Academy Award winner Nicolas Cage joins me, @KylemcmahonMe for an in-depth conversation about Spider-Noir, the stylish new live-action series on Prime Video that brings one of Marvel’s most beloved alternate Spider-Man characters to life.

In this exclusive interview, Nicolas Cage reveals how he developed his unique performance by blending classic film noir icons with the visual style of Roy Lichtenstein and the world of Spider-Man. He also explains why Spider-Noir is one of the rare projects that turned out exactly as he imagined, discusses the challenges of bringing the animated character from Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse into live action, and shares why he believes the series is best experienced in black and white.

Plus, Nicolas answers one of my favorite “what if?” questions by revealing which of his legendary characters he’d love to see team up with Spider-Noir.
