... hearing his narration at the beginning made me chuckle at first.
 
Definitely makes a better Spiderman than a Superman.
 
 
 
Ferchrissake, either have the balls to release it in B&W or make the decision to do it in color. This "choose your version" nonsense is nothing but cowardly corporate thinking. Allow your creatives to make a decision and stand behind it you MOOKS.
 
But black and white is for OLD PEOPLE!

Werewolf By Night was in Black and White and that wasn't for old people. It would have given old people heart attacks.
 
I used to think the world was black and white in the olden days and that's why it was black and white in old films. I was kind of dumb.
