Threads<\/a>, Spider-Noir crew member\u00a0K.C. Lauf explained that everything had to be reworked so Amazon could have a color version on Prime Video.\u00a0<\/p>\n“I worked on this show as the second unit loader. We shot true noir style on set for a B\/W delivery,” he explained.\u00a0“The sets were all painted green, brown, and pink to complement the gradients of grey in BW. The color pass was not originally planned and required reshoots for almost a year.”<\/p>\n
Another crew member, Arsenio J. Alvarez, chimed in to say, “As someone who was on the post-production side, yes! The color was an afterthought! We got the deliverables, then the studio (not Sony) decided they wanted color. So the way to watch it is in Noir (B&W) to get the true filmmaker\u2019s vision.”<\/p>\n
So, Spider-Noir was supposed to be presented only\u00a0in black and white only before what sounds like a major push for a color version from the studio. Short of the series being one of the streamer’s biggest hits ever, Season 2 may be unlikely, especially if it cost anywhere close to $400 million to produce.<\/p>\n
Spider-Noir\u00a0is a live-action series based on the Marvel comic\u00a0Spider-Man Noir. It tells the story of Ben Reilly (Nicolas Cage), a seasoned, down-on-his-luck private investigator in 1930s New York, who is forced to grapple with his past life, following a deeply personal tragedy, as the city\u2019s one and only superhero.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0cast also includes Lamorne Morris, Li Jun L, Karen Rodriguez, Abraham Popoola, with Jack Huston, and Brendan Gleeson. Guest stars\u00a0include\u00a0Lukas Haas, Cameron Britton, Cary Christopher, Michael Kostroff, Scott MacArthur, Joe Massingill, Whitney Rice, Amanda Schull, Andrew Caldwell, Amy Aquino, Andrew Robinson, and Kai Caster.<\/p>\n
