Spider-Noir Canceled at Prime Video After One Season
Amazon Prime Video has canceled Nicolas Cage’s Spider-Noir after just one season, ending the live-action Marvel series only four months after all eight episodes premiered in May 2026. The cancellation marks an early setback for a high-profile project featuring the acclaimed actor in the lead role as the detective-hero version of Spider-Man from an alternate universe.
Spider-Noir was the second Marvel series ordered by Prime Video as part of the streamer’s expansion into superhero content. While the show’s run has ended, the cancellation does not signal an end to Marvel programming on the platform. Amazon MGM and Sony Pictures Television have established a multi-title deal that could bring additional superhero projects to Prime Video in the future.
The brief run reflects the challenging landscape for streaming television in 2026. Even established franchises with major talent can struggle to achieve the viewership metrics or performance needed for renewal. The cancellation raises questions about how streaming platforms evaluate success, the viability of single-season runs, and what factors influence renewal decisions for premium superhero content.
