Actress Li JunLi has been selected as cast along with actor Nicolas Cage for the new Marvel Studio produced series Spider-Noir, a live action adaptation of the Marvel Comic. The series is planned to be released on Prime Video later.

Spider-Man Noir (Peter Parker), often referred to as Spider-Noir or simply Noir, is a superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Part of the Marvel Noir universe (Earth-90214), this alternate version of Spider-Man is a noir-themed take on the character and emerges in a version of New York during the Great Depression.

In 2009, Marvel Comics created a line of Marvel Noir comics. Taking place in an alternate universe, these stories reinterpreted familiar Marvel Characters to better reflect a hardboiled/crime noir atmosphere, with most of the adventures taking place in the United States during the Great Depression era. The Marvel Noir version of Peter Parker, was created by writers David Hine and Fabrice Sapolsky, and artists Carmine Di Giandomenico (who drew his first stories) and Marko Djurdjević (who designed his costume). Though he was not called "Spider-Man Noir" in the stories themselves, Marvel creators and comic fans use this nickname to distinguish him from the mainstream version of Spider-Man.

The Marvel Noir version of Peter Parker first appeared in the four-issue mini-series Spider-Man: Noir #1 in 2009. The character became popular enough to quickly earn a sequel mini-series later that same year, entitled Spider-Man Noir: Eyes Without a Face and produced by the same creative team. This version of Spider-Man Noir was the first to add a fedora hat to his costume.
