A new Spider-Man Noir live-action series is being produced, and just recently, Steve Lightfoot was tapped as co-showrunner.

No name has been given for this new series. However, it's reported that it will follow an older superhero in the 1930s. Based in New York City, it will not feature Peter Parker, and the main character will be set in his own universe, according to Variety.

The new Spider-Man noir has Oren Uziel as the writer. Uziel will be a co-showrunner and executive producer.

Back in February, Sony Pictures TV Studios president Katherine Pope talked with Deadline about Spider-Man. She shed some light on what's to come with Spider-Man.

“It's a huge focus certainly for all of us here, and for me in particular,” she noted.

As for when we can expect this new Spider-Man noir series, there's no date confirmed. It sounds like it will be very interesting and a new look at the Spider-Man universe. And with Steve Lightfoot being involved, we can all expect something spectacular.
