The Spider-Man universe could be expanding even further, according to the co-showrunner of new spin-off Spider-Noir. Oren Uziel has revealed that there are several unannounced projects featuring Spider-Man variants in the works.
"I’m focused on Spider-Noir, but I know there are others in the works," he explained in the new issue of SFX Magazine, which hits newsstands on April 22. "I’ve talked a bit to the people working on them and I think they are very exciting. They’re following a little bit of that same formula [as Spider-Noir], that same idea of taking a genre and elevating it by putting a Spider-variant into it. It opens up a whole new world, and it’s just an extremely exciting opportunity."
Now, Uziel didn't reference any specific projects in his interview, but several spin-offs have been in development for a while. One of the potential projects he's referring to could be the Spider-Punk movie, which was first announced in 2025 with Daniel Kaluuya involved. Meanwhile, there have been rumors for a while that a Spider-Gwen movie is also in development at Sony.
If he's referring to either of these or a new project entirely remains to be seen, but it seems as though they could follow the same pattern as Spider-Noir, which is based on the Spidey variant introduced in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and his Marvel comics inspiration.
The show follows a down-on-his-luck private investigator played by Nicolas Cage as he grapples with his past life as superhero the Spider – and the opportunity to become him once again.
While it's set in the extended Sony universe and features Spider-Verse's Phil Lord and Christopher Miller involved as producers, elsewhere in his SFX interview, Uziel explained how the character stands alone as a "variant of a variant."
"The character in the show is not the same as the character from both the comics and the animated movie," he explained. "A big part of it was I have seen the high-school story of Peter Parker many times. It’s been done really well and it’s continuing to be done really well. And then Phil and Chris did the Miles Morales version. For me, it was a way to tell our own take."
Spider-Noir is due to arrive on Prime Video from May 27. For more, check out our lists of the best Amazon Prime movies and the best Amazon Prime shows.
