Wait, this looks pretty good actually???

There's also a colored version trailer, you can watch the entire series in one of the two versions.

I'm looking forward to this, love Nicholas Cage, love Spider-Man, love Spider Noir as a character, and I love that he was already Noir in the Spiderverse movies.

I've been sick of Marvel for a while now, but Spider-Man will always get my attention.

    It would be funny if the black and white version has him web slinging down the road and the color version has him stumbling down the road drunk.

    Two completely different stories, a black and white mystery spiderman and a drunken stupor of a man falling apart in his post war PTSD in technicolor.

    Then everyone would watch the series twice.

    Not MCU for anyone unclear, a spinoff from the animated Spiderverse films. It's not clear of it will have any references to Spiderverse, I assume not.

    That B&W trailer looks amazing!
    They should've had the guts to not even release a color version.

    I have a feeling it was definitely going to be B/W only and the execs pushed back on it because too many people wouldn't like it. Looking at both trailers, the colored version is way too bright and has a couple of scenes with blown out colors - probably for better contrast when making it B/W. I mean, just look at the walls here:

    I think you're absolutely right. I was concerned when I saw the teaser images yesterday. It looked like black and white was going to be an afterthought. But seeing the actual color trailer, it's obvious that the "weird" colors are only weird because it's intended to be in black and white.

    When you plan for black and white you sometimes shoot films in stranger colors, which are perfect for the black and white contrast, but odd when in color.

    I thought the colour version looks almost like they were going for that 70s/80s look with the high contrast and high saturation, but it doesn't quite get there.
