Academy Award-winning actor Nicolas Cage's solo series, "Spider-Noir" [[known_term_6199]], was abruptly canceled last Saturday after just one season, leaving many fans disappointed. However, this doesn't mean Sony Pictures and Amazon Prime Video are abandoning other "Spider-Man" [[known_term_340]] spin-off series. On the same day the cancellation news broke, `Deadline` reported that both companies are still developing additional series, with one reportedly nearing a production order.

More recently, another outlet, `The Ankler`, added that Sony and Amazon currently have four different series scripts under consideration, and Amazon aims to greenlight one or two of them.

The four scripts come from a roster of acclaimed writers: Kelvin Yu, showrunner for "American Born Chinese"; Alison Tatlock, co-executive producer for "Better Call Saul"; Ben Nedivi and Matt Wolpert, showrunners for "For All Mankind"; and Megan McDonnell, co-writer for "The Marvels." While the specific characters these series will center on remain undisclosed, once a script (or two) is chosen, details regarding their focus will be revealed.
