Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Nicolas Cage is officially set to star in Noir, a live-action series about the titular Spider-Man Noir, and every good Web-Slinger needs an appropriately threatening villain to cross paths with. Though Spider-Man has starred in more than a handful of movies and TV shows, a new version of the Marvel hero is finally set to make his live-action debut.
Early reports indicate that Noir's Spider-Man will not be Peter Parker. However, it's likely he'll still have suffered the death of a close loved one as the event is critical to the character's development. Doctor Octopus has only been adapted to live-action once , so Noir may take the opportunity to use the iconic character. If so, the villain's attempts to kidnap and twist civilians could make for an engaging detective story as Noir connects the dots between missing persons and sees them show back up, not acting like themselves. Moreover, the villain's Noir visual redesign could be quite striking, and the story wouldn't necessitate high-flying action.
6 Eddie Brock, AKA Venom A Challenging Villain To Adapt In normal Marvel Comics, Eddie Brock is a reporter who feels scorned by Peter Parker and eventually bonds with the Venom symbiote , vowing revenge on Peter. Eddie still connects with Venom in the Noir universe, but his backstory is markedly different. Here, Brock is instead a Catholic priest with no specific Peter Parker connection.
A man named Dimitri Smerdyakov worked for Nick Fury to keep tabs on Peter in Spider-Man: Far From Home, but he was never developed into anything but an agent.
